A brief YouTube clip in which a speaker (SPEAKER A) tells Bill about a year of repeated side-hustle failures and how launching a business podcast—interviewing people who left 9-to-5 jobs for entrepreneurship—became a form of free coaching that taught a better approach and ultimately enabled the speaker to leave their own job.
Bill, you're not gonna be surprised to hear this, but every little side hustle I tried failed, like miserably. Every single one. And I did that for a full year. And it was like once every couple months I try something or maybe hate it could be anything like that. I realized I needed help, let's put it that way, to say the least. And you and I know it's about podcasting. Podcasting in many ways is free coaching. And my lightning fast mind was like, you know what? I'd already done a couple of things in podcasting just for fun before this, but I was like, I'm gonna. I'm gonna start a business podcast entrepreneurship 1. I'm going to talk to people who successfully left 9 to 5 job to become a full time entrepreneur. I'm going to figure out how they did it. And I don't know if that was brilliant or me just being selfish. I don't know what it was at this point, Bill. I like to think it added a lot of value to people who listened as well. But that's where I finally learned there's a better equation for entrepreneurship. And that's ultimately what caused me to leave the 9 to 5 job was just learning from others that have successfully done it instead of just trying all these random things myself.
