FL 100 – Pat Flynn joins us to celebrate our 100th episode!

We've officially reached the 100th episode for the Flipped Lifestyle podcast! Before we get started, we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their dedication to take action. We've been around for almost 2 years now and it's such an honor how we've all grown as a community. Thank you for all the support and most especially the iTunes reviews. The reviews help secure our rankings and in turn help us reach more aspiring online entrepreneurs. So, if we have impacted your life in anyway and you haven't written us a review yet, please do so because we would absolutely love to receive one from you! We have a special episode for all of our avid listeners this week. As some of you know, we usually get a member on air for a free consulting call to help them take their business to the next level and then let you guys listen in, but this time it's going to be a bit different. Our guest this week is our very good friend and mentor, the crash test dummy of online business, Pat Flynn. Pat has been in the online business scene since 2008. He used to be an architect, until the industry took an economic downturn. Always the optimist, Pat took charge, launched himself in a catapult and began a new life-changing journey. His website smartpassiveincome.com and the Smart Passive Income podcast has touched the lives of thousands of people in an international level. His mindset along with the choices he made has created an amazing ripple effect. Despite all that fame and fortune, Pat firmly believes that the best part about his job is the amount of quality time he gets to spend with his wife and kids -- now, that's a true family man. We have so many things in common with him and we are just thrilled to share our backstory with y'all, like how Shane came across a random podcast one day (while mowing the lawn!) and was just struck with immediate certainty that this is what we needed to flip our lives upside-down. Also, we're gonna talk about family, life and lessons we've learned along the way. So, hold onto your seats and let's get this show on the road.
