In this episode. How do you build a thriving business that actually supports the life you want—without working yourself into the ground?

In this conversation, I sit down with my mentor, Jess Glazer DeRose, to unpack how she went from being a school teacher to running a multi-million dollar coaching business—and why she ultimately shut down a $400K revenue stream to prioritize what really matters.

We talk about:

• The mindset shifts that allowed Jess to scale a business that works for her
• The best and worst investments she’s made (and what she learned from them)
• How to navigate the coaching industry’s messy landscape with integrity
• Why investing in yourself isn’t just about ROI—it’s about who you become in the process

Plus, we dive into DBE Live, an event that changed my business forever. If you’re ready to step into bigger opportunities, this is where you need to be. (Get all the details inside the episode!)
