I Am Just Trying to Live My Life, How About You? welcomes Equity Empire Group founder Terry Godfrey for an honest conversation about entrepreneurship, anxiety, purpose, and becoming 1% better every day.
(YourDigitalWall Editorial):- El Paso, Texas Jul 14, 2026 (Issuewire.com) – Nathan Draper Olsen, host of I Am Just Trying to Live My Life, How About You?, sits down with real estate entrepreneur Terry Godfrey of Equity Empire Group for their first conversation–and nothing is off limits. Together, they unpack what it actually takes to walk away from the security of a 9-to-5, bet on yourself, and build a life that feels like more than simply surviving until the weekend.
The episode moves beyond the usual success stories and gets honest about the parts of entrepreneurship people rarely talk about: the anxiety, the uncertainty, the pressure, and the moments when quitting feels easier than continuing. Godfrey shares the philosophy that keeps him moving forward–getting 1% better every day–and explains why discovering a strong personal “why” matters more than chasing quick results.
“We spend so much of our lives chasing money because we think it will finally give us freedom,” said Olsen. “But somewhere along the way, a lot of us forget to stop and ask whether we are actually living.”
Godfrey’s entrepreneurial journey has led him into real estate, where he helps homeowners find a fast, straightforward cash exit from difficult housing situations. Through Equity Empire Group, he works with property owners who may need to sell quickly, offering the ability to close in as little as 14 days while also looking for opportunities to improve homes, neighborhoods, and housing outcomes for families.
“This conversation is not about pretending entrepreneurship is easy,” Olsen added. “It is about understanding why you started, facing the fear that comes with taking a different path, and continuing to move forward even when you do not have everything figured out.”
Listeners will come away with a more realistic understanding of the shift from employment to entrepreneurship, practical encouragement for pushing through anxiety and uncertainty, and a reminder that success is not only measured by income. The episode challenges listeners to define what living means to them, reconnect with their purpose, and focus on steady progress rather than overnight transformation.
The full episode featuring Terry Godfrey of Equity Empire Group is available to watch and listen to on YouTube.
