Why Leverage Beats Ideas and How I Build Businesses That Actually Scale

I break down how I think about leverage and why relying on one person or one income source is the fastest way to stay stuck. We get into how I structure my businesses, how I make high impact decisions, and how I use systems, hiring, and global talent to scale faster than competitors. I also share my real thoughts on AI, where it actually adds value and where it's overhyped.

And toward the end, I talk about how having a family made me a better operator, forced me to focus on what actually matters, and how I think about raising my kids and building a life beyond just business.
