There is one question that I get asked a lot ever since I started this podcast – How much money are you making? In this podcast, I talk about why it doesn’t matter.

Welcome to the 100th episode of this podcast. I want to take a moment and congratulate myself for the fact that I stuck with it. In this episode, I want to talk about how it feels to run a podcast for a year. Consistency is not easy, but it’s so important when you are dealing with long-term goals.
