**Is your seven-figure business becoming a gilded cage?**

In this eye-opening episode, we tackle the rarely discussed reality that many million-dollar business owners are working harder than ever while taking home less than they deserve.

We share the powerful story of Sam, whose $1.8 million software company had become a prison of 70-hour workweeks and shrinking profits, and how he transformed it using the Profitability Pyramid framework.

Discover the three critical shifts that can transform a "successful on paper" business into one that actually creates freedom and wealth:

1. Service Portfolio Optimization: Eliminating offerings that create complexity without profit

2. Team Realignment: Restructuring around "Value Streams" that reduce owner dependency

3. Owner Economy Restructuring: Ensuring the business serves your financial goals first

Key Quote: "The reality is that complexity is rarely a strategic advantage. More often, it's the accumulated result of tactical decisions made without a cohesive framework."

Listen now to learn how entrepreneurs like Sam are doubling their profits while cutting their work hours in half, and why strategic simplification creates more value than unfocused expansion.
