It’s only been a few weeks since he was last here and he just won’t leave us alone. But seriously…
After his guest spot on Episode #071, Jeff Goins asked if there was anything he could do especially for you as a listener and fan of the Read to Lead Podcast.
Well, after seeking feedback on the show, as well as from newsletter readers and members of our Facebook group, the answer was obvious: bring Jeff back to answer questions submitted by you.
I’ve curated some of my favorites. If you submitted a question, be sure a take a peek below to see if yours made the cut.

Listener Questions
- Josh Cook: What is your strategy for the year surrounding learning and personal development?
- Michael Werner: What suggestions do you have for good ways for teachers to explore outside income opportunities?
- Liz Covart: How can those of us who have found our life’s work turn our passion projects into a paid career?
- Kent Sanders: With blogging vs podcasting: Is one better than the other? Or does it depend less on the medium, and more on the connections the person is making and the value they’re bringing? Also, what about audio blogging? Taking an existing written blog and creating a podcast around it?
- Marcus Kusi: How do you decide what to say NO to, especially considering how busy you appear to be?
- Brett Parry: Regarding the Portfolio Lifestyle: Do you feel it’s better to have two or more of your focus areas closely related, or should people be looking wider? (The latter arguably spreads the risk)
- Jeff Sanders: I love what I do, but I always asks what if. What if there’s something better out there. What if I’m supposed to be doing something I’m not currently doing? Will that feeling ever go away? Or is there a way to feel like I’ve hit the nail on the head?
- Ken Zimmerman Jr.: Is your calling something that changes over time, or does it remain the same?
- Joseph Berman: In this era, where change is the norm, is there such a thing as stability? And, if so, how can we achieve it?
