About this listen
Before podcasting, before acquisitions, before LinkedIn — I tried building a dad blog.
It was called This Dad Thing.
I wanted to create affiliate income, run ads, build traffic, and eventually work from home while raising my kids.
Instead, I got:
• Burnout • No traffic • No revenue • A handful of blog posts • And a YouTube video about mulch
In this episode, I reflect on that early failure and why it shaped what I’m building today.
Sometimes the first attempt isn’t supposed to win. It’s supposed to prepare you.
