Claudia and I had the pleasure of hosting Steve and Jody Berkey, along with their son, Elijah, over the weekend. While they were here, they were gracious enough to sit down for a few minutes to do an interview with me and talk about their business and journey with 90 Revolutions.

Topics covered:

- how they sold their house, quit their jobs, and are traveling the country

- where to start if you want to start a business

- how to find a business that fits your personality

- how to go from dreaming mode to action mode

- how coaching changes your perspective and generates real results

- how having a child changes everything

- growing a business on the side

Question: Of all the comments Steve and Jody made, what intrigued you the most?

    I’d heard of Steve and Jody’s story on FAA’s podcast. Sounds like they’re following their dreams and pursuing it full force.

    I think you are all amazing people!  I applaud Steve and Jody in this Epic Adventure and how they worked out details in order to do this.  Very, very inspiring.

      Ann, you’re right. They put a lot of hard work and planning into making this a reality!

    I didnt really catch/understand the part about there living situation for each of the 13 weeks?  How did they do it??

      Jenny,
      Steve is doing traveling PT (physical therapy) work and each of the jobs is a 13 week period in a location of their choice all around the country.

      Will I see you in a couple mins?

        Our plans got turned upside down and the party got lost in the shuffle!!

    Well done interview, Michael!  It was nice to see Steve and Jody “in person” so to speak.  I hope you are able to do more of these interviews in the future!

    What camera do you use to video?  And what program did you use to add the intro banner at the beginning?  It looked great and very professional.

    • http://rise365.com/ Michael Good

      Thanks, Michael. It looked so professional because we used Steve and Jody’s fancy camera. Not sure what it was in particular, but I do know it was a Nikon SLR. I edited it in Apple’s iMovie. That’s where I added the banner.
      I did enjoy doing to interview and have thought about doing some more, so thanks for the feedback!

        So, you’re Apple users!  The next computer we get will be an Apple for sure.   I think it will definitely help my wife become more friendly to be around when I try to explain how to do things on it! :)

          Hey, we are, Michael. I think they’re worth it, plus they’re super user friendly. iMovie comes standard with new Macs and works great to
          put amateur videos together.
