Please Don't Do This in 2026 (521)

In this unscripted, straight-from-the-heart episode, Joe talks directly to creators and entrepreneurs about what really matters heading into 2026. It's not about doing more... it's about doing less but with intention.

Joe calls this episode "The Creator Reset." It's about identifying what you don't want to do anymore — the habits, platforms, clients, or patterns that drain your energy or pull you off mission. Once you stop doing those things, you can finally see what truly lights you up and what you actually want to build.

Then comes the challenge: choose one Misogi goal — a bold, 90-day commitment for the first quarter of the year. Go all in. That's it. One focus. One mission. The rest can wait.

This is how you change your life, your business, and your sense of freedom...not with more resolutions, but with ruthless clarity.
