Episode Details

It’s easy to look at today’s top podcast hosts and think, "Wow, they had it easy." But deep down, we know that’s not the case. Even the biggest names in the game started from zero and faced the same doubts, fears, and setbacks as you. 

That’s why I invited John Lee Dumas to join me for this episode and unpack the REAL story behind Entrepreneurs on Fire, how it almost didn’t happen, and how he battled massive self-doubt to turn his vision into one of the most successful podcasts in history. 

So if you're feeling that gap between where you are now and where you want to be with your podcast, grab your headphones and lean in — you might be closer to success than you think. Hit play and let's make your business bingeworthy.
