#84 Why Trading Your Time for Money Is Keeping You Broke | Adriana Martin
Descripción del Episodio
I sat down with Adriana Martin, who landed in the U.S. at 21 with nothing but five jobs and a $6-an-hour gig babysitting two windup toys at a mall door. What blew me away was how she taught herself to sell anything for free, studying QVC hosts at three in the morning, and turned that one skill into a career on TV. We get into the wedding-tip trick that changed her whole approach to money, the moment she realized she was an entrepreneur, and why her dad's prediction that she'd "be back in three months" is exactly what kept her going. If you've ever felt stuck trading hours for a paycheck, this one's for you.
