Mikk and I sat down to talk about what it really means to build a business that supports the life you want instead of trapping you in a cycle of stress and burnout. I walked him through the lessons I've learned from operating service companies, investing in real estate, and hiring globally to lower overhead. We got into how I've used boring, simple businesses to build leverage, why momentum is the most dangerous drug in entrepreneurship, and how I protect my time so I can focus on what matters. We also talked about content, writing the book, and the pressure that comes with growing a holdco while staying grounded. This episode is about discipline, delayed gratification, and building a system that gives you real freedom.
