EP 294 - How I Rebuilt My Business (And Life) In 24 Months

"The risk is not taking the risk."

Two years ago, I almost lost it all. I took a "dream job" that turned into a 100-hour-a-week nightmare, dried up my sales funnel, and stopped my outbound marketing. I was playing small, and it was killing my business and my health.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the 3 scariest high-stakes risks I took to pivot from burnout to building a high-leverage business. If you're stuck in the "old economy" way of doing things, you're leaving millions on the table.

The Lessons: Stop playing small. The new economy rewards the bold.
