37: How to Travel, Make Money Online, and Create a Legacy Business - Sean Ogle

Author: Michael Leonard: Copywriter & Freelance Writing Coach August 28, 2019 Duration: 47:11

If you're looking for some inspiration to quit your job and live your dreams, this episode is for YOU! 

I got to interview Sean Ogle of Location Rebel to learn about his epic journey of entrepreneurship. He started blogging and freelance writing in 2009 and hasn't worked a normal job since.

Now, he spends his time writing, traveling, growing his brand Location Rebel, and golfing (his goal is to play the top 100 courses in the world). Plus, Sean is also the founder of Breaking 80, a golf membership site who helps connect like-minded golfers.

When it comes to making money online and living the laptop lifestyle, Sean is definitely one of the Godfather's so listen a few times and take notes.

In the episode, we talk about:

  • Sean's epic journey
  • What it's like to quit your job
  • How to make money online in 2019
  • How to start an online business with no experience
  • What it takes to make money writing, blogging, and other side hustles like membership sites

With no safety net, he built a thriving online writing business from the ground up. In his Inspire Your Success podcast, he gets into the real work behind that transition, moving beyond simple inspiration to offer a practical roadmap. Each conversation is grounded in his experience as a freelance writing coach, focusing on the actionable steps needed to build a sustainable independent career. You’ll hear honest discussions about the mental shifts required to leave a traditional job, the systems that actually generate income, and how to navigate the common pitfalls of entrepreneurship.

Tune in for a blend of strategic business advice and personal development insights, all drawn from Michael’s own journey from a structured 9-5 to successful self-employment. The podcast serves as a direct mentorship for anyone feeling stuck, providing the tangible tools and mindset needed to turn professional aspirations into a working reality.
