You know what keeps me productive? Having more than one damn passion. Shocking, right? I’m a blue-collar, on-the-road mechanic—I get my hands dirty for a living, and honestly, I love the hell out of it. Some days I’m basically skipping to the damn truck, caffeine in hand, ready to wrestle with whatever the day throws at me.

But here’s the twist: what keeps me really dialed in out there isn’t just the work—it’s having something else I’m fired up about. For me, that’s this podcast project. It’s not a side hustle or a time-killer. It’s something I give a real shit about. So I bust my ass during the day, not just to finish the job, but to earn the time to go all-in on something that lights a different kind of fire.

And yeah, it’s all connected. I want to be on point with the podcast so I can chill with my family, hit the gym, and show up sharp at the poker table. It’s passion feeding passion. One thing fuels the next. Keeps me sharp. Keeps me sane. And honestly, keeps me from turning into one of those “I live for the weekend” zombies. No thanks. I’ve got shit to do.

'til next time!
