Show notes
What if you could turn your garage, driveway, or empty plot of land into passive income — without lifting a finger? In this episode, host Brien Gearin chats with Joseph Woodbury, CEO and co-founder of Neighbor — the “Airbnb of storage and parking.” Joseph shares how a simple idea during college turned into a venture-backed startup now operating in all 50 states and helping everyday people earn thousands renting out unused space. You’ll hear the origin story of Neighbor, how they raised $75M in funding, and how their platform is creating a new wave of low-overhead, passive-income entrepreneurs. Whether you’re curious about starting a side hustle or investing in scalable storage opportunities, this episode is full of insight and inspiration!
