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.

• Unfiltered Truth Matters: This show was created to expose the real, unpolished stories behind entrepreneurship—beyond the Instagram highlight reels.

• Your Story Has Power: Tina reminds listeners that everyone has a story worth telling—and that story can be healing, relatable, and monetizable.

• Alignment Over Aesthetics: Robert emphasizes that success isn’t about performance or polish—it’s about aligning your heart, mind, and purpose.

• Entrepreneurship Can Be Isolating: The hosts reflect on how lonely building a business can be, and why community and connection are essential.

• Start Where You Are: Starr encourages entrepreneurs to stop waiting and start packaging their expertise to create impact and income now.

• This Is Your Safe Space: Uncensored Entrepreneurs isn’t just a podcast—it’s a place to feel seen, supported, and reminded that you're not alone in the messy middle.
