I got laid off Here's What I Did Next

I was fired twice. I got laid off once. And you're going to be astonished at what I did next — I took a bet out. Not in Vegas. Not on a bracket. I bet on myself.

July 2001. I made a decision that it was easier for me to control my life than for somebody else to control it for me. Problem was, I didn't know how to run a business. I'm a CPA. I knew what a financial statement looked like. I knew what a tax return looked like. I did not know how to make an offer, how to sell, or how to market anything.

I moved anyway. Because certainty comes before competence.

In this episode I walk you through exactly what I did next, the questions I asked that opened doors, and the platform God laid out for success — be certain, do the next thing, then you start having. I also get into why so many of us are chasing a version of success that God never assigned us, and what happens when somebody sees something in you that you haven't seen in yourself yet.

In this episode:

▪️ Why certainty comes before competence — and how to move before you feel ready
▪️ The difference between being successful and being a success (they're not the same thing)
▪️ How getting "cultureized" keeps you living somebody else's assignment

It's 2026. There are fewer jobs than there were in 2001. You may never get fired — but you should never be unprepared. Press play.
