You might already be earning an income as a writer, author, videographer, photographer, filmmaker, musician, or artist.  And you're looking to transition from being a freelancer for hire to monetizing your creative expertise.  Perhaps you’ve been thinking about starting a podcast, launching a product, building a course, writing a book, forming a community, starting a YouTube channel, or hosting a live event.  You want to leverage your experience, skills, and knowledge to build new income streams for yourself so you can get out of the “rat race” - stop trading your time for money.   I get you. I'm married to a creative person.  We've built several income streams together.  And I work with creatives to package, price, and promote their expertise all the time.On this podcast, I'll discuss and bring on guests to discuss proven frameworks (like marketing funnels, value ladders, marketing flywheels, and building communities from podcasts).  And, we're going to make it fun. In between all the serious talk, we're going to throw in some humor, dad jokes, to make this process playful and entertaining.I'll coach creatives, in real-time on the show, how to transition from freelancer to expert.  We'll discover together what income streams are right for you, so you can create new income streams and get paid whether you're working or not.  Fri, 16 Oct 2026 00:29:34 +0000 https://www.buzzsprout.com/57179/10307256-the-last-episode.mp3 555 Episodes!  I revisit my guiding scripture in this process - Psalm 90:12 - "Teach us to number our days, so that we may gain a heart of wisdom."   and discuss the Top Five Regrets of the Dying" that started it all in Episode 1 of this podcast.  Thank you, from the bottom of my heart to everyone that's listened to this podcast over the last 6 years.  Your involvement, your influence, and your inspiration have taken me farther than I ever dreamed possible.  I have no regrets - only gratefulness.  I have no idea if after 5 months whether I'll be continuing this podcast or not, but I sure hope you'll stay connected to me at EricNordhoff.com either way.  Fri, 01 Apr 2022 05:00:00 +0000 https://www.buzzsprout.com/57179/10307256-the-last-episode.mp3 https://www.buzzsprout.com/57179/10348424-immeasurably-more-than-all-we-ask-or-imagine-maribeth-dodd.mp3 I'm grateful that my last interview for this podcast is with my sister-in-law, Maribeth Dodd .  Maribeth is a leader.  She is a business coach of leaders in the corporate world, in network marketing, and leaders in ministry.  She shares vulnerability about balancing her work along with all of her other personal responsibilities.  And, how sometimes the best place to be is a little bit scared.   Wed, 30 Mar 2022 19:00:00 +0000 https://www.buzzsprout.com/57179/10348424-immeasurably-more-than-all-we-ask-or-imagine-maribeth-dodd.mp3 https://www.buzzsprout.com/57179/episodes/10348424-immeasurably-more-than-all-we-ask-or-imagine-maribeth-dodd.mp3 I'm grateful to my sister-in-law, Maribeth Dodd , on the podcast.  Maribeth is a leadership coach.  She is a business coach of leaders in the corporate world, in network marketing, and in ministry.  She shares vulnerability about balancing her work along with all of her other personal responsibilities.  And, how sometimes the best place to be is a little bit scared.   Wed, 30 Mar 2022 19:00:00 +0000 https://www.buzzsprout.com/57179/episodes/10348424-immeasurably-more-than-all-we-ask-or-imagine-maribeth-dodd.mp3 https://www.buzzsprout.com/57179/10340002-the-case-for-heaven-lee-strobel.mp3 Award-winning and best-selling author, Lee Strobel , joins me for one of my final interviews.  It is fitting to talk about the end of life at this time, as I want listeners to remember what's most important in your life as you live it.  This conversation really impacted me.  I hope it impacts you too.  See the trailer and watch The Case For Heaven Movie in a theatre near you April 4-6, 2022.
