    <p>Let's talk about life. There will be times in your life where you need to pivot from one job field to another. I'm surprised how many people I know who have read the book "Who moved my cheese" <b>but still go down the same old road.</b> I will always love the radio GAME, but <b>I'm not</b> waiting to be saved. I am trying <b>new</b> way's to make money!</p>

<p>I was on the "You can't RUSH success" podcast hosted by my good friend and prominent comedy man Rudy Rush.  His podcast is all about success.  As always, when I'm a guest on someone's podcast, I like to cross-promote it on my podcast AFTER it airs on the original podcast.</p>

<p>Thank You for being a part of my podcast family.</p>
