Why Fame Isn’t the Finish Line

Why Fame Isn’t the Finish Line

In today’s episode, James Maslow shares what it takes to build a lasting career through patience, preparation, and smart risk-taking.

In today’s episode, I sit down with actor, musician, and entrepreneur James Maslow to talk about what it really takes to build a sustainable career in the spotlight. James shares the mindset required to navigate early missteps, the importance of having enough capital to weather uncertainty, and how fame can be a stepping stone rather than the finish line. We break down the idea of timing and risk tolerance, how long it actually takes to see real results, and why the “overnight success” myth still fools so many. James brings a grounded perspective on fame, fortune, and building a future that lasts.
