If you’re anything like me, whenever you see someone quoted or featured on a major media outlet or publication, you stop and say “How did they get in there?”, or more often than not, “Um.

Finding your niche – the space you can absolutely own and monetize endlessly – is where a lot of people get tripped up. It’s less often about finding something you love, and more about deciding which passion is worth pursuing. Let’s get a discussion going on this and see if we can get past that [...]

Enough of this polished, text-only blogging. It’s time for raw content and constant discussion around all things in the lifestyle design and muse creation world. Let’s get this started with some outsourcing thoughts.
You’ll notice a new face with me in some of these videos. Seth Hosko (@shosko) has been working with me for years and [...]
