What do a Y2K programmer, a Las Vegas lease-option real estate expert, and a sci-fi novelist building a Marvel-style universe have in common? They're all the same guy. In this episode, I sit down with Kevin A. Dunlap — author, speaker, and creator of the Crimson Alliance Universe — for a wide-ranging conversation about adaptability, perseverance, and what it really takes to keep going when the market shifts under your feet. Kevin shares how getting downsized during Y2K shattered his trust in corporate America, how he ran a successful lease-option real estate business in Vegas for 16 years (and pivoted 180 degrees through the 2008 housing crash), and how playing with AI image tools in late 2024 sparked an entirely new chapter — four published novels in just over a year, with twelve more in the works. We talk about why ”authority” comes from ”author,” why every solopreneur needs a support system even when they're flying solo, and why building a universe beats building a series. If you've ever felt the ground shift in your business and wondered whether to quit or pivot, Kevin's story is a masterclass in choosing the pivot.
