184: Can’t Take a Summer Break From Your Business? Let’s Fix That.

If your business stops the second you do, you don’t have a business. You have a very expensive job. Wealth and financial freedom aren’t about how much you make, they’re about how much choice you have. True freedom is the ability to go deep with your clients, or take a step back, without your revenue or team falling apart in your absence. And as we roll into summer, I know stepping away might sound like a luxury you can’t afford. In this episode, I share the tactical ways you can create time freedom in your calendar this summer to take some much-deserved time off… without your business falling apart.
