EXIT Podcast Episode 30: Healthcare for Entrepreneurs (feat. Dr. Patrick Rohal)
Most primary care doctors serve 2000-3000 patients per year, which means they basically get ten minutes with the patient, once or twice a year. Dr. Rohal's practice (covenantmd.net) serves 800 patients per provider on a direct subscription basis. With no insurance, and no elaborate coding or billing, he's able to keep overhead costs much lower and spend much more time understanding the needs of each patient.
We discuss the direct primary care model, as well as Christian health-sharing ministries, and other tools for entrepreneurs to meet their family's healthcare needs outside the corporate insurance system.

EXIT Podcast Episode 27: Craft Sales (feat Jenine Abegg)
Jenine & Taylor Abegg own savannahill.com, an online jewelry store. Jenine went from buying beads and wire from Michaels to sell to her friends, to having her designs mass-produced overseas and featured at Costco. It's difficult to go into business for yourself - but many people who have succeeded in "owning their job" are nervous about scaling up into a business with employees, suppliers, long-term contracts, etc. So I wanted to talk to Jenine about how they made it happen.

EXIT Podcast Episode 26: The Soft-Skill EXIT (feat. David Moore)
If you can learn to code, the path to EXIT is pretty straightforward: you're marketable wherever you go, and you can demonstrate your competence with a five minute review of your Github.
If you're a "people person", it's easy to feel locked into your corporate gig, because the value you've built is in your insights, your inside connections, the institutional respectability of your associations, and your credibility. Those assets can be difficult to take with you, or to demonstrate to a new audience.
David Moore leveraged a corporate operations internship into a sales job, then started a pharmaceutical sales business, then sold the business. Now he's effectively independent, and can play the long game on projects he cares about. I wanted to learn how he did it.
David coordinates the weekly EXIT entrepreneurship call. You can also schedule a 1:1 consultation with David here.

EXIT Podcast Episode 25: The Hot Seat (feat. Scott Fischbuch)
Scott's last turn on the podcast generated so much interest in the group and on Twitter that he decided to join EXIT and pull the trigger on a personal consulting business. He now has a growing portfolio of paying clients, and recently volunteered for a "hot seat" call, in which the full EXIT brain trust helped him to overcome some obstacles to the growth of his business.
We discuss the impact of his consulting on his clients' personal and professional success, what he took away from the hot seat, and some projects that we are now working on together.
To schedule a free consult with Scott, get on his calendar here.

EXIT Podcast Episode 23: The Mexican Colonies (feat. Tiffany Langford)
Tiffany Langford's family has successfully navigated work and life in an active war zone for decades. She grew up in the Mormon colonies in Chihuahua and Sonora during the height of the drug war, a time when the violence in those regions outstripped the death tolls in Iraq and Afghanistan. Local police and government forces were thoroughly infiltrated by the cartels and could not be trusted.
Despite all that, she describes an idyllic rural childhood. We discuss:
Thriving in a politically and geographically inhospitable environment
The role of American media and military power in protecting the colonies
The freedom that comes with state decline
Homeschooling and community building
