Hey guys,
This is only my fourth episode of 2020 and when I said that out loud it made me sad! It's time for me to get back on the horse and start to release more episodes and I am committing to doing at least one episode per week!
I talk a bit about what I've been doing in the meantime and also how good of an opportunity Amazon still is! In a future episode, I will go into more detail of what got me stagnant, and how I've pulled myself out!
I'm also going to slowly start expanding the podcast to talk about some other entrepreneurial endeavors outside of just Amazon but don't worry, this will still have a foundation on Amazon content!
Love you all for the support and I look forward to putting out episodes again regularly!
