After going to film school and building his skills as a filmmaker, Jake believed that being great at his craft would naturally lead to success. 

But that belief turned out to be wrong. Instead of building a growing business, he found himself stuck, restarting multiple times, and struggling to gain consistent momentum.

He explains how he actually shut down his business three different times, not because he lacked talent, but because he didn’t understand the business side of what he was doing.

That failure cost him time, growth, and direction.

In this episode, Jake breaks down the shift that changed everything for him:

-Why being a “technician” caps your income and growth

-The difference between having a skill and running a business

-Why marketing is more important than mastering your craft

-How learning business systems helped him rebuild and grow

-Why speed, delivery, and positioning matter more than perfection

He also shares practical lessons around client acquisition, pricing, delegation, and how to move from freelancer to business owner.

This conversation covers business growth, brand building, marketing strategy, audience development, and content positioning, all grounded in real-world experience, not theory.

If you are a creator, entrepreneur, or business owner trying to grow your brand and turn your skill into a business, this episode will help you understand what actually matters.

After years of creating and producing more than 893 podcast episodes, he realized his belief about investing in himself was incomplete. It was not just about money. It was also about time, effort, skill-building, using what he had, and staying committed even when the return did not come quickly. That process cost him time, debt, uncertainty, and a lot of trial and error.

-In this episode, he explains:

-Why investing in yourself feels slow

-What it cost him to keep going

-How he learned to start with what he had

-Why skill development matters more than perfect equipment

After producing over 893 podcast episodes across the last half a decade, he realized his belief about time was wrong. The real issue was not that success was taking too long. The real issue was learning what he was doing, applying the information, and gaining clarity around the problem he solves. That process cost time, momentum, and understanding, but it also helped him better define his business.

In this episode, he explains:

-Why does it take time to understand what you are doing

-Why momentum has to be built before it grows

-How applying information changes your business

-Why guidance, mentorship, and perspective matter

-How he now helps real estate developers build their brand through podcasting

After producing over eight hundred and ninety three podcast episodes, I realized my belief about business was wrong. I thought I needed to solve many problems at once, but that failure cost me clarity, focus, and time. It also led to changing my business model over and over again instead of getting clear on one specific problem.

In this episode, I explain:

-The failure: trying to solve too many problems

-What it costs: confusion, lack of focus, and unclear positioning

-The shift in thinking: focus on one problem for one customer

-What I would do differently: ask more questions, get feedback faster, and stay patient while learning the language

After producing over 893 podcast episodes and podcasting for the last half a decade, I realized my belief about success was wrong. I used to think people had a secret ingredient, and I also thought podcasting itself would pay me.

After producing over eight hundred and ninety three podcast episodes, I realized my belief about “common sense” was wrong. That failure cost me clarity because I was missing the in between, hesitating to ask, and not consistently testing what I was learning.

In this episode, I explain:

-The failure (not being curious enough to question everything)

-What it cost (confusion, missed understanding, slower growth)

In this episode, I explain:

-What it cost: burnout and lack of results

-The shift: go where your customers are, ask better questions, reflect instead of changing everything

Travis shares a personal learning moment about “chasing the money rather than pursuing the mission,” and how that decision made him “the most miserable” he had been.

That mission drift cost him clarity and joy, even while the paycheck was bigger.

He explains how his path came “full circle,” and how his experience across multiple jobs prepared him to serve families through mission-driven work.

Travis describes Better Together’s approach, including partnerships with churches, job fairs, second-chance opportunities, and moments like the “opportunity bell” that celebrates interviews, job offers, and restored hope.

The episode emphasizes service-first leadership, being obedient in small moments, and the truth that you “cannot help everybody” and “cannot do it alone.”

This conversation covers nonprofit leadership, workforce development, second-chance hiring, volunteering, and community impact in places like Tallahassee, Tampa, Fort Myers, and Miami, with stories that show how mission and relationships drive real outcomes.

Over the last half a decade, I collected small wins, took risks, and learned that consistency does not come from motivation. It comes from having a format, following steps, and applying feedback to what is not working.

-What it cost me (overwhelm and inconsistency)

-The shift (keep what works, only change what is not working)

-What I would do differently (collect small wins, challenge myself, apply feedback)

For a long time, I thought people were just lucky, and I was “the most unluckiest person there is.” That belief cost me momentum because I was waiting instead of taking action. The shift happened when I realized action creates luck, and hard work is showing up every single day, even when you do not see results.

In this episode, I explain:

- The failure: believing luck just happens

- What it costs: waiting and doing too many different things

- The shift: being proactive, reaching out, and putting yourself out there

- What I would do differently: focus on what’s working and build a system

During the conversation, he explains the failure of trying to pivot into sponsorship opportunities before the platform was big enough. It cost him clarity, messaging consistency, and revenue focus.

After receiving feedback that his platform was not large enough to charge sponsorship pricing, he shifted his thinking. Instead of trying to do multiple things, he decided to focus on helping thought leaders who are making three million dollars edit and publish their podcast consistently.

This episode explores podcast editing, publishing, market research, business funding, consistency, messaging, and identifying the one thing that generates revenue. It highlights the difference between recording and the real problem: editing, publishing, and staying consistent.

If you are a thought leader, entrepreneur, or business owner trying to understand how to make money from podcasting, this episode explains why focus, data, and system building matter more than switching strategies.

During the conversation, Terryl explains the failure he encountered in trying to build something without fully understanding marketing, sales, operations, and focus.

He shares what it cost him to say yes to everything, to work in multiple industries at once, and to believe that “if you build it, they will come.” That mindset created distraction and slowed progress.

He describes the shift that occurred when he realized he needed to pick one thing, focus on one business, and understand the language, systems, and education behind it. That shift led to clarity about helping thought leaders edit and publish their podcast to attract customers.

This episode explores topics such as entrepreneurship, marketing, podcast production, focus, prioritization, education, business systems, CRM learning, content creation, and long-term growth.

Listeners interested in building a podcast business, growing an audience, or learning how business really works will gain insight into how distraction turns into focus and how failure reveals the next layer.

If you’re searching for insights on business focus, podcast production, entrepreneurship lessons, or how to grow a podcast audience, this episode provides a real-time, experience-based perspective.

He shares the failure of trying this challenge multiple times, what it cost him, and why he kept second-guessing himself.

He explains the shift that happened when he stopped treating podcasting like “just content creation” and started seeing the podcast as a way to build relationships, increase touch points, and help podcasters grow their audience through a consistent system.

Terryl breaks down what he is focusing on during the challenge: podcast, webinars (online training), and social media, plus consistent follow-ups.

He talks about the sales process, how a sixty-minute conversation on a podcast can help people “know, like, and trust” you, and why consistent communication matters.

This episode is for podcasters, business owners, and thought leaders who want a clearer plan for staying consistent and understanding what happens after you press record.

Terryl also shares parts of his story, including being from Little Rock, Arkansas, joining the Marine Corps, and how he learned to keep showing up.

If you’re searching for podcast consistency, podcast growth, podcast production business, touch points, or building relationships through podcasting, this episode shares the real mindset and system behind the ninety-day challenge.

Terryl shares how he started “half a decade ago,” showing up every day even when “nobody was reaching out,” and how that process built skill, confidence, and momentum over time. 

He explains the failure of expecting instant results, what it costs when you stop early, and how a shift in focus changes everything.

This episode includes Terryl’s perspective on why “ninety percent of podcasts” stop at “episode number three,” why “only ten percent get to episode number twenty,” and why “the gratification is not instant.” He also connects consistency to focus, breathing, and discipline with a Marine Corps range example, and explains the difference between being proactive and reactive in business.

If you are a thought leader, entrepreneur, or podcaster trying to grow your audience, this episode breaks down why results come after repetition, why every audience member counts, and why showing up when “no one is there” is where consistency is built.

He explains a failure that occurred during an in-person podcast recording when the microphone died after three minutes and seventeen seconds. 

The conversation continued, but the sound was completely off. The moment was captured visually, but not with the right tools and preparation. That experience reinforced the cost of not being fully prepared and the importance of documentation.

Terryl describes how capturing the moment is more than content creation. It is documentation. It is building your story. From recording a cooking YouTube channel years ago, to appearing on KATV news in Little Rock, Arkansas, to producing over 893 podcast episodes, he explains how documenting moments builds connection, awareness, and business growth.

This episode explores podcast production, storytelling in marketing, audience growth, business development, personal discipline, and choosing your starting point. 

Entrepreneurs, thought leaders, podcasters, and business owners will gain perspective on how moments create opportunity when they are documented with the right tools, skills, and mindset.

If you are looking to grow your podcast audience, improve your podcast production, or understand how storytelling builds connection in business, this episode provides a grounded and experience-based perspective.

He explains a failure moment that hit when he went from being a university professor to filling out job applications and feeling burned out. 

He describes what that process cost him, and how writing on Substack “just for fun” led to a shift after his third article got retweeted and “fifteen thousand people saw it.” He explains how that shift turned into results, including building subscribers and writing for readers across places like Tampa, Maine, and even Kazakhstan.

This episode explores topics such as econometrics, investing basics, dividend-paying stocks, risk and reward, and what research is like climbing a “watch tower” to see farther than other people. 

Steven also explains why he thinks “the price is wrong” when the market prices in no growth, and why he believes investing is “a positive sum game.”

During the conversation, Terryl explains the failure he experienced when he first began speaking publicly. He shares how he was nervous, overwhelmed, and judging himself before realizing that he simply lacked repetition. 

That failure cost him confidence in the moment and revealed the importance of preparation. He describes the shift in his thinking when he understood that practice is repetition, feedback is the secret ingredient, and execution must be consistent.

This episode explores business ownership, confidence building, communication skills, public speaking, entrepreneurship, feedback, growth mindset, and daily execution.

Terryl explains how asking for feedback reveals blind spots, how consistent execution matters during both growth and decline, and why opportunities only come when you prepare for them.

Listeners interested in entrepreneurship, leadership development, podcasting, business growth, and self-development will gain practical insight into how practice builds confidence and creates real-world opportunities.

During the conversation, Terryl explains that he did not initially recognize the importance of production. The failure was not understanding how angles, camera switches, and perspective impact engagement. 

What it cost him was time spent recording and editing without fully understanding how production keeps people’s attention.

He describes the shift that occurred when he noticed the multiple camera angles used during the Super Bowl, how different perspectives make the experience more entertaining and engaging for the audience. He realized that production is not just about recording a video. 

It is about intentional angles, transitions, editing, and keeping the audience engaged.

This episode explores podcast production, content creation, storytelling, attention retention, camera angles, business growth, and giving yourself permission to fail. 

It is for podcasters, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders who want to improve their production and create more engaging content.

During the conversation, Terryl breaks down why self-doubt often shows up when you do not fully understand what you are doing. 

He explains that self doubt is connected to a lack of education—not necessarily a lack of a degree—but a lack of perspective, understanding, and applied knowledge. 

He shares personal experiences from business, real estate, school, the Marine Corps, and building a podcast production company to show how learning the right information changed his confidence.

The episode explores how education is more than formal schooling. It includes reading books like Rich Dad Poor Dad, learning sales, marketing, operations, finances, leadership, and team development, and most importantly, applying the information. 

Terryl explains that learning without application does not build confidence. Application creates experience. Experience creates perspective. Perspective builds confidence.

He also discusses the importance of seeking mentors, asking questions without fear of judgment, and surrounding yourself with people who have accomplished what you are trying to achieve. 

The episode reinforces that eliminating self doubt requires willingness to learn, consistent education, daily application, and guidance from experienced mentors.

Listeners will better understand how self-doubt develops, how confidence is built through education and action, and how failure can become knowledge when you choose to learn from it instead of avoiding it.

Robert shares how he went from working in the mental health industry to becoming a science teacher, then starting businesses while teaching—including an online music promotions portal and a web development company building websites for independent artists who didn’t have an online presence. 

He explains that he wanted the freedom to control his schedule, but also had to learn business by seeking education through books, research, and relationships.

The conversation follows a failure arc where Robert describes moving and then losing his job ten days after arriving in Maryland, with three children under the age of five. 

He shares how that moment made him feel like he let his family down, and how it pushed him into contracting, building an e-learning company, scaling too quickly, and experiencing hard lessons—including being sued—while continuing to evaluate what happened and apply what he learned.

Robert also breaks down confidence as “repetition with the expectation of success,” explains how to handle nerves before speaking, and why he tells people to stop being hypercritical about things others already accept. 

He closes by defining Failure is Knowledge as failures being feedback—information you can capture and apply to your next steps.

Although she was successful on paper, she explains how that success eventually felt unsustainable and unfulfilling.

During the episode, Terryl explains that this shift comes from a clearer understanding of the path he is on and his goal to help leaders launch their podcast with confidence.

This discussion explores ideas around entrepreneurship, problem-solving, customer feedback, consistency, systems, and patience, based entirely on real experiences shared throughout the episode.

Failure is Knowledge focuses on helping leaders understand their experiences, communicate clearly, and build trust through honest conversation. The podcast is designed for people who want to grow through real lessons, not shortcuts.

He shares his experience of doing things randomly, struggling with consistency, and learning why being strategic matters more than talent or effort alone.

This episode focuses on perspective, clarity, and lessons learned through real experience. It is intended for listeners interested in leadership, growth, and understanding how mindset influences decisions.

During the episode, Terryl shares how he used to wing it, and how his mindset changed once he understood that “when you create steps for your business, you are creating systems for your business.” 

He gives examples from cutting hair, Starbucks, working at a movie theater, real estate, and how he started using “kindling” to remove the back-and-forth of scheduling and “remove the friction.”

Terryl explains three key things he keeps coming back to: blueprint, steps to follow, and checklist. He also talks about testing your steps by experiencing your product as the customer, and why “feedback is what feeds the business.” 

He connects this to improving how he communicates, learning from mentors, and building a business that runs smoother instead of feeling like a hobby.

This episode is for listeners who want their business to feel more organized, more repeatable, and less overwhelming by following the steps consistently.

During the episode, Terryl shares that his biggest challenge was identifying his customer, who he wants to serve, and how he can serve them.

He explains that not everybody cannot be his customer, and he learned that when he started to speak to everybody, yet not everyone didn’t have the problem they were trying to solve, nor did they have the money to pay for it.

Terryl explains that when you focus on your customers, you identify their needs and you start paying attention to their experience and their journey. 

He describes how he started to reflect on what’s working and what’s not working in his own business, and he shares examples like sending too many reminders, lack of follow up, and taking too long to reply. He talks about how reminders can be helpful, but too many reminders can make people overwhelmed.

Terryl also shares examples of focusing on customer experience, including feedback systems, testing your own buying process, and the idea that you have to experience what it’s like to be your own customer so you can fix the error and fix the minor details. 

He explains that when you instantly work on small details, you can adjust based on what you find, and that small details matter.

Terryl says the customer has to be the focus because with no customers, you don’t have a business, regardless of the industry that you’re in. 

He also explains that being different matters, and that the ones who focus on their customers are the ones who make a difference because it’s intentional.

Instead of letting it stop me, I used the setback as fuel to gain more clarity:

• Why failure is impossible to predict — but always a teacher

• How confidence and persistence turn obstacles into opportunities

• The importance of spotlighting entrepreneurs’ stories so their customers can truly connect

• Why serving first will always open the door to business growth

Failure is Knowledge isn’t just a podcast — it’s a reminder that every setback carries a lesson. Even Michael Jordan failed. What mattered was that he got back up and kept building.

This short episode is a raw update on the realities of entrepreneurship: unexpected challenges, late-night pivots, and the clarity that comes when you push through.

👉 Tune in, learn the lesson, and remember — the spotlight belongs on your story.

#90DayChallenge #FailureIsKnowledge #Entrepreneurship #PodcastBusiness

Here’s what I discovered tonight:

-The real business isn’t just podcasting — it’s spotlighting entrepreneurs’ stories.

-Confidence is the foundation — without it, launching, growing, and monetizing a podcast doesn’t work.

-Spotlights create customers — when people know your mission and your story, they trust you.

What hit me tonight is that businesses don’t stand out because of what they sell, but because of the story behind who they are. And that’s the difference the Business Spotlight makes.

Even though I only reached out to 9 people today (goal was 30), I gained something more valuable: clarity.

Today I pushed myself to record in public, walk into businesses, and start real customer discovery. 

I sent 27 messages and got 1 reply, but the lesson was massive: your story brings customers, and communities/groups are a cheat code when you use them to listen, not pitch.

What you’ll learn:

-Why recording in public (and being uncomfortable) builds momentum

-How to focus your message on entrepreneurs who already have businesses

-The simple outreach script I’m using to learn customer pain points

-Why “share your story → attract customers” is the fastest path to growth

I’m being transparent: revenue = $0 so far. Today’s focus is consistency and customer clarity—I’m not trying to solve every problem for everyone. I’m solving the right problem for the right customer.

Today’s moves

-Recap from Days 1–3 and what actually changed

-27 outreaches yesterday → 2 replies; aiming for 30+ new outreaches today

-Why I’m prioritizing entrepreneurs who can use and afford the service

-The three-question DM I’m using to learn real pain points (customers → story → more customers)

3 Questions I’m asking prospects

-Have you ever spotlighted your business on a podcast to get more customers?

-What’s your biggest challenge in getting consistent customers?

-What budget do you set for promoting your business?

Why this matters

Stories sell. When entrepreneurs tell their story, customers connect, visibility goes up, trust goes up, and sales follow.
