Description

Welcome to The Strive For Good Life Podcast with your host, Nino Pingera.

In this episode, Travis Holzem shares how he went from broke single dad to building a thriving brand around permaculture and food forest design—without investors, without paid ads, and without giving up.


You’ll hear:

  • How Travis launched his first business with $4,000 in loose change

  • What it really takes to bootstrap a business from scratch

  • The power of YouTube and content marketing when you're low on budget

  • How he pivoted after being cut out of the company he helped build

  • And how he's now turning his hard-won expertise into a nationwide training program


This is an episode about resilience, marketing on a shoestring, and building a brand around purpose. If you’re starting or growing your own online business—this one’s for you.
