How Gen-Xers and Millennials Are are  Using the Stealth Launch Plan™ to Quietly design their exit from the 9-5 grind, before retirement...

...WITHOUT burning bridges, risking income stability, or taking wild leaps...

What is the "Stealth Launch Plan™" Masterclass?

Hey, Eric Hodgdon here, and let’s be real for a minute…

If you've ever thought about trying to get out of the 9-5 grind, you're probably STUCK on where to start.

I mean, the mere thought of trying to build a business while working a full-time job, raising a family, or navigating real life, it isn’t just hard, it can feel damn impossible.

  • You’re juggling bills...
  • You're trying to maintain current responsibilities at home AND at work...
  • Or,  you feel like you alone have to “figure it all out”... 

This kind of "lifestyle" stress is something you're probably not talking about. Instead, you keep it inside and just hope that something happens to get you out of this. 

Let's face it. You want freedom, but the idea of quitting your job with no plan and no proof? That’s not a risk you’re willing to take, either.

Instead, you know you'd want to do it the smart way - the strategic way - but every time you search for answers, you find there's no plan that respects your real-world responsibilities.

Every video is chock-full of overhyped advice, or you see some unrealistic "overnight success" claim from a Gen-Z, 25-year old claiming it's "easy" to get out of the 9-5... 

That’s not just overwhelming. It’s paralyzing.

That’s exactly why I created the Stealth Launch Plan™ Masterclass.

How to quietly, strategically and plan your exit from the 9-5 grind, WITHOUT burning bridges, risking income stability, or taking wild leaps...

Over the past few years, I’ve quietly helped aspiring entrepreneurs design and launch their side-business,  while keeping their paycheck, peace, and priorities intact.

Using my proprietary B.R.I.D.G.E Method™, this masterclass gives you the clarity and confidence to start your business behind the scenes, without risking your income or burning out.

It’s already helped professionals, parents, and purpose-driven people make real progress without the pressure.

Now, it’s your turn...

Here’s What We're Doing…

We’re taking everything you’ve already started to think from the Stealth Launch Plan™ PDF, and turning it into a focused, validated side-business plan that fits your life where it is, today.

You’re not winging it. You’re not guessing. And you’re definitely not gambling with your time or money...

In this masterclass, you’ll learn the exact same steps I took to plan my exit from the 9-5, while still working, staying quiet until it was time, and keeping my priorities intact. ​

Here's Why this is important...

I get it. You want to own your own calendar, but those 50+ hour work weeks, the overlapping meetings and emails/text messages over the weekend make it incredibly difficult to think about doing anything else, for fear that you may risk your job... 

It shouldn't be that way...

And, you've probably been feeling like:

  • You’re stuck in busy mode, missing small moments you can’t get back.
  • You’ve held “that idea” for too long, but never created space to act on it.
  • You shouldn’t need to quit to start building the life you want, but it seems like that may be the only way.

Let me just say that you definitely don't want to quit, yet...

This masterclass ensures your first steps are smart, aligned, and momentum-building, not burned-out or misguided.

Here's the thing: if you don't get this part of your life handled now, that's exactly how the next 10-15 years of your life will end up....

I've seen this happen too many times to count at this point, and it's heart-breaking to witness.

Thankfully, The Stealth Launch Plan™ fixes this...

Here's how it works:

Inside the masterclass, I walk you through how to apply the B.R.I.D.G.E. Method™ to your real life, step by step, so you can quietly build a business that aligns with your lifestyle, without quitting your job (yet), or spinning your wheels.

In fact, I'll walk  you through every step so you don't have to "overthink" any of this!

You’ll learn how to:

  • Clarify your vision so your business doesn’t hijack your life (but supports it).
  • Uncover your ideal client’s real transformation path so you don’t waste time selling the wrong thing.
  • Map and validate your first offer without building it in full or needing a funnel.
  • Use your current schedule (even just 2–4 hrs/week) to gain traction now, not “someday.”
  • See the full picture of how your offer fits into your client’s bigger success journey, so you’re not building random freebies or guessing at what comes next.
  • Lay the foundation to exit your 9–5 with clarity, proof, and purpose, instead of panic or wishful thinking.

the BEST part is...

This masterclass is:

  • Less than 60 minutes
  • Built for busy people
  • Designed to move you from “thinking about it” → DOING it quietly and strategically

We’ll Even Show You How to Quietly Design Your 9–5 Exit Strategy...

One of the most powerful outcomes of the Stealth Launch Plan™ Masterclass is this:

You’ll walk away with a private, personalized roadmap to transition out of your job on your terms.

Without burning bridges.
Without risking your family’s stability.
Without taking wild leaps that keep you up at night.


Using the B.R.I.D.G.E Method™, you’ll identify a skill you already have, discover how to turn  it into a minimum viable offer, and build a strategic path to start earning part-time income before anyone at work even knows what you’re up to.

You’ll know exactly how to structure your time, conversations, and actions so that each week builds toward your exit goal, whether that’s 6 months or 2 years from now.

Because here’s the truth: You don’t need more information. You need a plan that fits YOUR real life.

This is it.

Of all the frameworks I’ve tested or certifications I’ve earned over the years, nothing has helped more people launch with clarity than the B.R.I.D.G.E Method™ you’ll learn inside this masterclass.

Here's what you get inside the stealth Launch Plan™ masterclass:

  We’ll start by talking about the #1 thing that most aspiring entrepreneurs get wrong and ho to avoid it ALL costs. 

  Next, I’ll introduce you to the B.R.I.D.G.E. Method™-  a simple, powerful framework that gives you a high-level map to quietly start your business behind the scenes, without quitting your job or disrupting your life.

This method was designed specifically for professionals who are thoughtful, strategic, and serious about building something that supports their life, not steals from it.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Clarify your vision and align it with a business that fits (instead of burns you out)
  • Identify the exact person your business is meant to serve, and what they’ll pay for
  • Extract and validate your first offer idea without building a single funnel or website
  • Understand the first 2–3 strategic steps that get you paid, not overwhelmed
  • See exactly where your business could grow before you ever “go public”

And most importantly, you’ll learn how to:

  • Build a private, part-time plan that can eventually replace your paycheck
  • Start with what you already know and simplify your way into momentum
  • Avoid the biggest trap new entrepreneurs fall into: building the wrong thing and having to start over.

No hype. No passive-income fantasy. Just a grounded, realistic path for Gen-Xers, Millennials, and purpose-driven professionals who want more, and are ready to build it the right way.

Perfect. The B.R.I.D.G.E Method™ will help you extract an offer from your existing experience, passions, or skills, even if you think you’re starting from scratch. This class is all about creating clarity where confusion lives.

Will this work if I live outside the U.S.?

Does this masterclass build my business for me?
No, and it shouldn't. This training gives you a high-level plan to start out with, the steps, and the confidence to execute, without spinning in research or overwhelm. It’s not a done-for-you funnel or plug-and-play business. It’s your blueprint to build a real offer, on your terms.

I’m not a licensed financial or legal advisor. I’m a certified leadership coach, 2x TEDx speaker, and founder of Resilience Leaders, LLC. I built this method after rebuilding my life post-layoff, post-loss, and post-burnout, and now I help others do the same with clarity and intention. Everything I teach comes from experience, not theory.
