What does it really take to go from nothing to building a $45M business?

David Asarnow shares the mindset system, confidence conditioning, and practical growth habits that helped him scale businesses to eight figures — plus why most people are using AI at a fraction of what it can do.

In this episode, we break down how confidence is built (not born), the nightly mental routine David uses to programme focus, and how to use AI as leverage without losing the human edge that makes businesses grow.

Topics covered:

• From $0 to $45M: building a growth engine

• Confidence conditioning and identity rewiring

• Sales certainty: how to remove doubt

• Speaking and presence: how to command a room

• AI leverage: how leaders actually use it

• Why trust and relationships still win

Before bed say “God/Universe, connect me with the people that I need to meet that I can serve and that need to be served by me and those that can serve me as well.

Connect us, make it so, and let me know, show me a sign that I actually need to meet them and they need to meet me.”
