Building a really successful freedom-based business shouldn’t come at the cost of your health + lifestyle. We’ve been conditioned to think that the harder we work, the more money we will make + the better results we will get. Newsflash: it’s actually the complete opposite… and today’s guest - my friend + business mentor, James Wedmore - is going to share strategies, stories and tactics to help you grow your business at any stage with ease. From how James took his business from $2M to $10M in just ONE YEAR, the hard choices he made to unlock massive growth, and how to delegate + build a dream team of A-players TO the critical lessons entrepreneurs at every/any stage of business need to know… and how you can actually do LESS to make MORE money. If you’re a current business owner or aspiring entrepreneur, you don’t want to miss this episode!
