"Your family adapts to the version of you that's only partially there."

Achieving a true work-life balance can be difficult, but it is not impossible. After losing his father, George refused to follow in the same footsteps of not being as present as he'd like in his son's life. 

George decided to take it a step further by creating an outlet for other Founder Dads out there, because he knew he was far from alone in this situation. He realized that it was not a hard decision to make, but requires consistency and intention. 

His son Leo was negotiating real estate deals by the age of 8 and a podcast host by age 11 - and George has been there every step of the way. 

Tune in to episode 233 as George explains the Time Liberation Trifecta, breaks down the Two-Week Vacation Rule and much more!
