Unlimited income? My a**. In Episode 13, we torch the hustle-porn fantasy and get real about the highs, lows, and ramen-budget reality of running your own thing. Ron, Nicole, and Lainey dig into what social media skips: inconsistent cash flow, the need for multiple streams, reading the economy like a forecast, and why “community” (aka your Diamond Dogs) is oxygen when a client ghosts or budgets shift.
We talk:
- The myth vs. math of “unlimited earning potential”
- Jamie Tartt swagger vs. bank-account reality—plus a Roy Kent pep talk you’ll actually use
- Building backup plans, banking the good months, and surviving the dry spells
- The rise of “experts” selling shortcuts—and how to spot the grift
- Mental game: resilience, realism, and staying human in the grind
