Do you want to quit your job and learn how to make money online?

Before you give your notice at work, make sure you listen to this episode a few times. Because in 2017, I did just that.

I left my corporate job and 6-figure salary for the unknowns of entrepreneurship. And I had made $200 from my blog...EVER! 

In this episode, I'll talk more about what it's really been like leaving a $100,000+ 9-5 to build an online business and pursue professional golf. It's been a wild ride the past few years and hope this episode can give you more insight and a behind the scenes look!
