Listen "The Zach of All Trades Podcast - Ep. 4: The Worst Advice I Ever Got, Chicago Surprises & Tips for Young Men"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Zach of All Trades, I share my first real experience in Chicago—why the city surprised me, what I loved, and what I learned from its architecture and culture. From there, we dive into traditional values and men’s etiquette, including a simple but overlooked lesson every man should follow when out on a date.I also open up about the worst life advice I ever received at 18: “What you do in the next four years determines the rest of your life.” Spoiler alert—it’s not true. Life isn’t a straight line, and I share how my own path—from college to quitting, from tech therapy to professional ballroom dance to entrepreneurship—proved otherwise.Finally, I break down why every man must become more self-sufficient—learning to fix things, build skills, and carry himself as a protector and provider.👉 If you’re a young man, entrepreneur, or someone questioning the “traditional path,” this episode will push you to think differently about success, responsibility, and creating the life you actually want.
