Here’s the tldr version: I (mis)understood the assignment…or was I ghosted? I publicly pitched myself. I made a behind-the-scenes video of my pitch.

Welcome to story time. Pull up a chair, flip your mug right side up, and lean in real close because I’m about to pour the tea.

Do I want to? No. Not at all.

But after I posted a VERY PUBLIC PITCH, people asked for an update. A follow up, if you will.

If you’re unfamiliar with what I’m referring to, you can find the vlog on YouTube >>here<<.

The truth of the matter is: I MADE THE VLOG FOR ME.

I simply documented the process of:

• Trying new things.
• Getting uncomfortable.
• Pitching for the fun of it.
• Forcing myself to be seen as a I build (even though all I want to do is hide).

I also made the vlog for you. I posted it because it’s tempting to watch people scale their business and imagine it’s easier for them.

That—somehow—the only answer is yes, the investment checks flow like a chocolate fountain, and growth is effortless.

But the truth of the matter is that scaling comes with a bucket of NOs before breakfast, money is managed like a level 10 Tetris game, and growth looks like dirt under your fingernails and nestled in between your teeth.

My vlog was just a tiny look at the reality of what it means to try new things.

The goal? To encourage you (and me) to keep trying, iterating, and stumbling forward toward success.

One day we’ll look back and reminisce how far we’ve come.

To pitching wild ideas,
