We’re your hosts, Shane and Jocelyn Sams.<br> <br> We’re a real family who figured out how to make our entire living online. And now, we help other families do the same. Are you ready to flip your life? Alright. Let’s get started.<br> <br> What is going on, everybody? This is Shane and Jocelyn here, flippedlifestyle.com, super excited to be back with you for another podcast today. This one’s going to be a little different than our normal podcast where we’re helping our people take their online business to the next level, members of our Flip Your Life community.<br> <br> Jocelyn and I actually are having a book written about us. An author is writing a book about our story and a part of that process is we are recording our story on audio for her to listen to, to go through, kind of like in an interview style format.<br> <br> Jocelyn and I were sitting here recording, and we thought, man, what a great opportunity to fill in the gaps and a lot of you listen to our podcast for online business advice and things like that. But what a great opportunity to share our story with you, how, basically, two normal people from really, really small rural communities in Kentucky over a period of time– we went through our careers, we learned about online business, and we ended up creating this amazing life that we didn’t even know existed a few years ago, and maybe just let you guys in on that, and let you walk that journey with us, listen to it, and listen to our story, let it inspire you, and let you know that you can do this, too.<br> <br> Jocelyn: Today, we are starting out with our early life. A lot of you guys have listened to us on other podcasts and you’ve heard a lot of our story from the past five years, but what you really don’t know is more about us from the past 35 years or more.<br> <br> Shane: That dated us, Jocelyn, you totally had dated us right there. What we’re going to do is we’re going to release these every week as we record them and we’re going to let them roll out, and this is going to be our story, our journey how we got to where we are, literally, right now today from A to Z. We’re going to look back and connect the dots. We were writing an outline for today’s podcast and it’s mind blowing when we were reading it. We both just stopped, and we’re like, “This doesn’t even sound real, it doesn’t even sound possible,” like, it’s incredible when you see looking back with 20/20 hindsight how all of the dots aligned and everything, and all the puzzle pieces came together.<br> <br> What we want you to do is listen to these podcasts. You are going to get a ton of information out of them that is going to help you succeed in your journey, too, and it’s going to help you see those dots in your own life, and see how you have all the puzzle pieces right in front of you, and you just have to move them around and connect them together.<br> <br> Alright, so we’re going to jump right into it. You want to start?<br> <br> Jocelyn: Oh, we were just having a conversation who was going to start, and Shane’s like, “You start.” And I’m like, “No, you were born first.”<br> <br> Shane: So, this is like those board games we play with Anna Jo and she gets really...
