    Whether you’re craving more passport stamps or just more peace of mind, this conversation will challenge the hustle-for-the-sake-of-hustle mindset and help you design a business that works for your life—not the other way around.

    🎙️ The Lei’d Back Life is where we talk business strategy with a beach mindset—because you deserve a business that supports your life, not one that consumes it.

  • Build a Great Life with Social Media feat. Ana Juneja

    In this episode of The LEI'D Back Life, I sat down with Ana Juneja, an award-winning intellectual property attorney and the founder of Ana Law, the first and only law firm that offers flat-fee, 100% guaranteed patent, trademark, and copyright services.
