102 - The Hidden Cost of Working In the Business
Many founders hit 5M in revenue but stay stuck in the weeds. This episode exposes the true cost of working in the business instead of on it and how to measure your time to unlock scalable growth and freedom.
82 - Every Founder Wants to Scale. Few Are Ready
Most founders want to scale, but few prepare for it. This episode breaks down the operational checkpoints that every 7- and 8-figure entrepreneur must hit to scale their business without breaking it. Learn how to assess readiness and avoid costly missteps.
70 - You’re Stuck Because You’re Building. It’s Time to Scale
You’re stuck because you’re still building when you should be scaling. This episode shows how to delegate low-leverage work, reposition around outcomes, and turn chaos into systems, so your business grows without you.
59 - The harsh truth: If your business has no systems, it has no future
If your business depends on you to function, it’s not built to last. This episode exposes the critical link between systemization and long-term growth and how real freedom starts with building systems that work without you.
