    Have you ever stood at the precipice of asking for help, but couldn't bring yourself to take that final step? That paralyzing feeling of vulnerability might be more universal than we realize.When I lost everything I owned to a storage auction over an $800 debt, I faced a brutal choice: ask for help or let go of a decade's worth of memories and possessions. The anxiety of putting others in an uncomfortable position—of them having to say no, or saying yes when they couldn't afford to—led me to choose loss over vulnerability. It's a decision that sparked profound reflection on why asking for help feels so impossibly difficult, despite how simple others make it sound.This raw, unfiltered conversation explores what happens when financial hardship forces us to reconsider what matters most. Would you rather lose all your money or all your memories? Before my storage auction, I might have chosen differently. But now I understand that sometimes, in our society, money is what protects our memories in the first place.Despite this setback, I'm moving forward with intentional growth, expanding my consulting firm Wrap Shit With P to include VA services for creatives and businesses. My approach isn't about aggressive marketing or rapid scaling—it's about moving with purpose, humility, and faith that the right opportunities will find me as I continue building authentically.Whether you're navigating your own losses, struggling with asking for help, or building a business that aligns with your values rather than external expectations, this episode offers solidarity in your journey. Join the conversation on social media—tell me which you'd choose to lose: your money or your memories? And let's talk honestly about why asking for help feels so much harder than it should.To book us for VA Services... https://calendly.com/wrapshitwithpTalk yo sh!t… Sh!t-Talker!!Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREEDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

    Growth strategy consultant S.A Grant joins the podcast to reveal the secrets behind building a personal brand empire that stands out in today's saturated media landscape. The conversation begins with a powerful challenge: why pay premium prices for someone else's brand when you could invest in your own? S.A explains the four critical types of branding—personal, business, service, and product—using Apple as the perfect example of how these elements work together to create a recognizable empire.The discussion takes an unexpected turn when S.A shares his audacious goal of purchasing streaming platform Tubi for $200 million, explaining how his current media ventures are building toward this seemingly impossible dream. "Why not shoot for the stars?" he asks, challenging listeners to think bigger about their own ambitions rather than settling for modest goals.Content creators will find a particular value in S.A's ingenious approach to content recycling. Rather than constantly creating new material, he explains how repurposing content strategically allows entrepreneurs to reach different segments of their audience by reposting at different times and days. This maximizes impact while reducing burnout—making 24 hours feel like 72 through smart automation.Perhaps most compelling is the emphasis on authenticity across all platforms. S.A argues that maintaining consistency in who you are online and offline creates the trust necessary for sustainable growth. Juggling different personas across contexts creates unnecessary mental strain, while being genuinely yourself everywhere builds credibility with audiences.Whether you're just starting your brand journey or looking to scale your existing media presence, this episode delivers actionable strategies for building a cohesive media empire where everything—from podcasts to merchandise to internet radio—works together as an interconnected ecosystem.

    Life's storms hit us in waves, but it's through sharing these trials that we discover anchors strong enough to hold us steady. And Jimmy's journey has been a testament to this, from grappling with his mother's illness at nine, to enduring the heartbreak of his parents' divorce, and facing his own mental health crisis. With the warmth of faith and a community that extended a helping hand, he navigated these waters and found solace in the sanctuary of creativity—whether through a dream of Disney illustration or the cathartic power of music. Guest Jimmy brings a refreshing take, highlighting the underestimated peace in uniformity, like his choice to wear the same color shirt to ease anxiety and decision fatigue. Our conversation is a raw look at the ebbs and flows of life's challenges and the unexpected lifelines we find along the way.Transitioning from music to preaching was as unplanned as it was profound, marking a shift from expressing melodies to sharing messages of hope. At 16, his commitment to Jesus opened up a new chapter, intertwining his love for music with a call to guide others through their tumultuous journeys. "It's in these moments of vulnerability that we often find our true calling, and my path from musician to youth pastor epitomizes this truth", said Jimmy. The intricate dance between faith and disillusionment with organized religion is a waltz many of us know too well. Here, we peel back the layers to reveal the complexities of maintaining belief amidst suffering and the power of community in our darkest hours.In the final beats of our heart-to-heart, we underscore the importance of gratitude, reflecting on how a simple change in perspective can illuminate the overshadowed blessings in our lives. Gratitude is not just a practice for the good times; it's an anchor for the not-so-good ones, too. And when it comes to the interplay of mental and physical health, we uncover the strength in seeking support and the healing available through counseling. Remember, you're not meant to face the storm alone. Let this episode be a reminder of the resilience within and the hope that accompanies us, even when the skies are grey.Say your sh!t… Sh!t Talker!!Support the Show.FOLLOW US ON;Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkshitwithpTwitter: https://twitter.com/TalkshitwithpFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TalkwhitwIthpTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@TalkshitwithpShop IG: https://www.instagram.com/Talkshitwithp.shopLEAVE US A REVIEW ON APPLE PODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/talk-shit-with-p/id1509470001AND SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL:https://www.youtube.com/@TalkshitwithpSupport The Show (whatever you can)Cashapp: https://cash.app/$TSWP20Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TswpBuymecoffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/talkshitwithpAmazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2M9Q4HNKRO2WA?ref_=wl_shareTo Learn more on my story;https://flow.page/tal...
