Author: Shane Sams October 18, 2016 Duration: 36:28
Our guest this week probably has the most mind blowing backstory ever Today's guest our good friend and Flip Your Life community member, Shon Gerber. Shon has been married to his amazing wife for 24 years, has 3 biological children and 4 more born from their hearts (that's 7 equally amazing children!) He is a retired Air National Guard Lt. Col. who started as a Weapons Systems Officer flying B1B Bombers and later on, lead teams of highly skilled military hackers on missions to expose information security gaps and then train personnel on how to best address them. As a Cybersecurity professional with 15 years of IT Security Field experience, he is now the Chief Information Security Officer for one of the largest private companies in the world. Shon is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional, and has achieved the certification for Legal Issues in Information Technology and Security… he is ALSO a Commercial Pilot and Instructor. Basically, a nerd-ninja-wizard. He created wordpresssecuritydaily.com to help others protect themselves from hackers and other online security related issues. He believes that through his membership, he can reach these potential victims and give them the necessary tools to defend themselves from these threats. So, tune in as we talk about how he can target the right audience with the right ad using objective keywords to attract them into the membership. We're really going to flip through insightful topics in this episode, so get your pen and paper handy!

Can't Miss Moment Today's Can't Miss Moment is our trip down to Florida and visiting the LEGOLAND Hotel, LEGOLAND amusement park and LEGOLAND water park.  The kids had been badgering us for months.  Somehow they had saw a YouTube video of people going to LEGOLAND and they were dying to go there.  And we finally said, "You know what?  Let's just figure it out, let's get down there, let's go stay in the hotel and let's have fun.  So, we went down to LEGOLAND."   You can connect with S&J on social media too!   Thanks again for listening to the show!

Hosted by Shane Sams, the Flipped Lifestyle™ Podcast is a conversation about building a business that actually fits around your life, rather than the other way around. It’s born from the real-world experience of Shane and his wife Jocelyn, a family who created a million-dollar income entirely online. They focus on the practical mechanics of selling digital products and running membership sites-essentially, creating valuable information and community that people are willing to pay for. This isn't abstract theory; each episode digs into the systems, mindsets, and sometimes surprising tactics that worked for them as they built a location-independent career. You’ll hear candid discussions on the challenges of shifting from a traditional job to a self-directed online venture, managing family dynamics alongside business growth, and the ongoing work of sustaining success. The aim is to provide actionable insights for anyone feeling stuck in a conventional routine and dreaming of a "flipped" reality where work supports life on their own terms. Tune in for a straightforward, often humorous look at the entrepreneurial journey from a couple who is still actively living it, sharing their lessons so you can chart your own course.
