Episode description

Hannes Hennche and I break down why entrepreneurship isn't for everyone and what separates the winners from the ones who burn out. We talk about delegation, building leverage, and why following your passion is usually a trap. If you've ever wondered who should be running a business, how to build a team that doesn't rely on you for every decision, and why $50/hour work with no skill beats chasing unicorns, this episode is for you.
