Michael Pyle thought he had time to build his dream…until he was suddenly fired. With a pregnant wife and three young kids at home, he was forced to rebuild his income, identity, and confidence from the ground up.

In this episode, Michael shares the hidden costs of launching a business mid-crisis, what it’s really like to market yourself on LinkedIn, and why conviction (and support) can be the difference between folding and forging forward.

If you’ve wondered what it takes to go all-in on yourself (even when you’re scared out of your mind), this episode is for you.
