Hi reader,

We are willing to fight for what isn’t ours every single day.

Raging at a driver who rudely cut us off in our lane.

Arguing about what the other guy’s got when the system is working effectively.

Fighting to run the block when we’re barely a renter.

This would be less sad if we actually did build something we owned.

But that investment, that risk, that exposure can feel too high.

Too real.

Perhaps because we secretly don’t believe we deserve to be the boss.

So we play one on TV 🎮

🚨 Want to become famous(er), grab more customers, and 100X your reach?

Stop burning budget on ads and hoping for clicks. Podcast listeners lean in, hang on every word, and buy from guests who deliver real value. But appearing on dozens of incredible podcasts overnight as a guest has been impossible to all but the most famous.

PodPitch.com is the NEW software that books you as a guest (over and over!) on the exact kind of podcasts you want to appear on – automatically.

Real ownership isn’t pretty.

It is the leaky house when you don’t have a landlord to call.

The cash flow crunch because you haven’t gotten a return on that launch investment yet.

Knowing nothing is going to happen unless you make it happen.

But it also means you can’t be fired.

Every little piece of what you have has a DNA, your DNA, all within it.

You have to know yourself, your insecurities, your flaws, and face them to even have a chance to make it.

Because you don’t mistake the pomp and circumstance for the reality of ownership.

And a space you can call yours is worth more than someone crowning you with a title and a trinket representing power you don’t really have 🤴🏾
