Yeah, so I, well, I've always loved, as soon as I discovered podcasts in 2012, I mean, that was really what inspired me to even take the leap in my job and figure out a way to make money from home and my own, catch all my own jokes. And so I started back then, one of my first podcasts was Michael Hyatt's first podcast. I know he's got a few now, but his very first podcast. And so he was talking about blogging. So there, you know, he got me interested in blogging.
And then I heard I was listening to other blogging podcasts and they mentioned passive income. So, okay, fine. I'll check this out. So, you know, I started listening to Pat's and then that really sealed the deal that he was sharing success stories of people, you know, who are just normal people who had figured out a way to help people online and make money with it. So that really inspired me to take the leap as well.
And then through Pat and I don't know, maybe Michael Hyatt, I heard even Porterfield name, you know, coming around and she had a podcast and I was starting listening to her podcast. And so I just looked back, you know, I just, all these people, these mentors along the way, so helped me, you know, achieve my goals in building my business online. I developed a relationship, you know, using them as my virtual mentor through their podcasts. And that's how it all started.
And so that was really the desire for me to have my own podcast to build a relationship with my potential clients, potential customers, and really just, you know, share what I was learning, whether it's, you know, about Facebook ads or other things in my business, building a team, scaling, you know, all the challenges that we face. And then I just love the part of bringing on other experts to have conversations like this and to share your expertise.
So I love hanging out with other entrepreneurs, people building things online. And so podcasting has been a great way to do that.
