âYou have to love the process, not just the resultâ
Everyone says that in the entrepreneur and personal development space, and so often when people finally reach their big goals, they miss the climb and don't know what to do next.
This is an audio-only podcast you wonât find on the YouTube channel because I think there are some lessons that are better taught when Iâm not in front of a camera.
In this lesson I share my evolving thoughts on being present for the process of chasing my own business and investing goals.
Sheer Strength Labs, the company I reacquired after my big exit, had itâs first big sales day where it hit a $1 million run rate again and thatâs been really exciting but I canât help but come back to the biggest lesson Iâve ever learned about growth:
Fast is bad and slow is good.

There are three types of money:
1. Cashflow, 2. Wealth, and 3. Enterprise Value
Everyone loves to focus on the first two without thinking about the third, which is where fortunes are made.
If you switch the order and think about Enterprise Value first, you have a shot at building something that can set you financially free for life.

Mike Chang grew Six Pack Shortcuts to a multi 8-figure company before leaving everything to on a spiritual journey.
It's been 9 years since Mike left the entrepreneurial scene at the height of his career, and today Mike and I sat down to talk about what happened and lessons learned along the way.
For years Mike was the guy that everyone in my industry looked up to. People copied his strategies and aspired to reach his level of success but then he walked away from it all.
After going on his spiritual journey now he is coming back into business with a very different perspective and set of goals.In this podcast we discuss what business looks like when purpose, fulfillment, and peaceful balance are the goals instead of the usual nonstop hustle.

When should you consider raising capital to grow your business?
There is a lot of information around raising money for tech companies and other startups but when it comes to eCommerce, there is very little information out there.
Giving away equity in your growing brand is not the right move for everyone, knowing how to value your business can be difficult for many, and then knowing how to actually use the money if you successfully find investors can be even harder.
Thatâs why I wanted to share this podcast so you would know your options and you can avoid many of the pitfalls that entrepreneurs face when it comes to raising capital.
This is what no one tells you about raising money to really grow and scale to the next level.

Does it ever feel like everyone else is killing it and youâre the only one who is experiencing hard times in business?
In this world of entrepreneurship it is common and popular for people to talk about their wins but very few people are willing to talk about the struggles.
Thatâs why I wanted to have Eric Bandholz from Beardbrand on the show. He has been incredibly honest about his story of starting the company in 2012 with a few thousand dollars and growing the brand to almost 8 figures before disaster struck in 2023.
Last year was rough for many e-commerce entrepreneurs and I wanted to bring Eric on as an example of what it looks like to keep pushing and build a business that you actually love.
Instead of giving up and walking away, this is the story of how he pushed through and kept going.

You always want to start with an ideal person who you are selling to when it comes to building a brand, but how many of those people do you actually need to build a million dollar business?
It may surprise you to learn that you only need to start with an audience as small as 100 people. Iâve seen this in action multiple times, Iâve done this with my own businesses, and the brands in the Capitalism portfolio start with this core thesis.
It can be really hard to sell a product but it is really easy to talk to people. In this podcast I break down how you can build a massive business by communicating with a small, loyal group of followers.
From here it becomes very logical and natural to get 100 people on your email list, grow to 100 sales/day, and eventually cross the million dollar mark.

Wherever you get stuck, come back to this podcast and find which step youâre on to continue.

How can you measure if your life is going in the right direction? How do you know if you are taking the right actions to achieve your goals?
I developed a process called the TRIBE 5 that lets you track 5 areas of investment into your life where you can make small deposits that compound into massive success.
This process has helped me make millions throughout my career, and if you pick your own 5 daily habits and check them off most days it would be hard for you NOT to be extremely successful.
Most entrepreneurs donât really know how to most effectively use their time, let alone keep a score of the small habits that are creating the biggest change.
If you can stick to this process for even a few months your life and business will change forever.

It feels right to share this with you all right now.
Maybe you found this show when it was originally called Freedom Fast Lane. Maybe you remember when it was called The One Percent. After some personal reflection, I think the show is changing direction again.
I miss the days of getting on the microphone and just sharing what is on my heart, and what is working within our community, and what is working (or not working) within my businesses.
Now it is time we get back to doing more of that instead of optimizing for growth or more downloads.
I hope you'll continue coming back if this podcast has given you value in the past.
Rooting for you :)

This year at the Capitalism Conference, I opened the event with a keynote about the current state of capitalism. Weâre in an ever expanding universe, and once you realize that, it changes everything.
Unfortunately not everyone sees it that way so their scarcity mindset keeps them from building the business of their dreams. In this keynote I share my brutally honest advice on how entrepreneurs can shift their thinking to operate from a place of abundance.If you got value out of this podcast, head to https://capitalism.com/playbook to download our free playbook and get started on your road to $1M.

She followed the playbook that I outline in my book 12 Months To $1M and scaled far beyond the million dollar mark to multi 9 figures.
In this fireside, we talk through the biggest steps to scaling to a 9 figure valuation.
