It’s finally here!
Yes! The first episode of The Flipped Lifestyle Podcast is finally online!
Jocelyn and I are SO excited to finally start sharing our story, and begin our quest to help families change their lives through online business!
In our first podcast, Jocelyn and I share:
- How we got started in online business
- A story about making our first money online
- Why we believe selling digital products is the fastest and best method to make money online
- The path we took from making pennies a day, to earning enough money online to quit our day jobs
- How you can create and sell your own digital product too (it’s probably easier than you think)
The first of many to come!
Enjoy the podcast; we hope it inspires you to explore what’s possible for your family!
Can’t miss moment this week: Legoland Florida! ARRRRRRRRHHH!
Online business has made so many of our dreams come true.
Now, we want you to dream a little!
Imagine if you could get 5 people a month to give you $100…just for sending them an email.
That’s $500 a month!
Would that $500 help you…
- Pay your rent or mortgage?
- Finally get rid of your debt?
- Be able to better provide for your kids?
- Have a better Christmas?
- Take that vacation you’ve been putting off?
We’d love to hear from y’all in the comments. Share your dreams below!
Jocelyn & I will be here to personally reply.
How would making an extra $500 a month change your life?
*The audio had a little bit of echo for the first couple minutes that we couldn’t get out, but we were so proud of the content we just couldn’t bear the thought of recording it again. We wanted to get this to you as soon as possible, so we went ahead and launched the show. Next show, no echo haha!
You can connect with S&J on social media too!
Thank you for listening!
Thanks again for listening to the show! If you liked it, make sure you share it with your friends and family! Our goal is to help as many families as possible change their lives through online business. Help us by sharing the show!
If you have comments or questions, please be sure to leave them below in the comment section of this post. See y’all next week!
Crystal ~ Fine Art Mom says
I loved it!!! You are both awesome people to know and learn from. Shining examples of what the good side of internet business is and should be! An awesome example of entrepreneurship and family!
I’m so impressed with your desire to help others in this same journey… let’s see who couldn’t use an extra $500 bucks a month. I know I can…. my go to response has always been extra money to pay debts, etc. but I really want to take my daughter on some amazing vacations and share those experiences together before she’s all grown up! This would start our vacation fund. I think the art museums in Paris are calling :)!
Can’t wait to subscribe when it’s live on iTunes… You both ROCK!!
Durenda Taylor says
I have thought a thousand times if I could get 50 people to give me xxx $ that would be great! You are doing what I have wanted to do but didn’t know how to get started. I could definitely use extra income to pay off some bills and not be so stressed about my finances.
Shane Sams says
It is so simple on the surface, but so true! You just have to find that amazing content/product to give them to get them to send you the money 🙂 Figure out a problem, solve it, and then go find the 1000 people with that problem…they will gladly pay you for the solution. -Shane
Ben Dykstra says
I really enjoyed the first podcast. I am so glad to have heard you both on SPI.
With the extra $500 a month, I could use it for our kids education fund.
Looking forward to the next podcast!
George Rodriguez says
Shane & Jocelyn,
Congratulations on all your success and getting your podcast out there. You guys are so down to earth and fun to listen to. I heard you on SPI and I just downloaded all your episodes.
With $500 extra a month I would start building the Get My Wife Home Fund. We had our first child last year (he will be a year old in September) and back in June my wife had to go back to work.
I’ll never forget how she felt and still feels every time she has to leave our baby. I’m going to make her wish come true to be a stay at home mom and hopefully with your amazing help it will be sooner rather than later.
Thank you for all you have done and continue to do to help others flip their lifestyle.
George
Jocelyn Sams says
Wow George, thank you for sharing such an amazing dream. What a WORTHY goal! Just amazing. We would love to help you achieve that goal George!
Liz says
That extra $500 (actually £500 GBP in my case) would get saved or invested. We have enough or our daily lives, but it would make it a lot easier for my DH to work less and enjoy life more.
I really am enjoying your podcast after hearing you on SPI (how great is Pat? That man will be responsible for my first £500 earned overnight) you guys are both so down to earth. I just need to work out what I can sell that others would want. It’s really tricky working out what I can offer that has great value.
Jason says
Found you on SPI also, so glad I did. Great Podcast. Having a family myself, it’s nice to hear about how you started in your online business with full time jobs and kids.
$500 a month would all go into the Sweet Tea fund!
Rob says
I am so pleased I have found you guys this was meant to be and I know now I need to live like it was impossible to fail. I have just listened to your first podcast congratulations I bet when you were sat in bed having just made 11cents that two years later you would be making a podcast and inspiring others. ( For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction).
What would I do with my $500 a month or £500 as I am in the UK, definitely save up to go to Disney Florida with my two children. I don’t want to get to the point where they are too old to take and I miss this once in a lifetime opportunity.
So thanks again guys for sharing your wonderful training and experiences with the rest of us we are so very grateful.
Joy says
I loved your podcast and my husband first heard it and was all like.. YOU MUST LISTEN… and i put it off cause it sounded to good to be true. But last night he put it on and I listened to it and I am amazed. You inspired me to try to do this too. I dont know much but what I love sharing what I know.
If I had an extra 500 a month I would use it to get out of debt. We have too much as it is and we barely make bills each month and I want to be able to get out of debt so we can save and get a house. I want my kids to be secure in a house and to be able to make lifelong friends. I also want the piece of mind that if something happened I wouldn’t have to worry about where the money will come from. Once my piece of mind is taken care of with a little savings and debt free life.. I would love to invest in my kids life and be able to stay home with them and teach them and be active with them. My biggest dream is to be a stay at home mom.. or at least be able to work from home.
Shane Sams says
What awesome and WORTHY goals Joy! So glad you shared. Thank you for listening to the show and for being a part of our community! Glad we get to walk with you on your journey. 🙂
Austin says
Just listened to podcast 1 so I am late to the party but wanted to comment anyway. I love your story and it has inspired me to get started. $500 would change my life not only monetarily but would be like that .11 you spoke about that emotionally propelled you to do more. If I can do 500 a month I can get to 50,000 a month. I’m looking forward to growing and learning with you two.
Allen Underwood says
I found you guys via the Smart Passive Income podcast, and I loved your energy. You guys are in elite company as far as the other people I’ve taken the time to check out from his podcast – John Lee Dumas, Derek Halpern and Dane Maxwell. That just speaks to the immediate impact you have with your story and your exuberance. For the $500 bit, I’m currently right around that mark every month for my online earnings, but I’ll share what my initial goal was…
For more than a decade I was an independent consultant software engineer. The thing is, you can make good money being a software developer, however, if anyone out there has had to buy health insurance on their own over the years, you know how the costs kept rising. I went from spending $200/month 10 years ago and having a $20 copay to paying close to $900/month and having a $5,000 deductible. So my primary goal was to cover my health insurance costs for the month. At that point, I was going to try and grow it to then pay for the deductible, and continue reaching for more goals along the way.
I can attest – I believe my first earnings was $0.27 online from an adsense click, and I’ve never been more excited about any earnings I’ve made in my entire life…it was proof that it was possible, and even more than that – I didn’t even know it had happened – my meaning…I wasn’t actively trying to get that $0.27 – I had created an article people liked, and someone clicked it long after I was “done” with it. Passive earning online is a powerful thing that HAS to be experienced to understand what it can do for someone’s life.
Shane & Jocelyn, I wish you the best in what you’re doing. I’m really enjoying what I’ve heard so far and I plan on digging through your site as much as possible to learn from the trails you guys are making!
Joe says
Hello Shane and Jocelyn,
With an extra $500.00 per month I would be about to save quicker for a bigger down payment on a new home. The condo that my wife and live in seems to be getting smaller and smaller! I look forward to your new podcasts! Thanks for be inspirational!!
Derek says
Just recently came across your site via a link from Facebook, from Kelly McCausey if I remember correctly, and have been listening to the podcasts on my commute to work. I’ve been involved with earning online for quite some time and have done everything from blogging to creating info products to selling my design and development services. However, after burning the candle at both ends for a number of years, I stepped away from it all to spend the time outside of my day job with my family.
However, I have had the itch to get something going again and the reason is that I want to build some stability on the side. My job is going through yet another restructuring and eventually I might be on the wrong side of the changes (or the right side depending on how you look at it). So my long-term goal is to build enough to replace my current income so I can be home full-time as you guys have done. In the meantime, I am looking to mainly reinvest my earnings into the business to keep it growing but sprinkle in a few treats for the family here and there as well.
Thanks for sharing all of your information, it has already inspired me to take some action and earn $0.02. Haha!
James Weston says
Hi Guys,
Really enjoyed your passion and enthusiasm.
I found you on the Pat Flynn podcast and your story inspired me as it is a non ‘make money online’ training model.
I am a UK landscape Gardener based in Harlow, Essex and my customers are very local, so my long therm goal is to find a way of helping other Landscape Gardeners to build their businesses using the online advice and tools I can create for them.
I hope it will work!
Thank you – James
Maria says
Thank you for sharing your experience. I need this. I need motivation and frankly, the time to do it.
I could definitely use an extra $500! As a single mom, this amount is not even enough, it’s just food money, but it is a start!
I will keep listening!
Shane Sams says
Awesome Maria! Thanks!
Pete S says
I am SO glad I found you guys. I’m an SAT/ACT tutor in New Jersey, and I know I can find those 10 people to pay me $50 once I create my digital SAT/ACT online course for students out there.
I was talking to my brother-in-law about your website and podcast when we were visiting family yesterday. I’m looking forward to signing up for your course when I get the chance. You guys are great and your kids are cute.
Samantha says
What you two are doing is amazing! I am so excited to start this journey with my family. We are a married couple both working and have a one year old. Between work, cooking, cleaning, and looking after our daughter we look forward to hanging out and having time for ourselves. We are going to work our butts off and get five people to give us one hundred dollars a month! My dream is to have someone come and clean our house once a month and give me hours and hours back to my family!
Shane Sams says
Amazing goals and drive Samantha! You can do it!
Kristinn says
I am so excited to have found you guys through the Smart Passive Income podcast. I work full time in customer service, and want to find a way to make a living through my drawings. To start with, an extra $500 a month will make it possible for me to move out of the room I am currently renting and into a 1 bedroom apt which means the peace & quiet I need to focus on flipping my life. Yay!
Clare says
Ok starting the journey. Loved your podcast.
$500 a month (NZ dollars for me) would go in the trips back to the uk fund. It would also be amazing to be able to travel and still be working ?
Mark says
Hi. I just listened to your first podcast. I live in South Africa with my family. I work a day job in the city and my wife works shifts at a restaurant. If we had an extra 1000 dollars a month we could consider her quitting her job (to home school our son), paying for car repairs and saving for a house deposit. It would make a HUGE difference so I would love to know more.
Thanks
Mark
Cory West says
I love your enthusiasm.
What would an extra $500 a month do? Well, it be a small beginning. My wife and I are in our senior years and have been struggling to get by for decades. We live in Vancouver Canada the highest cost city in Canada. We have been working our butts off and making a decent living now for 2 years but the pace just can’t be maintained. We need to make a change before we both burn out and collapsed into a blubbering pile.
Your idea of selling digital products online sounds like an excellent way to make the change. Will likely be joining your group shortly.
steve says
i really appreciate the pod cast.
500$ would be really huge for me and my family. 500 extra $ would help me get more healthy food for my family by building a small farm in out back yard.
it would really be nice to know that i could start to put my family 1st and take the time i used to drive around to get the proper food i could use to enjoy them more
