Most business owners dream of freedom but end up building a business that traps them. 

In this episode, Bryan Clayton, founder of GreenPal and former landscaping mogul, shares how he built real leverage, not just once but twice, turning everyday hustle into scalable systems that run without him. Together, we unpack what it really takes to shift from being self-employed to being a true business owner, creating systems, hiring smarter, and thinking like a leader who’s building something that lasts.

You’ll learn why your first hire is actually the biggest mindset leap you’ll ever take, how to use experimentation as a strategy (not a risk), and the simple structure Bryan used to create exponential growth through compounding leverage. 

This is an episode packed with practical insight for coaches and consultants who want to create freedom, not just more “busy.”

So if you’re ready to stop being the bottleneck in your business and start creating the kind of leverage that gives you your life back, this conversation is your guide. Bryan’s journey proves that real freedom doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from designing smarter.
