What It's About
An update from a former White House aide who now serves podcasters worldwide.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1790
Happy Thanksgiving! Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Last week, we heard from the owner of a business that sells pyrographic drumsticks and other personalized items (“Handcrafted Drumsticks Ignite Into Profits”). She marches to the beat of her own drummer … she also relied on her side hustle turned full-time business when she became unemployed. (Happily so, I should add.) Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from John Corcoran. We first featured him on Episode 894: Former White House Aide Teaches People to Make Friends. John describes himself as a recovering attorney. He operates a service helping businesses with podcasts. This has grown into a 7-figure business that he continues to improve. Listen to today's episode to hear John's updates...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
