In this week's solo episode of the M3 podcast,  I share my experiences during my travels through Texas and the start of the Aligned Agency Mastermind Retreat, in Austin. I reflect on the importance of quiet spaces for introspection and discuss a few recent personal revelations about forgiveness, releasing past pains, and how this all ties in as I'm reconnecting with significant people in my life. I learned that the act of forgiveness serves soley as a personal gift.

I also share insights from the retreat, discussing conscious capitalism, service-based business practices, and the balance between automated systems and personal care in business. I emphasize roles essential for a CEO such as visionary, recruiter, editor, mentor, and data analyzer, to foster growth and leadership. This episode calls for introspection about personal systems and encourages listeners to engage in acts of service and support through upcoming events managed by The M3 Method.
