About this listen

It’s been 18 months since Cory walked away from his W2 and bet on himself full time. In this episode, we pull back the curtain and give an honest check-in on what actually happens after you make that leap. Not the highlight reel. Not the Instagram version. The real story: freedom, pressure, uncertainty, confidence, doubt, and everything in between. We talk through why no one ever hands you permission to leave your job, why waiting until your business replaces your salary keeps most people stuck, and what it really feels like to live without predictable paychecks or built-in structure. Cory shares how income dipped before it started to stabilize, how months of zero dollars tested his mindset, and why learning to plant seeds six months ahead became non-negotiable. We also break down the hidden costs of entrepreneurship, from investing in ads and people to managing cash flow when bills stay fixed but revenue doesn’t. This conversation also dives into how our business has evolved over the past year and a half, the different income silos we’re building, why small but mighty real estate portfolios outperform door-count chasing, and how we’re thinking about active income alongside long-term wealth. If you’re considering leaving your W2, already made the jump, or feel stuck waiting for the “perfect time,” this episode will give you clarity, perspective, and a much more realistic framework for what the path actually looks like.
