About this listen

Wondering if You’ll Ever Break Free From Living Paycheck To Paycheck & Finally Become Your Own Boss?

Ever stare at a blank screen, Googling “how to start a business” for the 100th time—only to end up more overwhelmed than before?

Tired of hearing conflicting advice from YouTubers, self-proclaimed gurus & influencers who’ve never actually built a business that lasted?

You’re not alone!

According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, 62% of Americans want to start a business—but less than 15% ever do. Why? Because most feel overwhelmed, confused, or terrified of failing. Over 5 million business applications per year are filed in the U.S, showing a hunger for independence & financial freedom like never before. But there’s a reason why 50% of businesses fail within five years—they don’t have a plan.
