In this electrifying episode, we’re joined by Rob Cressy entrepreneur, content creator, and AI innovator who takes us through his rollercoaster journey from selling ads on an obituary website to leading a global movement.
Rob shares how he walked away from a six-figure career to chase his dream of getting paid to talk about sports, built a media company from scratch, and embraced AI as his ultimate co-pilot all while staying grounded in heart, humanity, and relentless self-improvement.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, uninspired, or unsure how to take that leap toward your dream life, this episode is your wake-up call.
Key Topics Discussed:
Trading comfort for dreams:
- How Rob quit a $250K/year job with zero clients, no website, and no backup plan to pursue his dream of talking sports for a living.
- Why he believed selling ads on an obituary site was the hardest thing he’d ever do and why everything after felt easy.
Mindset overhaul: from survival to high performance:
- How he built himself into a high performer, one micro habit at a time, starting with reading 30 minutes every morning (after realizing most CEOs read 60 books a year).
- His game-changing approach to stacking tiny wins over time from waking up 3 minutes earlier each week to building a growth mindset, brick by brick.
AI, business growth, and “Soul Data”:

Leading a Global Movement:
- How a 3-day transformational coaching conference pushed Rob to redefine his identity from entrepreneur to leader of a global movement.
