Eric Stonestreet is the host of The Eric Stonestreet Show, which airs on Sundays at 9 p.m. and 10 p.m., ET/PT. He talks about how he learned to be a successful entrepreneur by doing his own experiential learning while working as a full-time job. Now that he's done this, he wants other people to learn from him in their day jobs so they don't make the same mistakes. "You know, i've created businesses where my customers were more passionate bon my product than i was," says Stonestreet.
This week I was excited to welcome Omar Zenhom to the show. Omar is the host of the award-winning podcast The $100 MBA Show and the creator of the popular software tool Webinar Ninja. In this conversation, we cover a range of business and entrepreneurial topics including preparing to make the leap from a nine to five job to an entrepreneurial lifestyle and the challenges involved in that process.
We also discuss Omar’s personal journey toward becoming a successful podcast host and content creator as he reflects upon how his early setbacks were actually preparing and teaching him the skills he would need when the right opportunity came along. We conclude by reflecting on both of our journeys and the importance that mentorship, friendships, and support had in shaping our careers.
