So, you started a business or a side hustle with an amazing vision. It fulfills you and it serves others. You dreamt it would give you plenty of time and money so that you could live the way you please. However, the reality is that you’re not making enough, you’re working your tail off, and your soul is being diminished in the process.
If that’s you, my guest, Mike Michalowicz, the author of the wicked popular "Profit First," would say you’re in entrepreneurial poverty, but he’s here to change that. Mike is a speaker, author, and small business expert. He’s helped thousands of people around the world start businesses they love and grow them into thriving organizations. He joins me for a brutally honest conversation about coming back from extreme losses, prioritizing profit for your business or side hustle, and overcoming “superhero syndrome.” For more from Mike, check out his new book, Get Different.

ATG 65: Do more than just the right thing. My conversation on the surprising power of service with Steven J. Anderson

We all want to do good in the world. We want to be good friends, good parents, good employees, and good leaders, but what would happen if we took it all one step farther? What if you went beyond good in every goal you set for yourself?
Stephen J. Anderson is an internationally known business strategist, entrepreneur, author, and speaker. He's founded more than a dozen growing and diversifying businesses, and he's a big part of the reason I got to open for Dolly Parton at the Ryman Auditorium. He joins me for a conversation on how to go the extra mile during every goal you set for yourself while you serve those around you.
