Hi, I’m Kevin Hood
Former carpenter. Current writer. Permanent barefoot enthusiast.
If you’ve ever had a look at mainstream career paths and thought, “yeah, no thanks,” you’ll probably like it here.
A bit about me
I stumbled on this online business thing back in 2016.
I saw people like Tim Ferriss, Paul Chek, Daniel Vitalis, and Gary Vaynerchuk building businesses around their interests on the internet, and I wanted to do the same.
However, there was just one problem.
I was a broke, barefoot, anarchist hippie (still barefoot whenever possible, still a hippie).
But it turns out, banging against the system is just a full time job that doesn’t pay and makes you a cog in it anyway. So I decided to try something that might actually change the world instead.
I became an entrepreneur.
And after a brief stint (5 years) pretending I wanted to run a million dollar construction business, I finally worked up the courage to give this online business thing a shot.
Since then, it’s been hell an amazing journey!
It took me way longer than I thought to figure out how this online business stuff works.
But now I get paid to write and teach online. I get to work with some of my favorite brands (who inspired the journey in the first place). And best of all, I have the freedom to work from anywhere in the world.
Now if I could only get myself to actually leave my hometown for more than a week or two at a time…
More on that as the saga continues.
Here’s what you can expect from me
I write a daily email newsletter on topics like:
- Writing.
- Business.
- Marketing.
- Productivity.
- AI & automation.
- Knowledge systems.
- Top 5 reasons for going barefoot.
Basically, whatever I’ve got going on, I turn that into content that will help you achieve your goal of building something meaningful and profitable online.
Or at the very least, you’ll come away with an unhealthy addiction to running barefoot.
