Customer Reviews
Cuts Through the Noise
In the world of “SIX FIGURES IN 3 MONTHS!”, the Subtle Art of Not Yelling is a breath of fresh air that is both grounded and expansive. The show provides meaningful insights and truths that help me feel connected to what matters most. Highly recommend this show.
Marketing Advice for the Non-Hustler
I absolutely love this show. Bill and Miles' calm voices are so soothing and their advice is even better. As someone just starting my marketing journey and who has always struggled with the "icks" that seem to come with it, it has been such a blessing to know there are other people who feel the same way. The advice on this show is perfectly tailored for those who hate the hustle, don't have that type A gusto, but still want to genuinely and successfully sell their products. Thank you so much for all you do!
Perfection is Equivalent to Happiness as a noun
Perfection is Boring- really like this episode. Perfection kills the things you love doing that you simply love doing. It ruins the love and makes it an obtainable goal instead. Like Happiness. It’s not something singular. “If I have that, THEN I’ll be happy”. That isn’t happiness. Same as creating a piece of art. Oh, if I can just do THIS, THEN it will be perfect. There is always more and more and more you will find imperfect, and doing that will drive you mad.
You guys are great to listen to!
