I want to share what 10 years as an entrepreneur has taught me about one essential truth: if your business isn't giving you freedom, you're doing it wrong.

You’ll learn:

- How to reverse-engineer your dream adventures using points

- Why most CEOs postpone joy until it’s too late

- The exact process to align your credit cards, spending, and schedule to fund the lifestyle you actually want

- How to create “forcing functions” that turn your calendar into a tool for freedom

- Real talk on grief, burnout, and the lies entrepreneurs tell themselves about "someday"

This episode is a wake-up call for business owners who are stuck in the grind with nothing to show for it but stress. Whether you’re earning $5K/month or $500K/month, this conversation will help you stop deferring life and start living your vision now.
