This week’s guest actually did it.
If you’ve ever struggled through an 80 hour workweek, you know it can be incredibly profitable… but at what cost to your health, happiness and family life?
How do you know when enough is enough?
Today we’re here with fellow OG podcaster and host of the hit show Entrepreneurs on Fire, my friend John Lee Dumas.
After years working 60-80 hours a week living in San Diego, JLD made the life-changing decision to revamp his business and move his family to Puerto Rico, where he now works just 20-30 hours a week kicking back in a Caribbean paradise.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
