In this heartfelt solo episode, Jr opens up about a lesson that reshaped his entire podcasting journey. After his first speaking engagement left him questioning what he’d been teaching, he realized he’d been following templates instead of truth.

He shares how chasing formulas, quick monetization, and the “perfect” structure nearly stripped the authenticity from his voice—and how he rebuilt his creative foundation by focusing on community, experimentation, and real human connection.

💡 Key Takeaways:

• ​Don’t copy templates—customize your structure and stay flexible.
• ​Monetization should fit your growth, not force it.
• ​Ignore one-size-fits-all hacks—build a system that works for your audience.
• ​Remember why you started, and never lose the human side of your show.
