I also get, check out what happened.

That I wanted it to be, but what was this called?

What's this call?

And I've made it.

To these terms.

Really?

So how do you create a multi-million dollar business starting with only $10,000 without having much of a plan, without doing a lot of research, without even knowing how to use Shopify or basically you had to learn the internet from scratch?

Well, we have talked about this a little bit on this podcast, but I finally wanted to do an episode with a very special person.

my mother-in-law.

So about five years ago, my mother-in-law sat me down.

She goes, Sam, I have this idea for a business.

I want to start this pillow company.

Can you teach me how to do it?

I gave the most generic advice ever on how to do it, not expecting her to do anything.

Turns out she listened and she Googled and found actually significantly better advice.

And she built a company that is now making millions a year in revenue.

She started it in her early 50s and it's killing it.

And after years of just kind of quietly chugging along and building this epic business, I asked my mother-in-law, Smithy Sodine, to come on the pod and give her story.

If you are in your 30s, 40s, or 50s, and you are thinking about starting a business and you're sort of overthinking, you're not sure what to do, or even if you're in your 20s and you want to figure out how to change your life, this is probably the most relatable and I think inspirational episodes that we have ever done.

So it's a very special episode for me for obvious reasons.
