My name is Levi Spires. I’m a follower of Christ.

I’m also writer and Uber driver. Each ride is a log for the fire, the fire that's burning inside me to make human connections and tell stories.

But the modern world is working against me. Against humanity. Artificial intelligence, algorithms, social media doomscrolling, unlimited options of fast food delivered by autonomous cars so we can sit at home, alone… all of it like fire retardant chemicals snuffing the flame of life.

I drive strangers every day. People wanting to journey from A to B. Maybe looking for a rolling sanctuary. Maybe looking for a conversation. Maybe a little of all three.

And I wonder to myself, what is happening to the world? What changes are about to come?

Where are we going?

Rideshare Masterclass Live

This is Thrive, my Uber and Lyft rideshare driver masterclass I created this for you. I hope you enjoy it!

Rideshare driving offers rideshare drivers awesome flexibility. It's the ultimate gig work. We get people to and from their destinations with a smartphone and a vehicle. And we earn a little money too. However, not all drivers thrive equally. Success for us hinges on mastering five core principles:

  1. Drive when a lot of people need rides.

  2. Drive-in areas with fewer drivers.

  3. Pick profitable trips.

  4. Reduce our costs.

  5. Maximize our tips.

While the foundation of rideshare success is universal, every driver's journey is unique. My guide provides drivers with a framework to help understand how to make the most amount of money possible.
