How I Went From Bankrupt To Four Restaurants (In Just A Few Years)

  • Summary

  • Running a restaurant business is NOT easy.

    In my twenties, I faced a nightmare scenario - potential bankruptcy that could cost my father his house.

    Working 80-100 hour weeks while battling severe health issues, I discovered the hard way what it takes to transform a failing restaurant into a thriving operation.

    In this deeply personal episode, I share my journey from $10,000 in overdraft to building four locations that now run on just 5 hours of my time per week.

    My mission now? Ensuring no other restaurant owner has to learn these lessons the hard way.

    Tune in to discover:

    • The critical mistakes that almost cost me everything
    • A proven method for escaping the restaurant owner trap
    • The exact system that turned my struggling location into my most profitable
    • How top restaurant owners scale without sacrificing freedom
    • The leadership transformation required to manage multiple units
