What if everything you've been taught about achieving your goals is backwards?
In this episode, I'm sharing a complete reframe that changed how I approach my business, my workouts, and my entire life: the concept of minimum effective dose.
Most of us have been conditioned to believe that we need to push harder, work longer, and sacrifice more to get results. No pain, no gain, right? But what if that approach is actually sabotaging your progress?
I learned about minimum effective dose from a fitness podcast (shoutout to Mind Pump), and it completely revolutionized how I think about building muscle. The principle is simple: go to the gym, send the signal to your body that you want to grow, and get out. You should feel BETTER leaving the gym than when you walked in. Not destroyed. Not demolished. Better.
And here's the thing—this applies to literally everything in your life and business.
When you shift from self-abuse disguised as productivity to sustainable systems built on self-love, everything changes. You can create a YouTube video in 5 minutes instead of spending 30 hours on it. You can build muscle with 15-minute workouts. You can grow your business without burning out.
In this episode, I'm breaking down:
This isn't about settling or being lazy. This is about optimizing for what actually works—and honoring your well-being in the process.
If you're tired of the hustle culture BS and ready to do less while getting better results, this episode is for you.
