Staying Solo

Overcomplication Is a Scam (And You’re the Victim)


Listen Later

Ever tried a “simple” recipe only to end up with a kitchen disaster? That’s how most business owners run their businesses—turning something straightforward into a chaotic mess.

The truth? Overcomplication is a scam. More income streams, endless platforms, and 57-step sales funnels won’t save you—they’ll sink you.

In this episode, we’re breaking it all down—the Chaos Tax you’re unknowingly paying, why complexity isn’t making your business stronger, and how simplicity is the real power move.

Topics discussed in this episode include:

  • How celebrity entrepreneurs are victimizing us with their trash advice.

  • How overcomplication steals our time and money.

  • The “chaos tax” - what it is and how it shows up.

  • 3 tangible steps for simplifying your business.

  • Saying no to save yourself from yourself.
