Ep. 135 - Why Are You Listening to This Podcast?
What is the core problem that you are trying to solve? How does Thriving the Future help you to solve that problem?
...or is it just entertainment?
The best testimonial I ever received was from Jason Snyder from Doomer Optimism:
"Shout out to Thriving the Future, relentlessly upbeat and practical, all about making your life more resilient and regenerative, doesn't get involved with Twitter drama."
Wow. Jason gets it. And has described my Brand very well.

I am taking the Permaculture Business Design Course from Regeneration Nation CR and one of the exercises is a Deep Dive on your "Why?".
You ask yourself: "Why are you doing this?" or "Why do you want to do this?" (if you are starting something new).
You keep asking "Why" until you run out of answers.
In Justin Welsh's Newsletter on Saturday Jun-22, he talked about your number one Priority for a side hustle: "A successful side hustle doesn't solve a problem that's too broad or vague."

Reality Check. Doing a podcast is great until at the end of Year 1 when your hosting doubles. And at the end of Year 2 it doubles again.
Thriving the Future Podcast does not make enough money to cover hosting, plugins, and Zoom licensing fees. It takes a lot of trees sold to pay for podcast hosting.
What you can do:

Opportunity Cost is a Reality Check
Because here's the reality check - if the podcast doesn't make a difference, if it isn't solving your problems, if it doesn't make money and break even, I have to look at spending my time and money on something else. Sorry, but that's reality, and Opportunity cost is a reality check.
