VulnerABLE Podcast

This is Episode 29 of the VulnerABLE Podcast!Growing up he'd get picked on for his size, which would build an ego that was just masking low self-esteem. Now he's a successful freelance writer, and inspiring others to find personal and financial freedom!As a kid, he would face people picking on him, mainly because of his size. This would give him a constant drive to prove people wrong, which would give him an ego that caused more problems than solutions. It might have seemed like it was helping him because he’d have no problem climbing up in his career, but eventually, he'd realized that it wasn’t really what he wanted. Throughout the past few years he's taken a deep dive, and really looked within himself. His realization that his past had left him with low self-esteem has allowed him to grow and become more vulnerable. When he finally decided to leave the six-figure corporate career, he figured it would take no time to become a successful entrepreneur. He took a swing at a few different ventures, and thought he’d found his calling when he started blogging about personal finance. Then, he realized although he was enjoying the writing part, blogging wasn’t the most profitable way to go about it. That’s when he discovered freelance writing, and is now finding the success and freedom he was looking for. Now, he’s offering freelance writing coaching, and has started his own podcast called Inspire Your Success. At the end of the day Michael wants to help as many people as he can find a way to gain more financial and personal freedom in their lives.
