Although you might fail you HAVE TO follow through with ideas and start learning and testing ideas, the worse thing you can do is nothing!

On today's podcast, we're going to share some of the habits that made us successful in online business. Welcome to the Flipped Lifestyle podcast, where life always comes before work. We're your hosts, Shane and Jocelyn Sams. Join us, each week, as we teach you how to flip your lifestyle upside-down, by selling stuff online. Are you ready for something different? All right, let's get started. SHANE: What's going on guys? Welcome back to the Flipped Lifestyle podcast; we have got a very special podcast today for you because we are actually lying out on the beach. We are in the middle of a can't-miss moment. We are down in Clearwater beach near Tampa, Florida, and we just finished up our 'Flip Your Nine To Five' live event with 20 amazing entrepreneurs from all over around the country and the world. We are enjoying a few days by ourselves with the kids; I'm watching Isaac here to my left, he's digging a sand castle, and Ana is there looking for sea shells in the water, kind of, walking around. We are covered in sunscreen, laying out, getting some rays, and just thought we would bring you guys on the journey. I've got the gain up a little bit, so the sound quality might not be what you are used to, but I wanted you guys to maybe catch some of the background noises, the ocean waves, the birds flying by, and helicopter that is about to pass over our head. This is going to be a shorter episode than we normally bring to you on the Flipped Lifestyle podcast.

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.
