Young and Profiting with Hala Taha
Business:Entrepreneurship
When Vishen Lakhiani moved to New York City, he was making $7,500 a month at a company with a difficult, problematic, and even racist culture. After creating multiple streams of passive income and taking baby steps toward his goal of running his own meditation business, he was able to quit his job and eventually scale his company, Mindvalley, to nine figures. Vishen’s story is one of many entrepreneurial success stories we’ve heard on Young and Profiting Podcast, and in this episode, you’ll learn about the fundamentals of starting a business from these successes.
Featured in this episode are Vishen Lakhiani, founder and CEO of Mindvalley; Nick Loper, founder of the popular blog and podcast, Side Hustle Nation; Josh Kaufman, author of The Personal MBA; and Alex Hormozi, founder of Acquisition.com and bestselling author of $100M Offers: How To Make Offers So Good People Feel Stupid Saying No.
In this episode, Hala and various guests will discuss:
- Calculating your minimal livable income (MLI)
- Do what you love, what you’re good at, and what will make you money
- Don’t quit your day job until you can afford to
- Generating passive income
- Testing your business idea
