Affiliate Marketing After 40
Welcome to Affiliate Marketing After 40 - the podcast for midlife misfits, late bloomers, and everyday rebels who are ready to rewrite the rules, reclaim their freedom, and build an honest online income without the hype. If you’ve followed society’s "rules" - study hard, work harder, raise a family - only to find yourself in midlife wondering “Is this really it?”, you’re in the right place. After being medically retired from a career in a maximum-security prison (yep, really), I turned to affiliate marketing as a path to freedom. I’m not here to pretend I’ve ‘made it’ - I'm here to share.

Seven days ago, my content was barely moving the needle.
Today? Thousands of views across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook - all in just one week.
I didn’t spend a cent on ads.
I didn’t suddenly become a pro video creator.
But I did change one thing… and it’s already paying off in ways that matter more than money.
In this video, I share the exact numbers from my first 7 days of posting short-form content daily - the ...
I created content every single day for 30 days.
Not for the views.
Not for the algorithm.
But to find out what would happen if I actually showed up consistently - even when I didn’t feel ready, confident, or perfect.

→ My mindset.

The emotional toll of building a business online isn’t talked about enough - and it’s one of the biggest reasons people give up too soon.
In today’s video - Day 29 of my 30-day content challenge - I’m opening up about the real stuff: the self-doubt, the loneliness, the grief, the obsession... and how all of it is part of the journey.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re the only one struggling, this is your reminder:
You’re not broken.

Feeling like you’re falling behind?
Like success is skipping over you while others race ahead?
In this episode of my 30-day content challenge, I dive deep into the power of slow progress and why it might just be your greatest advantage in affiliate marketing - or any meaningful work.
Most people give up when things move slowly.
But what if going slow is what helps you build depth, clarity, and resilience?
I’ll share how I’ve reframed...
The Invisible Work That Builds Everything (Why Most People Quit Right Before the Breakthrough)
Today, we’re diving into the phase no one talks about - but EVERY creator and marketer must go through: the invisible work.
👉 This is the part where you're doing all the “right” things…
Publishing content.
Building your skills.

Most of us are running - not on treadmills, but from our own thoughts and emotions. In this video, I talk openly about the ways we numb ourselves (through work, food, booze, scrolling, or even constant “productivity”) - and what happens when we finally stop.
This one’s personal. And a bit uncomfortable.
But it might just help you take the first step toward feeling again - and living again.

Passive income. Sounds dreamy, right?
Sip margaritas while the money rolls in? Not so fast.
In this episode, I unpack the real truth about passive income - and why so many of us are being sold a fantasy. Whether it’s real estate, stocks, or selling digital products, the moment you have to do something to keep the money flowing… it’s no longer passive.

What if the legacy you leave behind has nothing to do with money, titles, or career highlights?
In today’s episode, I challenge the traditional definition of legacy - and share what I’ve come to believe it’s really about. It’s not what you leave for people… it’s what you leave in them.
💡 We’ll explore how your daily choices, habits, and mindset are already shaping your legacy - whether you realize it or not.

Day 22 of 30 - Affiliate Marketing After 40
Today’s episode is a bit different. We’re not talking about money, tools, or strategies. We’re talking about something far deeper - the quiet cost of doing nothing.

I also share a few perso...

In today’s episode (Day 19 of my 30-Day Content Challenge), I’m diving deep into what I learned working in a maximum-security prison for 15 years… and how much of our everyday lives mirror that structured routine without us even noticing.

Welcome to Day 16 of my 30-Day Content Challenge - and this one’s a little more personal.
I’m Sean. I’m an Affiliate Marketer, a Midlife Misfit, and a guy in his 50s figuring things out in public. Today, I’m hitting pause on the how-to content and just… talking to you. No filters. No hype.
In this video, I’m sharing 10 things you probably didn’t know about me - from growing up on a tiny island with a lighthouse, to working in a maxim...
I lived on a remote lighthouse island for two years as a kid - and the lessons I learned there are helping me build a business in midlife. This video dives into the unexpected connection between self-trust, presence, and entrepreneurship.
I’ve been hiding. Out of fear. Out of self-doubt. Out of that gnawing question: ‘What will people think?’
But not anymore.
This is Day 14 of my 30-day content challenge, and today I’m having a real, honest conversation about what it means to finally step out of the shadows and own this new chapter of my life.

The fears I’ve had about judgme...
For too long, I kept this part of my life hidden.
I was afraid of being judged - for trying something new, for putting myself out there, for daring to believe I could build something meaningful online.
But not anymore.
In Day 13 of my 30-Day Content Challenge, I’m finally saying it out loud:
I’m doing this. For real.
And if you’ve been hiding too - this might be the message you needed.
Ever feel like the critics are louder than your confidence?

You don’t need to be perfect. Just brave.

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
