Hi. I’m Greg Goodman

Photographic Storyteller • Entrepreneur • Husband • Dad

What is my why?

@Adventures of a GoodMan, I use my travel archives to help fuel wanderlust – while creating new art that reflects my current life’s journey.

@Goodman Creatives, I share my decades of business experience for free, giving people all the tools they need to create financial freedom.

@Greg Goodman, I dedicate myself to radical honesty on social media, giving voice to the internal struggles we all face — but seldom talk of.

Adventures of a GoodMan is the graphic novel of my life and the next chapter is still being written.

Here are 4 good places to start your journey.

“What do you do?” That’s one of the most loaded questions we get asked. As if one simple “I help” statement can summarize all of the different parts of our lives. All of our different passions. All our different businesses, side gigs, hobbies, art forms, and everything else. 🌈 We are so much more than any one thing. For example, I am a photographic storyteller with a travel lifestyle blog @adventuresofagoodman. I also run a one-man digital marketing agency @goodmancreatives. I help client-based business owners get more leads without being “salesy.” Together, we will create a foundation for success that includes: ✅ a realistic and scalable marketing plan ✅ web design ✅ funnels ✅ an authentic personal brand that stands out in a busy online crowd. ALSO … I am marketing director for several San Francisco companies. I help therapists fill their caseloads. I am a part of a network marketing business with my wife. I am a father who works from home so I can spend lots of time with my kids. I am dedicated to personal growth and to finding ways to make the world a better place. I say the word YES! over and over for 1 minute, 11 seconds every day at 1:11pm PST. 🚀 That’s a lot … and it’s just the tip of the iceberg. So with all those possible answers, how does one choose just one response to, “What do you do?” Do you even have to choose one? Or, is it ok to dive into the full spectrum of that which makes us unique? Would love to know your thoughts 👇

HOWEVER

Success takes time and consistency

Living the dream doesn’t happen overnight – regardless of what “proven system or offer” you choose.

Do you have the financial cushion to jump right in and make your online biz your only income source?

Or, does this need to be a side gig while you get started?

There's one thing I can tell you with 100% certainty.

The world is online … and it’s not going back

The isolation of Covid has unified our world via social media.

More than ever, people want to support people and brands they know, like, and trust.

Now is the time to reevaluate everything.
Life.
Business.
Relationships.

How can you consciously create what comes next?

That's what I want to help you discover.

At Goodman Creatives, I help conscious entrepreneurs create their dream business with a mix of online marketing, personal branding, web design, funnels, and 1-1 coaching.

I remember falling in love with redwood trees during a family vacation to California in 1987. Now, I’m blessed to live beneath these majestic old growths - both in my literal and actual backyard. This particular set of photos was from a Sunday visit to Henry Cowell State Park with my wife, kids, and my mom - who is visiting from NYC. So infinitely grateful for this life (and for these trees!) 🙏 #nature #tree #trees #redwood #redwoods #redwoodtrees #pachamama #henrycowell #henrycowellredwoods #santacruz #santacruzca #felton #statepark #california #californiastatepark #henrycowellstatepark #lovethesetrees #treelove #love #like #yes #gratitude #sunburst #sun #bark #oldgrowth #family #cali #arbol

I get really excited about a lot of things.⁣ ⁣ Most recently, I was regaling my mom with all the reasons why I LOVE my new online educational platform.⁣ ⁣ In addition to leveling-up my business world, it's helped me go SO deep internally. ⁣ ⁣ I've only been a part of it for the past few months -- and it's the best thing I've done for my personal growth since spending a month in the Amazon doing plant medicine in 2014.⁣ ⁣ It's been epic, to say the least.⁣ ⁣ And, true to form, my mom replied with a simple, yet incredibly powerful bit of advice ...⁣ ⁣ In the middle of all the excitement, just remember to breathe.⁣ ⁣ So wise, mom. So wise!⁣ ⁣ Thank you thank you thank you mom, for being you!⁣ ⁣ Love you!⁣ ~ Gregory⁣ ⁣ PS -- if you want to know about the platform, please reply #transformation in the comments⁣ ⁣ Or, just DM me directly.
