In this video, I’m pulling back the curtain on the counterintuitive truths behind building a peaceful, profitable business that actually lasts.

I share the hard lessons learned after a health scare nearly took me out at the peak of my “success” and the exact systems I used to recover, rebuild, and scale to $30M while working less than 30 hours a week.

If you’ve built a business that looks good on the outside but secretly feels exhausting or unsustainable, this is for you.

What you’ll learn:
Why scaling is not about hustle, big followings, or being everywhere at once. It’s about clarity, simplicity, and systems that let your business grow without you burning out.

These are the sustainable business truths I wish I knew from day one.
