About this column
In this eighth episode of the Creative Solopreneur Podcast, we get to see what happens when you mix one very tired-and-stretched-to-the-creative-max interviewer {that would be me} with a very thoughtful interviewee {that would be David Crandall of Heroic Destiny} who happens to be her good friend and business confidante. Hilarity, chortles, and some very solid content for creative solopreneurs ensue.
Here are the terrific people and things mentioned in our conversation:
- Tim Ferriss, The 4-Hour Workweek
- Location Independence and Lifestyle Design
- Srinivas Rao, Blogcast FM
- Mark Lawrence, Lifestyle Ignition
- Sonia Simone, Remarkable Communication and Copyblogger
- Josh Crocker, JoshCrocker.com
- Dave Navarro, The Launch Coach
- Third Tribe Marketing
- Scott Stratten, Unmarketing
- David Crandall and Srini Rao’s ebook, How To Grow Your Blog Through Interviews [not an affiliate link]
- Corbett Barr, Think Traffic and Free Pursuits
Listen in as David shares his take on the template lifestyle versus lifestyle design, the psychological trajectory of going from high-paying 9-to-5 to online business, why he’s obsessed with mindmapping, what not to do when you’re starting out with a business-oriented blog, and his three-part advice for new and aspiring creative enterprises.

P.S. Lucky for me David’s a pretty laid back guy, because as you’ll hear, I really lost it in the first few minutes! I decided to leave the hijinks in, just for fun. :)

Abby, I just downloaded this and will give it a listen within the next week. I’m in Third Tribe Marketing and am familiar with a lot of the people and sites mentioned.
Hey, John! —
Thanks for stopping by. :) As you’ll hear, this episode is a leeetle different from my usual episodes in that I could not. stop. laughing during the intro. I’m involved in three intensive business coaching programs right now, running my own business, and doing NaNoWriMo and let’s just say: I’m tired at night and being tired makes me punchy!
Anyhow, hope you thoroughly enjoy. David is a strong up-and-comer. :)
Well, it’s also entirely possible that the two of us make each other laugh even when we’re NOT tired. :D
Now, that is the truth. :)
