How do you become recession-proof? Two words – idea + network. It’s not just any other idea, but a great idea. And it’s not just any other network of people that end up doing covert contracts, but a network of people that you’ve built relationships with over time.

Today’s guest, veteran podcaster Jordan Harbinger, is proof that this powerful combo works. He did have his share of unfortunate events – talk about literally getting kidnapped twice and being taken “hostage” by his business partners who wanted to ruin him because he simply wanted out. But he knew he had to crush it–not to prove something to the world, but just to prove to himself that he can recover. Eventually, he stepped into his own confidence and his own light to become the master networker that he has now become.

Notable quotes from the Episode:

"There's no less opportunity in a recession for a good idea.”

“Recessions don't mean the economy freezes. It just means that things take a 20% dip or so, and people have to be careful instead of reckless."

"If your product is really strong, people always find money for stuff that's actually working.”

"A lot of these people in podcasting, they view it as an easy way to make money or some sort of networking hack."

"Don't commoditize the product, go the extra mile. There's outsized returns at the top."
