What does it take to go from ten years of failure to building a multimillion-dollar lifestyle business? In this episode of Uncensored Entrepreneurs, Jordan Adler shares his incredible journey—how he failed in 11 network marketing companies before cracking the code on the 12th. His story is one of persistence, mindset shifts, and creating a life of true freedom.

Jordan walks us through what finally changed, the power of residual income, and why building meaningful relationships—not chasing transactions—is what actually creates long-term success. If you’ve ever felt like giving up, this conversation will give you the perspective and tools to keep going.

Key Takeaways:

• Don’t quit on a bad day: The breakthrough often comes right after the breakdown.

• Leverage and residual income are freedom tools: Jordan’s entire path shifted after learning these two principles.

• You don’t need a personal brand to start—but you’ll want one to grow: Be memorable, be you, and let your brand evolve.

• Success is a mindset shift, not just a strategy: Like the hummingbird stuck at the window, sometimes we just need to look in a new direction.

• Relationships over transactions: Long-term growth is built through connection, not scripts.
