A Humble Request to SPI Listeners May 30, 2025

Show notes

While we might seek educational content online, most of us aren't learning anything. We consume random information “just in case” we might need it someday. All that does is slow us down and distract us from what matters right now. So, how do we master essential skills and make real progress? How do we achieve more, faster? This is the topic of my new book, Lean Learning. It's also a vital mindset shift for anyone navigating our information overload society. If you join me, I’ll show you how to focus on the information you need and ignore the rest. To help you skip the overwhelm, I'll share the powerful micro mastery strategy behind everything I've built so far. I wouldn't be here without it, just like I wouldn't be here without you. Thank you for supporting me, and please visit LeanLearningBook.com to find out more!

SPI 871: If You're Grinding Alone But Want to Win, Listen to This May 21, 2025

Show notes

#871 What do you imagine when you think of a solopreneur? I thought it was about building a business entirely on your own, never asking anyone for help. This gave me a sense of control, especially after losing my architecture job. Whether my brand would succeed or fail, more than anything, I wanted it to be on my terms! Here's the spoiler alert, though. You can't do it alone if you want to make it as an entrepreneur. Believe me, I know the objections: "Hiring is expensive." "Managing people is annoying." But how do we get over these hurdles to level up our businesses? In this episode, I share the hidden costs of going solo and the exact process I've used to find people who would 10x my growth. I discuss overcoming perfectionism, the contrast between collaboration and networking, and red flags to look out for when dealing with people. Join me for this session!

SPI 869: Stop Renting Your Audience. Do This Instead. May 07, 2025

Show notes

#869 Imagine spending years building an audience on social media. Slowly, your followers begin to know, like, and trust you. You're now making sales, and everything is going well. Then one day, it's all gone. You can't access your account, and the platform you were using won't do anything to help. This is what happened to me when I was using Facebook.

It's your insurance policy and the best way to own the audience you've grown! So listen in on this episode because I share the three key pillars of email marketing! Everything from accounts getting suspended or shadowbanned to algorithm changes can affect our livelihoods. Join me to learn how to protect yourself, have a direct line to your audience, and make more sales! Show notes and more at SmartPassiveIncome.com/session869.

SPI 866: How to Get Better at Anything, Faster Apr 16, 2025

Show notes

#866 To grow, we might have to stop relying on some of our strengths. This may sound counterintuitive, but sometimes the skills we've mastered become crutches that mask areas we're struggling in. So how do we break free from our usual routines? Join me today because I want to tell you about using voluntary force functions to level up. I'm in the same boat as you. I've grown as a public speaker, but some of the skills I've developed are now holding me back. You see, my presentations have always relied on amazing slides. This is one of my superpowers, but it's also something I lean on instead of focusing on storytelling and audience engagement. Tune in today to hear how I plan to change this by not preparing any slides for my next presentation! This is a voluntary force function, just like the many others I've used to improve throughout my journey. Don't miss out on this mindset hack!

SPI 865: Why I Really Wrote Lean Learning (And a Sample Reading from the Book) Apr 09, 2025

Show notes

#865 Do you have a stream of ideas you've never put into practice? Are you stuck consuming information and accumulating knowledge without ever taking action? That's where most of us are these days. Learning has become a substitute for doing. Because it feels productive, we mistake gathering hacks and strategies for actual creation and work. That's why I wrote my upcoming book, Lean Learning. With my kids heading toward adulthood, I don't want them or anyone else falling into this trap. I want you to invest in just enough quality instruction, take action, reflect, and repeat. I want us all to escape the kind of growth that lives in our heads but dies in our hands! Your way out is the just-in-time information that finds you right when you need it. This is your key to progress and success without distractions! Please help me spread this message by pre-ordering Lean Learning, and listen in on this episode to achieve more by learning less!
