Best Bet Skill Sets

In this episode of The Best Bet Show, I sit down with Matt Jorstad, a young entrepreneur who skipped college and jumped straight into building his photography business. We talk about the highs and lows of starting a business right after high school, the mindset shifts needed to succeed, and how Best Bet Skills Academy helped him develop the skills to win early in life.This conversation is real, raw, and inspiring—perfect for parents looking for alternatives to college and students who want to create their own path instead of following the traditional route. Plus, I share the deeper mission behind Best Bet Skills Academy and why I keep pushing forward to help young people build high-impact, real-world skills.

"The Best Bet Show" is all about real journeys, real struggles, and real wins. Hosted by Best Bet Dan, this podcast dives deep into the highs and lows of personal growth, business, and success—without the fluff. In each episode, we break down the mindset, skills, and strategies needed to bet on yourself and win, even when the odds feel stacked against you. In this episode, we're talking about consistency—one of the biggest battles in the journey to success. If you've ever struggled to stay consistent in your work, goals, or content creation, this one is for you. I'll share my personal fight with inconsistency, how my ADHD diagnosis helped me understand it better, and why you have to keep going—even when no one seems to be watching. Let's talk about the systems, mindset shifts, and real-life experiences that make consistency the game-changer it is.

We've all been told “Don't judge a book by its cover,” but the truth is—people do. And if books didn't need covers, why do they have them? Your “cover” represents you before people ever read your story, and in today's episode, we're talking about how to make sure it tells the right story.

In this episode of The Best Bet Show, we're diving deep into the difference between mentorship and coaching—two key elements of growth that are often misunderstood. Here's what we'll cover: ✔ What exactly mentorship and coaching are ✔ Why they serve different but essential roles ✔ How having both can accelerate your success ✔ Why Best Bet Skills Academy is the perfect place to develop both

If I’m talking about people that I know with the Hustle Bone

This week on the hump day hustle we’re talking authenticity! In a society where every image, every video, and pretty much anything can be manipulated authenticity is a highly sought after currency. As achievers and hustlers we are always looking for the edge and always looking for a way to beat the competition; and yes at times it can come at the cost of our authenticity. Being authentic is the secret weapon that’s not really a secret. People crave to identify and relate to the leaders influencers and anyone that they look up to. When you allow people to get a look into your authentic life and authentic self you’re actually empowering them by letting them know that everything is not always perfect. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thehustlebone/support
