A couple of years ago, I had a profound epiphany that changed my business and my life forever.

At the time, my digital course business was rapidly growing, revenue was skyrocketing. Had more students than ever.

On paper – I had achieved the success that I had thought I so desperately wanted.

I should have felt happy, excited and full of pride.

Here’s how I felt instead:
🚩 Tired, burnt out and over it
🚩 Like an imposter
🚩 Betrayed
🚩 Like a bad mama

I carried guilt around 24/7 and wondered whether I’d created a hamster wheel that I might not ever be able to get off.

I knew something had to change…

One Saturday, I sat down with my own thoughts.

What is the purpose of all of this? What is it that I WANT, at the end of the day?

My Goals:
1. More Profit
2. More Time

The Business Model I Needed to Get There:

A simple business with high profit margins, working 5-hour days with a lean, remote team of 1-5 and a mostly clear calendar.

AKA... A Business With the Endgame of The Lifestyle Business Sweet Spot.

Since that day, I have been hellbent on a different goal.

Getting clarity on my endgame and reverse engineering into a business that achieves it the epiphany that profoundly changed my business and my life.

This is the "Life First" Business Plan we are implementing in 2023.

If YOU are aligned with our desired endgame in business, maybe it's a model you'd like to follow?
