    @drinkwithwayne’s Journey from Rockstar to Chef, to Coffee Roaster and Spirit Guide

    In this episode of The Spirit Guides, Tequila Jay Baer sits down with Wayne to hear about his journey into the world of content creation. Wayne talks us through his days as a chef and even appeared on the show Chopped before pivoting into coffee roasting.

    When Wayne started his coffee business, that naturally led him to start creating content all about coffee with the help of his Twitch streamer friends/business partners. Later, he found his passion for creating different types of content about cocktails, bourbon, and tequila.

    Wayne shares some stories about his first big hit on TikTok and the moment he accidentally posted a video too early and saw it blow up. Staying true to his passion project, Wayne gives his take on the monetization of content, the dreaded editing process, and what keeps him going even during moments of impostor syndrome.
