What if you could take your entire life’s work – your knowledge, content, expertise – and turn it into a scalable business, a book, a brand, even a SaaS platform… in 72 hours?

That’s not a pipe dream.

In this new episode of Capability Amplifier, Dan Sullivan and I go deep into how I’m using AI to compress months of work into days, create new business models on the fly, and build better future selves for entrepreneurs – using nothing but their past, their voice, and some mind-blowing tools.

You’ll hear how I built a book, a brand, a product strategy, a complete app, and a scalable recurring income model for a doctor – in less than one hour – live during a Strategic Coach Free Zone event.

We also explore:

• How AI is changing how I coach, sell, and prototype with clients
• What Dan’s “Free Day Guardian” looks like and how AI helps preserve creative energy
• Why entrepreneurs are finally out of control – in the best way possible

If you’ve ever said “I just need someone to make sense of all my ideas,” this episode shows you how to do exactly that… with AI.

What if working harder is exactly why your business feels stuck?

This week, I’m sitting down with Michael Walsh — a 30-year veteran who’s helped hundreds of founders scale service businesses past the invisible walls that trap 98% of owners below $5 million… and keep 99% from ever reaching $10–20 million.

He calls them danger zones — predictable trapdoors that snare even the smartest owners.

If you’ve ever wondered why more sales doesn’t fix your profit problem… why great people leave… or why your “well-oiled machine” feels more like a mess of people problems — this is for you.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn exactly why traditional management and “systems thinking” break down — and how to design an intelligent ecosystem instead.

Why 96% of businesses stall at $1M–$5M — and how to break through with a simple shift in how you see your people, not just your systems.

The Hidden “Danger Zones”:
How to recognize — and navigate — the invisible walls at $2M, $5M, $10M, and beyond… before they kill your momentum.

The Well-Oiled Machine Lie: 
Why treating your company like a “machine” turns your people into cogs (and why it backfires).

Build an Intelligent Ecosystem:
How to create a culture where your best people stay, grow, and solve problems faster than you ever could alone.

Freedom by Design:
Michael’s Freedom Framework for service businesses — the same approach that helped founders triple revenue, exit for millions, and actually enjoy running their business again.

The First Step to Escape Burnout:
How to know if you’re in a danger zone right now — and the exact first step to get unstuck.

Imagine having an invisible team of experts, researchers, marketers, and creatives working 24/7 to build your business… 

Without adding a single employee.

That’s exactly what we just did with my new friend and client, Nathaniel Ely, during a Superpower Accelerator three-day intensive.

Nathaniel flew in to work with me personally, and in three days, we created everything he needed to launch a $1 Billion business opportunity around the Augusta Rule – a little-known tax strategy that can put tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars back in the pockets of business owners every year.

Using Ai as a true team member, we built an entire brand from scratch:

• A full 50+ slide masterclass
• A pitch deck and marketing funnel
• Three book drafts
• Video sales letters
• Channel marketing campaigns
• Sizzle reels
• Automated sales workflows
• And dozens of other revenue-driving assets

The best part?

We didn’t just "talk" about ideas – we built them in real-time, workshop-style, using agentic Ai tools that did the work of a 5-person team.

What if you could completely transform your business – your brand, messaging, positioning, even your content – using Ai in just THREE DAYS?

Sound impossible? 

Well, that’s exactly what we accomplished with Jonathan Friedman, founder of the architectural studio Liminal. 

Jonathan was stuck competing in a crowded market until we used Ai to redefine his entire business from the ground up.

In this episode, Jonathan joins me to break down exactly how we did it, step-by-step. 

You’ll hear how we turned Ai into our “invisible team member,” speeding up research, creative ideation, content creation, and marketing strategy at incredible speeds. 

We crafted a 250-page book, a TED Talk, multiple videos, 50 elevator pitches, and generated a list of over 300 targeted channel marketing partners – all in just 72 hours.

Bottom line? 

Jonathan is now positioned to double his revenue goals this year. 

The best part? We had a blast doing it!

Ready to make Ai your new best team member?

Ever feel like you’re drowning in admin or mundane tasks, knowing you could be focusing on your bigger future? 

Dan Sullivan and I have been there.

In this episode of Capability Amplifier, we dive headfirst into the idea of adding Ai to your team – a powerful new “employee” that can handle everything from research to video storytelling.

But the twist? 

As Dan and I unpack the nuts and bolts of using Ai tools, we realize something bigger...

Ai can serve as a mirror, helping you reclaim (and reinvent) your PAST so you can power up your FUTURE.

   • Tools like Invideo can create fully AI-generated videos—characters, voiceovers, animations. This is ideal for first-draft narratives, brand stories, and even personal “mini-documentaries.” You’ll never look at content creation the same way again.
7. Therapy…or a Fast-Track to Knowing Yourself?
   • “Knowing how to be who you actually are” can eclipse years of therapy. By reconstructing your journey—failures, comebacks, and big wins—you craft a narrative that not only sells your offer but also reaffirms who you truly are.

Have you ever thought about tariffs as a "game-changer" rather than just a “political hot button”?

Did you know Japan is quietly investing $1 trillion in U.S. manufacturing—especially in southern and southwestern states? 

That’s right. 

In this new episode, Dan Sullivan and I dive deep into how tariffs, strategic factory moves, and AI-driven audits may soon reduce our taxes (yes, you read that right) while fueling unprecedented economic growth in America.

If that sounds like a Michael Bay movie script, you’re not far off—except this is playing out in real life, right now. We talk about Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs,” Elon Musk’s big-government audit with AI, and why countries like Japan are betting big on producing goods inside the U.S., instead of overseas. 

If you love big-picture, high-stakes drama with real entrepreneurial takeaways, you’ll want to tune in.

KEY INSIGHTS & TAKEAWAYS

1. Tariffs Are Making a Comeback
   • After WWII, the U.S. temporarily abandoned tariffs to rebuild other nations and contain the Soviet threat. Now that era is over, and “reciprocal tariffs” are in play—if you tax American goods, we’ll tax yours. Or you can just move your factories to the U.S.
2. Japan’s $1 Trillion Bet on American Manufacturing
   • Facing a shrinking workforce, Japan decided 30 years ago to build factories where they sell goods. Enter the U.S. south and southwest—lower labor costs, fewer unions, and easier access to American consumers.
3. Moving the U.S. Government to “Warp Speed”
   • Dan and I discuss Trump’s possible plan to use tariffs to fund government operations (hello, “External Revenue Service!”) while simultaneously lowering domestic taxes. If that works, it could trigger an economic boom.
4. AI Audits: Elon Musk’s Government Overhaul
   • Imagine real-time accounting for every federal check ever cut. That’s what happens when you unleash advanced AI to track spending—stopping fraud and inefficiency in its tracks. Lower costs, better governance, fewer excuses.
5. It’s Not Just About Politics
   • The reason these moves are so urgent? The U.S. economy is its greatest weapon and negotiation tool. If the numbers line up, say goodbye to bloated budgets and hello to rapid innovation.
6. The Western Hemisphere Is the New Growth Engine
   • Peter Zeihan’s research suggests that power is shifting west. Europe’s star may be fading, and the big action will be in North and South America—partly because the U.S. can pressure countries with economic, rather than military, force.
7. What It Means for Entrepreneurs (and You)
   • If America becomes the hottest manufacturing hub again, it spells massive opportunity: new factories, high-value jobs, and more disposable income at home. Plus, if government spending shrinks, taxes may drop—fueling startups, scale-ups, and everything in-between.

TIME STAMPS

[00:00:00] Tariffs 101
Dan explains how tariffs helped the U.S. become #1 by 1900, and why after WWII we artificially dropped them to contain the Soviet Union.

[00:03:10] Japan Moves In
The backstory behind Japan’s multi-decade strategy: build factories in America to sidestep both tariffs and a shrinking domestic workforce.

[00:10:44] Economic vs. Military Power
Mike and Dan explore how the real “weapon” now is the U.S. economy—not battleships. This is reshaping alliances, trade, and even the future of space exploration.

[00:14:26] Union vs. Non-Union States
Why overseas giants choose red states over blue to minimize union costs—and how that might transform American politics.

[00:24:19] Elon Musk & Government AI
Trump taps Musk to audit the entire U.S. government using advanced AI. The potential outcome? $3 trillion “lost” dollars suddenly reappear, possibly replacing the income tax with tariffs.

[00:32:57] Europe’s Diminishing Relevance
Dan argues that Europe has become more of a “historic Disney World” than an innovative force, lacking the cultural spark of earlier centuries.

[00:41:00] The Future Is Made in the USA
Why more nations, including the UK, India, and South Korea, may follow Japan’s lead—bringing factories stateside to dodge tariffs and be closer to American consumers.

If you love big ideas and epic plot twists, this episode is basically Netflix’s next political thriller—except it’s happening in real life.

Join Dan and me for a mind-bending conversation on how the world economy could flip in the next few years, and what you can do to position yourself and your business for massive opportunity.

Ever wonder how simply eating steak (yes, just steak) could boost your energy, reduce inflammation, and strip off stubborn weight you’ve carried for years? 

That’s exactly what Dan Sullivan and I are discussing in this special mini-episode on the Carnivore Diet.

We’re talking “all meat, all the time,” how we navigate restaurants and travel, the surprising drop in food cravings, and the best ways to monitor your health so you know exactly what’s happening in your body. 

Plus, I’ll share why I originally decided to go carnivore after battling colorectal cancer—and how it helped clear my IBS issues for good.

If you’re curious about a diet that strips away the nonsense and might radically improve your blood markers, this is a must-listen. 

Remember, we’re not doctors—just two guys seeing remarkable results.

KEY INSIGHTS & TAKEAWAYS

1. Cravings Disappear
   • Dan noticed that while his meal choices weren’t necessarily the problem, the real weight culprit was all the snacks between meals. Carnivore crushed those cravings almost instantly.
2. Rapid Weight Loss & Inflammation Reduction
   • Dan went from 203 to 183 in about six months, and I dropped from 185–190 down to 167 in ten months. Bonus: visible abs, less puffy face, more muscle definition.
3. Energy & Clarity Skyrocket
   • Surprise: no “meal crashes,” no nap cravings. My mental acuity soared. Dan’s focus remains sharp and consistent, all day.
4. An “Elimination Diet” for Gut Health
   • I used carnivore to address ongoing IBS issues post-cancer. By cutting out everything but meat, I zeroed in on triggers, which turned out to be a game-changer for my digestion.
5. A Simple Routine: Steak & Water
   • My daily go-to is a New York strip in the morning, possibly another at lunchtime, and sometimes a final cut later in the day—salt, pepper, maybe a little butter. Dan just logs his weight daily and keeps it simple.
6. Travel Hacks & Blood Monitoring
   • It’s surprisingly easy on the road (hello, Brazilian steakhouses!). We both get regular lab work and check with our docs. Surprisingly, many markers (including cholesterol) improve.
7. Question the Old Food Pyramid
   • Conventional food guidelines? Often the result of corporate interests. Always do your own research, test with labs, and trust how you feel above all else.

TIME STAMPS

[00:00:00] The Carnivore Backstory: Dan’s 6-month journey, losing 20+ pounds, and the role Dean Jackson & JJ Virgin played in getting him started.

[00:02:57] Cutting Out Cravings: Realizing the biggest weight culprit was snacking between meals, and how pure protein intake solved it.

[00:05:10] Mike’s 10-Month Experiment:  My IBS, post-cancer rationale for going carnivore and how my steady “steak & water” routine obliterated my gut issues.

[00:06:40] Practical Travel Tips: How to manage flights, hotels, and social dinners without falling off the carnivore wagon (butter, grills, and friendly hosts).

[00:09:37] Bloodwork & Energy Levels: Dan’s regular labs look great, I’ve seen improved cholesterol and mental stamina. Turns out no naps required.

[00:10:38] That Food Pyramid Myth: Why government-backed dietary guidelines can be questionable—and why we rely on data from continuous glucose monitors and quarterly blood panels.

If you’ve ever struggled with stubborn weight, nagging gut issues, or endless sugar cravings, the Carnivore Diet might be worth a closer look. Do your homework, talk to a professional, then see how you feel when you sizzle up that next steak.
