Diary of a CEO is back. Welcome to Season 2 of the podcast, Chapter 1 of my new diary. In the time I’ve been away a lot has happened and a lot has changed. If you’re new to the channel, this podcast is where I share my deepest and darkest thoughts, both…
Jim Yong Kim has an unorthodox background for a World Bank president — and his reign has been just as unorthodox. He has just announced he’s stepping down, well before his term is over; we recorded this interview with him in 2015.
“It’s a business with training wheels,” Timika told me.
Timika Downes is a school nurse by day but was looking for ways to add income after hours, and ended up licensing someone else’s business idea.
Her side hustle is a lice clinic; a brick-and-mortar facility that helps parents and kids get rid of lice.
Not the most glamorous niche in the world, but Timika’s clinic did 6-figures in her first year, all on the side from her day job, and it now runs with little time investment from her.
The lice clinic is actually just one of several side hustles Timika has going on – she also co-hosts the House of FI podcast, blogs at ReluctantFrugalist.com, and she has 3 kids.
Her story is an interesting one. It highlights the differences between licensing and franchising a business, and Timika explains how you can leverage the support of a licensing company to get a business off the ground quickly.
Tune in to hear how Timika evaluated the risks and benefits of the licensing opportunity, how she drives business, and how she’s set this up to be a hands-off 6-figure business.

Meredith Marsh is a “total introvert with over 3 million views on YouTube.”
When Meredith started VidProMom.com she didn’t set out to be a “YouTuber”. She started a blog and YouTube channel because she wanted to help families better capture those classic, picture-perfect family moments.
What she discovered was “a pretty big gap in the whole video creation side of things for people who are creating videos for fun,” Meredith said.
She started creating a video series on how to use a GoPro and some of the software – and things quickly snowballed.
Her YouTube channel was getting more subscribers than all her other social media metrics and blog visitors added together – so it was obvious that YouTube was the ideal platform for her content.
A year after starting her channel Meredith left her day job, and her blog/YouTube channel that started as a side hustle is now her full-time job.
Tune in to hear how to set up your YouTube channel for success, how to master the YouTube algorithm to reach more people, and how to make money from your new video content.

“There was no safety net, it had to work,” Kelly told me.
Kelly Hardwick was talking about her business and blog, FemmeFataleAirsoft.co.uk.
It’s a site she built to write about her new hobby in airsoft, which Kelly described as a war games sport, like the Call of Duty video games in real life.
Kelly started playing airsoft regularly in 2014. However, she was disappointed with the lack of airsoft content online for women. “Be the change you want to see in the world, right?” she told me about why she started her blog.
She started her blog along with an Instagram account, and it’s actually been her Instagram following that has become the linchpin of her business.
Her Instagram following has gone from 0-65k in less than 4 years, and it’s this popularity on Instagram that has helped her land paid guest posts, social media sponsorships, grow her social media management business, and secure other business opportunities.
Tune in to hear how Kelly has grown her audience from 0 to more than 60k followers, how she first monetized her blog, and how she develops profitable relationships with other companies in the airsoft space.

Games are as old as civilization itself, and some people think they have huge social value regardless of whether you win or lose. Tom Whipple is not one of those people. That’s why he consulted an army of preposterously overqualified experts to find the secret to winning any game.
