In this episode, we’re tackling what I call The Hamster Wheel of Hope—that frustrating cycle of crossing your fingers and hoping. This episode is your roadmap to breaking free from the hustle-for-hustle’s-sake cycle and finally building a profitable, sustainable business.

Building a business that lasts isn’t just about speed—it’s about getting smart with your systems, having the right mindset, and pushing forward, even when things feel slow.
In my own journey, moving fast wasn’t always the best approach, and I’ve learned to focus on building solid foundations for growth. If you’re feeling stuck or like things just aren’t moving as quickly as you’d like, this episode is packed with lessons on how to take a step back and work smarter—not harder.

I recently sat down with Leigh Burgess, and we got into a deep conversation about boldness—and how it’s not about being fearless or having it all together. Instead, it’s about making a conscious choice to keep moving forward, even when you’re uncertain. We’re all just figuring it out as we go.

Joed (our Business Manager) joins me to give you an inside look at the good, the bad, and the ugly of implementing systems that scale. If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck in the weeds of your own business, or like you’re drowning in tasks that aren’t helping you grow, this episode is for you. Tune in to learn from our mistakes, our wins, and how we’re finally building a business that’s ready for the next level.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into how you can make this year different—in the best possible way. No fluff, no overused “goal-setting” advice. This is all about taking a fresh, honest look at what’s working, what’s not, and how to set yourself up for a year that’s not just successful, but aligned with your true business goals.

If you’re feeling like the holiday season took it out of you (because let’s be honest, it totally did), then this episode is for you. I’m sharing some real talk about how to reset, refocus, and get ready to tackle 2025 like the pro you are.
