I've been MIA and I owe you an explanation 👋🏽

I have been gone. Not physically. But you know the kind of gone I mean.

Before I say anything else, I want to say this. I've changed the group back to free. And anyone who paid for a membership in 2026 has been fully reimbursed. That was not a mistake. That was a decision. Because this is not about money. It is about community.

I want to be real with you today because this community deserves that from me. I left corporate America in 2019 and went all in. Within 18 months I had hired my first full-time employee. A year after that, two more across both businesses. Our income more than tripled from where we started. I was nonstop. And then 2024 hit me like a wall.

I am still recovering from it financially. And I'm not ashamed to say that.

What I want to do over the next few weeks is have an honest conversation with you about being an entrepreneur who is human. Burnout. Seasons. What I actually do when my battery runs out. And how to keep building even when you cannot run.

I want to hear from you first.

Have you ever hit a wall in your business? Not a slow week. A full stop.

Drop a number below.

1 = Yes, I know exactly what you're talking about

2 = I've felt it but pushed through

3 = I haven't yet but I know it's coming

Let's start there. 💬
