About this listen
Are you working hard, staying disciplined, and STILL not seeing the freedom or results you want as an entrepreneur?
In this episode of the Garlic Marketing Show, Ian Garlic sits down with Craig Ballantyne, author of The Dark Side of Discipline and co-owner of EarlyToRise.com, to unpack the surprising truth about discipline, identity, and business vision.
Craig reveals how entrepreneur burnout is often the result of misguided discipline and why effortless discipline built around clarity and systems is the key to long-term growth. He also shares his top coaching funnel strategy, how he uses audiobooks and video testimonials to convert, and why AI will never replace coaching grounded in human connection.
Whether you're a high performer or business coach, this episode will reshape how you think about productivity, identity, and building a business that doesn’t burn you out.
