Summary
The Journey to Launch podcast has officially reached one million total downloads! (in podcast land, that's a big deal). Thank you to all of the listeners a.k.a. Journeyers who have inspired me to keep producing the podcast, rain or shine, every week for the past two years. You guys have been following my journey, sharing and supporting the content I produce which keeps me motivated to deliver and improve my message and platform.
My goal is to inspire even more people to improve their finances and pursue financial freedom and independence so that they can truly live the life they want and deserve.
In this special episode, I share more about my life since starting Journey To Launch and launching the podcast. Listen in to hear more about my humble beginnings in Jamaica, how I quit my job and found more freedom now without having a million dollars in the bank, the impact of the podcast, and so much more. My hope is that my story continues to inspire and show you how too you can make your dreams become a reality,
In this episode you will learn:
- More about me and my humble beginnings in Jamaica
- How I discovered the fire movement and started my own path to financial freedom
- The importance of resilience, trust, patience, and forgiveness
- How you can create more financial freedom in your life with a "FU fund"
- Ten highlights that have happened in my life since launching the podcast and so much more
In the episode I mention two special announcements. The first is that I'm opening doors to the Money Launch Club , the membership community that provides the support, tools, education and plan to reach their financial goals but the doors won't be open for long. Come join us here . .
The second announcement is that we've created a podcast index that categorizes all of the Journey To Launch podcast by subject and category, so that you can binge on your favorite topics or type of episode. Go to the Journey To Launch Podcast Index here.
