Most of us are running - not on treadmills, but from our own thoughts and emotions.

In this video, I talk openly about the ways we numb ourselves (through work, food, booze, scrolling, or even constant “productivity”) - and what happens when we finally stop.

This one’s personal.

And a bit uncomfortable.

But it might just help you take the first step toward feeling again - and living again.

🎯 In this episode: The hidden ways we self-medicate

Why emotional avoidance keeps us stuck What changes when you stop running

Day 22 of 30 - Affiliate Marketing After 40

Today’s episode is a bit different.

We’re not talking about money, tools, or strategies.

We’re talking about something far deeper - the quiet cost of doing nothing.

Drawing on the powerful work of Bronnie Ware (author of "The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying"), I explore how waiting for “the right time” slowly drains our happiness, passion, and potential.

I also share a few personal stories - from working 12-hour shifts in a maximum-security prison, to missing moments with my kids, to realizing how many years I’d postponed my own happiness.

This isn’t just about affiliate marketing.

In fact, in this video I say clearly: affiliate marketing might not be for you.

The real purpose?

To help you find the vehicle that will lead you to a happy, fulfilled life - whatever that looks like for you.

🎥 Day 20 of my 30-day content challenge, and something surprising is happening...

I’m actually starting to enjoy this.

Not because it’s easy. Not because I’ve gone viral. But because I’ve finally let go of perfection - and I’m just showing up.

In today’s video, I share 5 big lessons I’ve learned after 20 days of daily content creation - including: ✅ Why trying to be someone else will never work ✅ How to get better at video (even when you feel awkward) ✅ The truth about publishing when no one is watching ✅ Why “marrying the process” changes everything ✅ And the real transformation that happens when you stop quitting too soon

This one’s honest. Messy. And exactly what I needed to hear on Day 1.

Are you really free - or just following a schedule someone else built for you?

In today’s episode (Day 19 of my 30-Day Content Challenge), I’m diving deep into what I learned working in a maximum-security prison for 15 years… and how much of our everyday lives mirror that structured routine without us even noticing.

I’ll walk you through:

What a “structured day” looks like inside a prison.

Why routines outside prison can feel just as confining.

The surprising truth: routine isn’t the enemy - unconscious routine is.

How to reclaim control over your time and create structure that moves you toward your dreams.

💥 Plus, I’m giving away my FREE mini audio course: 🎧 Life Lessons Learned in Maximum Security Prison (7 powerful lessons you won’t forget)

🔐 You’re more free than you think. The question is - are you using the keys?

👇 Let me know in the comments: What part of your routine needs to change? What “cell” have you accepted as normal for too long?

🎯 Day 18 of 30 – Raw, Real & Unfiltered

Today, I’m being brutally honest with you.

I didn’t know what was missing from my life… And I still don’t.

For years I followed the “safe path.” Showed up. Did the job. Paid the bills. And yet - something always felt off.

In this episode, I share:

What it felt like to live in that fog of “Is this it?”

A personal story about chasing a dream (flying planes) that turned out not to be what I expected

Why most people quit when the excitement wears off

The mistake I made with affiliate marketing 10 years ago

Why grit beats shiny objects every time

And how I’m approaching this journey differently now

🎥 10 Things You Might Not Know About Me (But Probably Should)

Welcome to Day 16 of my 30-Day Content Challenge - and this one’s a little more personal.

I’m Sean. I’m an Affiliate Marketer, a Midlife Misfit - and a guy in his 50s figuring things out in public. Today, I’m hitting pause on the how-to content and just… talking to you. No filters. No hype.

In this video, I’m sharing 10 things you probably didn’t know about me - from a couple of years on a tiny island with a lighthouse, to working in a maximum-security prison, to being a soft-hearted granddad called “Poo Bear.” 🧸

You’ll hear about: ✔️ The remote island that shaped my self-reliance ✔️ All the jobs I’ve worked just to stay afloat (including concrete edging by the metre!) ✔️ My unexpected early retirement and the turning point it created ✔️ Why I’m *still* scared to hit publish… but do it anyway ✔️ And how all of this is fuelling the online business I’m building from scratch

This is more than a list - it’s a snapshot of a journey. If you’re in your 40s, 50s, or beyond, wondering if it’s too late to change direction… it’s not.

💥 Let’s prove the best chapters come after the midlife plot twist.

For too long, I kept this part of my life hidden.

I was afraid of being judged - for trying something new, for putting myself out there, for daring to believe I could build something meaningful online.

But not anymore.

In Day 13 of my 30-Day Content Challenge, I’m finally saying it out loud: I’m doing this.

For real.

And if you’ve been hiding too - this might be the message you needed.
