Mike Kim, best-selling author and personal branding coach, has known Henry Jeong (Instagram-bigasianguy) "since we were probably 11 years old".

Many people believe that passive income will solve everything. They don't realize the price that needs to be paid to keep their personal brand recognizable through books, courses, and trainings. In this solo episode, I go into what passive income means to personal brands and how it's different than what Robert Kiyosaki teaches in his book "Cashflow Quadrant." When thinking of passive income, we often think of investing in real estate. But as you buy more real estate, more energy is required to keep making money. However, you don't need physical property to make passive income as a personal brand. You can sell your intellectual property. Listen in for what I recommend to truly make a passive income.

I took a spontaneous trip to LA for a week, which led to recording a couple of podcast episodes, going to an Angels game, and meeting with David Meltzer and many influential non-public figures.

I gained new relationships, tools, and skillsets that I could bring back home with me. I also was reminded that because I'm generous to people in my circle of influence, opportunities seem to find me.

Over the past two to three years, I've been on a journey of learning how to channel energy. A lot of credit goes to my friend Nick Cavuoto – serial entrepreneur, inspirational speaker, and personal branding expert. One of his gifts is energy work – he is very in tune with his own energy and the energy of those around him. Recently, instead of thinking to myself, "what if everything goes wrong?" I've been telling myself, "what if everything goes great?" So I went to Los Angeles on a whim and just let the week play out. Stay tuned for episode 344 for more on my week in LA. In this episode, Nick answers questions like: What does life look like for someone who sees people through a lens of energy first? What does he see most often when working with entrepreneurs who wear a lot of hats? What would he fix if he could wave a magic wand to help transform someone? What did he learn from meeting with a monk? We also talk about psychedelics, affirmations, and more!

This episode is a little different because it's a simulcast of my friend Jerry Won's podcast, Dear Asian Americans. He interviewed me on his show and we talked about how I got to where I am today. We discussed: When it became clear to me that I could teach and be the "product" What I learned from being in the church world Separating a professional and personal identity and the importance of being self aware How to keep evolving and staying relevant Thinking outside the routine The article I wrote on racism after the Atlanta shootings And much more. Listen in for how I developed from a church's music director to personal branding expert, speaker, and author. The point is that everyone's path is not the same.

This episode takes you "behind the curtain" so you can get the most out of a mastermind group. A mastermind group can be one of the biggest accelerators of your business and life –– but they are also very misunderstood, mis-marketed, and therefore under-utilized. Here is a sneak peek of the tips from this episode: Show up with the same energy you would if you were the group leader Actively listen during the mastermind call –– look for a spark to act on. Actively contribute to the group. Contribute to the group's forward energy. Study the transcript of the call, and be quick to gather resources that are shared. Build and maintain relationships with group members outside of the group calls At some point, a mastermind group is less about what you learn and more about the energy you're around. Channel that energy! There's power in the group. Save $150 on YATB Live Recordings: You can now get the recordings from the event for $150 off!

I had to have Julia Bocchese on the show to talk about Pinterest because it's a platform I know literally nothing about. What I do know is that it's a powerful marketing tool. After a few minutes of talking with Julia, the benefits of Pinterest became increasingly obvious. It can be beneficial for people in all industries – even luxury yacht sales! So listen in, download Julia's freebie, and start marketing your business on Pinterest. Some questions I ask Julia: What kind of businesses should be intentional about being on Pinterest? What types of content can people post? How do keywords work on Pinterest? What other tools/apps can people use to help with their Pinterest marketing?

In this episode, I chat with Rhea Wong – a nonprofit consultant, author, and stand-up comedian, about raising money for nonprofits and the emotional connection between nonprofits and comedy. 80% of successful fundraising comes from the mindset. Unfortunately, many nonprofits operate from a scarcity mindset. It's in the name "non-profit" so it makes sense. Rhea talks about how to successfully raise funds with an emotional connection and not by treating donors like walking ATMs. She recently came out with a book called "Get That Money, Honey!: The No-Bullsh*t Guide to Raising More Money For Your Nonprofit." It's full of everything she has learned about fundraising over the last 20 years – seriously, everything! She shares it all because she genuinely wants to see nonprofits succeed.

What are realtors not doing right when it comes to marketing and branding? Listen in as Alex Yu – a successful real estate agent in Orange County California – gives his answer. I wanted to have him on the show because he does a great job of blending what he's personally interested in and real estate into his marketing and branding strategy. According to Alex, marketing comes from two things: character and competence. People want to buy the story, not a box with four walls in it. Alex and his team don't follow the same cookie-cutter approach that most realtors are taught and they are successful because of it.
