This week on Creative Juice, Iโ€™m going solo to share the full story of how I left a stable 6-figure job in the oil field to go all in on Fortnite Creative and content creation.
No guests, just raw truth about the risks, sacrifices, and wins along the way.

I talk about:

  • Why I almost didnโ€™t take the leap
  • How I built 50+ games before one took off
  • What it really takes to go full-time in UEFN
  • The hardest part of being a Fortnite creator (hint: itโ€™s not Verse)
  • How I overcame imposter syndrome, promoted my work, and built an audience from scratch
  • The social media strategies every creator needs to understand

Whether youโ€™re a new creator, a UEFN veteran, or just curious what it takes to make a living building Fortnite games, this episode will give you the real behind-the-scenes.
