Jared Easley interviewed Eric McCain, an accomplished musician, percussionist, and studio musician on the Starve the Doubts podcast. 

Some key points from the discussion:

- Eric shared his background, growing up related to the Pointer Sisters, getting his start in music through marching band, and being mentored by influential music teacher Reggie Andrews. This exposed him to jazz and inspired him to learn percussion.

- He has traveled the world performing at iconic venues like Carnegie Hall and the Sydney Opera House. Eric has also worked with many famous artists, such as Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and Denzel Washington, though often in the studio rather than directly.

- Eric performed percussion on the original Lion King animated film and the Broadway musical for many years. 

- He emphasized the importance of constantly reinventing yourself and being open to learning new things at any age. This motivated his interest in podcasting and attending this podcast conference.

- When asked for recommendations on experiencing the real LA music scene, Eric suggested checking out smaller clubs in the arts district downtown, referenced in the LA Weekly. 

- He discussed how much the music industry and recording technology have evolved over his career, from 4-track tapes to digital. While it is easier now, he feels the abundance of music has reduced some modern music's overall quality and artistry.

- Eric advised aspiring musicians to learn piano fundamentals and music theory as a foundation. Success takes hard work and homework, not overnight stardom.

- He is launching his podcast, Eric McCain Live, in late April 2024, interviewing musicians.

- Eric closed by encouraging listeners to prioritize their health above all else.

The interview painted Eric as a passionate, accomplished musician eager to share his experience and wisdom with others through his upcoming podcast. Let me know if you want me to elaborate on or clarify any summary part.

Stephanie shares her journey from starting as a freelancer after working in advertising agencies to eventually hiring contractors to support her growing business, which thrives on referrals.

The discussion extends to AI's implications in the broader context of marketing and content generation, including potential applications in blogging, podcasting, and video content creation.

The Islamic Republic of Iran is home to a Christian community that flourishes in secret. Joshua is one of the founders of the largest Christian groups in Iran today.

In this episode, you will learn the following:
1. How do you want to spend your time?
2. What is the Fire Movement?
3. What are some lessons you've learned from travel?

Chapter Summaries:

1) In This episode, Kimanzi and Jared talk about what they learned over the last year. Jared used to run an online business selling digital products, but now he's writing for Time and Business Insider. In the course of those stories, he discovered the Fire movement. Fire stands for financial independence and investing in total stock market funds. Jared wants to be financially independent. At 41, he has some money allocated in S&P 500. He wants to invest in 401 KS and Roth IRAs. Jared doesn't want to be 60 years old doing a Facebook Live, trying to get someone to buy his $97 course.

3) In Columbia, you can get an excellent Airbnb for $600 for the month. Cindy and I were in a four-bedroom, four-bath penthouse on the 12th floor overlooking the entire city for 1900. For a month, we ate big meals for $13 for the whole dinner for two people. There are mixed-use places that are catered to tourists.

4) In Europe, they've been able to standardize and systematize significant issues like healthcare. European cities tend to be more walkable. And have some public transportation. He was traveling in the US. It is expensive, but it's not as expensive as in Europe. Dave Ramsey's credit card is good for saving money. Kimanzi hasn't paid for a single flight this year. He's taken 26 flights.

Jennifer Uren believes that you can do it all, just not by yourself. Through her website and podcast, This Mom Knows, she coaches and encourages mompreneurs to find the right systems, tools, and people – their Mom Team – to help and support them so they can be their best as both “mom” and “entrepreneur”.

Jenn is very familiar with trying to juggle and do all the things herself but too often found that it was at the expense of her family, especially relationship with her kids. She hit a breaking point five years ago when she and her husband experienced a surprise adoption of a sibling set (100% unexpected – you can hear about it on her podcast). This started her down a life-giving path of transformation as she learned how to ask for help, offer help, and lean into systems to simplify and create space in her own life – and she wants to help you do that, too.
She and her family have recently left the hustle and bustle of the Chicagoland area and are enjoying discovering their new hometown in Northwest Indiana.

Quick heads up! Ms. Christine & I are doing a live Holiday audio stream on Wednesday, December 22nd at 2:00 pm ET. We would love for you to join us on the new Wisdom App! Please save the date.

Lori Rene (aka Hypnotiq) once worked at a Strip Club. As a result, she learned much more than just the mystic art of seduction. Everything she knows about succeeding in love, life, and business was learned from that experience. She shares all of this in her podcast Lemon Drops and Lap Dances. Lori is now a happily married military spouse. She is a wonderful mother of four children and is always happy to share her faith and experiences to help others. Connect with Lori here!

Please consider saying hello to Ms. Christine on Instagram & Twitter. She loves it when you do that.
