In this episode, I speak with author and entrepreneur Sean McCabe (@seanwes) about the practical path to making a living from your passion.
Sean is the author of Overlap: Start a Business While Working Full Time and has built multiple successful businesses in different niches. He now spends most of his time helping others do the same.
Sean is an online wizard, great teacher, and super smart guy. He’s also an extremely disciplined and organized person so I wanted to pick his brain about the systems he has in place for his business and his life.
