Deep sits down with Gill Valerio, a serial entrepreneur who sold his agency for multiple seven figures and now helps other agency owners build something that can actually scale, and eventually exit. But this conversation goes way deeper than tactics. Gill breaks down the real journey behind the “3.5 years” headline, including a decade of failure, the mindset required to keep going when it makes zero logical sense, and what it really takes to raise your standards as a founder.

They talk about discipline over motivation, why your income can only rise to the level of your personal development, and how habits carry you through the moments that would normally break most people. Gill shares the story behind building Limitless, why he believes in in-person rooms and real relationships, and how credibility is earned when you stop trying to look successful and start doing the hard work consistently.

Deep and Gill also get into the hidden tradeoffs of ambition, the cost of greatness, how to think about time and priorities when you are “spinning a million plates,” and why betting on yourself is still the best ROI even after you get burned a few times. If you are building an agency, scaling a service business, or trying to become the kind of person who can actually hold the life you say you want, this episode will hit.
