How I Quit My 9-5, Doubled My Podcast, and Launched A Service To Help You Self-Custody Bitcoin Safely.
Before launching my podcast, 'Your Bitcoin Story,' I was working as a Client Relations Manager in the PR/Advertising industry.
Becoming a dad in early 2020, just before the global lockdowns, changed my life forever.
As the world shut down and money printers went into overdrive, the cost of living soared month by month.
In 2022, my wife and I welcomed our second baby girl.
So to keep up with rising expenses, I had no choice but to take on a second job.
I was working essentially two full-time roles in PR/Advertising.
It was a massive undertaking, but I did what I had to do for my family.
Then, in the summer of 2023, I launched my podcast, 'Your Bitcoin Story.'
Since starting my Bitcoin journey in mid-2017, I had always searched for ways to contribute to this space.
Balancing two full-time jobs while consistently recording and producing weekly podcast episodes—without missing a single week—was exhausting.
Add to that the responsibilities of raising two beautiful daughters and being a present husband, and it became overwhelming.
By the end of last year, I faced a crossroads.
Continue on the same path toward inevitable burnout or take a leap of faith and go all-in on and myself, bitcoin, and ultimately freedom.
I chose freedom.
Bitcoin gave me the opportunity to reclaim my time.
Years of disciplined DCA (dollar-cost averaging) since 2020 gave me the financial cushion to take this step.
Instead of giving my time away to corporations, I chose to invest in myself, my passion, and my future.
What’s Next?
Going full-time into Bitcoin has allowed me to focus on what I love most.
Connecting with people from all walks of life.
I’ve doubled down on my podcast, increasing production from one episode per week to two.
That’s 100 episodes annually.
But as much as I enjoy producing content, I know there’s more I can do to help people achieve true self-sovereignty.
That’s why I’m launching a Bitcoin Self-Custody Mentorship Program.
One of Bitcoin's greatest strengths is that it’s the first monetary network with a bearer asset that doesn’t require reliance on a trusted third party—using a custodian undermines the very purpose of this core innovation.
Too often, we see exchanges get hacked, shut down, or rug-pull their users, as we’ve seen with MTGOX, BlockFi, FTX and numerous others.
People lose their Bitcoin simply because they didn’t take the crucial step of securing their own keys.
However, taking Bitcoin into self-custody isn’t without risks, if you don’t know what you are doing, and taking the right precautions, you can lock yourself out of your Bitcoin and lose it forever.
That’s why its extremely important to have a robust self-custody solution in place, and regularly checking your setup, that everything is set up the way you intended.
Getting your coins off exchanges is just the first step.
Building a robust custody setup is just as important.
That’s where I come in.
Over the years, I’ve helped numerous family members and friends take their Bitcoin into self-custody.
Now, it’s time to help others do the same.
One-on-One Bitcoin Custody Mentorship
Offering a personalized mentorship program.
No group classes.
No one-size-fits-all approach.
Just you and me, working together at your pace over multiple video calls.
Whether you’re new to Bitcoin or have been stacking sats for years, I’ll guide you through:
- Choosing and using the right hardware wallet (HWW) for you
- Best practices for securely storing your seed phrase
- UTXO management to optimize privacy and efficiency
- Running a Bitcoin node for self-verification
- And much more…
Become Unruggable
The only thing standing between you and full Bitcoin sovereignty is your decision to take control.
If you’re ready to secure your Bitcoin and build generational wealth, sign up for my email list to learn more about my mentorship program.
Let’s work together to make your Bitcoin truly yours.
It’s time to become unruggable.
A US Bitcoin Reserve sounds great… until you realize who might end up owning it.
If the U.S. builds a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve to pay off its debt, to the Federal Reserve—a private entity—could end up with a massive Bitcoin stash.
For years, Bitcoiners preached separating money from the state. But now, many cheer the government stockpiling BTC, thinking it’s good for NGU.
But what happens when that Bitcoin is handed over to the very system we wanted to escape?
Fiat is the biggest Ponzi ever—Bitcoin shouldn’t fuel it.
Is this really a win? Curious to hear your thoughts.
GM!
Love all aspects of your life, the ups and the downs, because everything is a lesson and helps you grow into a better person.
GM!
