What a $15K/Month Taught Me as an Undocumented Entrepreneur | Ep 104

In this episode, undocumented entrepreneur Juan Maya Hernandez opens up about the journey to landing a $15,000 month—not through multiple clients, but through a single contract. From shifting how he pitched his entrepreneurship programs to staying consistent through months without income, Juan shares the real lessons behind the milestone. This isn’t about bragging — it’s about showing what’s possible.

🔑 In this episode you’ll learn:

• Why a $15K client can be easier to work with than a $500 one

• How to reframe your pitch to stand out as an undocumented entrepreneur

• Why consistency matters more than short-term wins

📣 Whether you’re a student with an idea, or an ally who wants to see undocumented students win — this episode is for you.
