    Dec 9 2025
    If you want to join the inner circle of Million Dollar Studios then head to my Instagram and DM me ‘Million’ and let’s chat. If business has started to feel like one long fight… Doza unpacks the 3 devils every business owner must face and the mindset, systems, and leadership shifts needed to beat each one, climb every level, and build a $1M Dream Business that doesn’t burn you out in the process. Here’s what we’re covering: • The 3 devils that haunt every business: Money, Time, and People. • The Money Devil - why most owners stay broke and how to finally beat it. • The Time Devil - how “busy” is actually the new form of avoidance • The TwoHeaded Devil - the people + purpose trap that kills momentum at scale. • The real reason you’re stuck: doing “busy work” instead of revenue work. • The story behind Doza’s first 100 sales - and the night everything changed. • How to build a team that lets you step out without your business falling apart. • Leadership at Level 3: accidental managers vs. transformative leaders. • Why the devil you refuse to face will own you (and how to fight back). • What it actually means to reach freedom - hint: you don’t slay the devil, you learn to dance with it. • Why most businesses stay stuck and how to finally stop fighting the wrong enemy.

  • Team Buy-In: How We Built a Crew That Would Fight for the Vision

    Team Buy-In: How We Built a Crew That Would Fight for the Vision
    Dec 5 2025
    In this video... Most studio owners want a team that’s loyal, driven, and fully aligned… but they never actually build the environment where buy-in can exist. In this episode, I sat down with my entire team - the same crew who came with me to Hawaii - and we broke down exactly how we became a unit that fights for the same mission, the same standards, and the same future. This isn’t “team culture fluff.” This is practical, operational buy-in - how to get your people to care as much as you do. Inside this episode, we cover: - Why your team won’t fight for a vision they never helped shape. - How we built a team that holds the standard - even when I’m not in the room. - Why showing your team the destination transforms their commitment overnight - We reveal the exact stories, rituals, and strategic transparency that make buy-in inevitable. - The psychology behind team alignment. - How we got the team to take the Hawaii vision personally. - The simple systems we use to keep everyone rowing in the same direction. This episode will change the way you think about leadership and team performance. If your team feels disconnected, unmotivated, or “not getting it” - this will show you why… and how to fix it.
