Are you tired of the “time for dollars” trap—where every vacation, sick day, or even slow week hits your bottom line?
In this episode, James Marland gets real about the burnout that comes from trading hours for income and why the solution isn’t just slapping together an online course. He dives into what it really takes to build something scalable and sustainable—without losing yourself or your sanity in the process. Whether you’ve toyed with the idea of creating a course or you’re just craving more freedom in your practice, this conversation is a must-listen. It's honest, encouraging, and packed with insights that’ll challenge the way you think about growth, impact, and showing up as your true self.
