Episode Summary by AI

I received Alex Hormozi’s Money Models book and skimmed through it while spending time with Lexi. I reflected on reducing my client hours to focus on building and selling my own Notion systems instead of spending energy on tedious transfer work.

I also explored hiring ethical, affordable Filipino talent to free my time.
