I wanna be a guest on more podcasts this year to share about
- things entrepreneurs should know if they want to build an app (without code)
- bootstrapping a $1M/ yr company
- working smart not hard- working 2-3 days per week
Who should I talk to?
As a CEO I only "work" Mondays & Thursdays.
Mondays are for internal meetings:
a) Meeting w/ CEOs of companies I acquired
b) 1:1s with my leadership team
c) Meeting with my assistant
d) Team all hands
e) Special meeting for new innovative products

Last night I deleted Facebook, Twitter, & Instagram from my phone.
I'm only using them on my computer now...
This morning I woke up so much fucking happier!!
Prob not going back...
My job as CEO is to:
1) Make sure we don't run out of money
2) Make sure everyone understands their job & is empowered to do it.
3) Slowly remove myself as a 'critical' part of the organization
Everything else is a distraction...
Remember this time last year when I thought my whole business was gonna fall apart?!
I feel like every entrepreneur has said this to themselves before... Ya’ll thought this before, right?!
Tips:
🚫 Ditch the jargon—speak like a human, not a researcher
🎥 Go Hollywood—tell the happy‑ending story your idea delivers
✂️ Trim 1–3 words every time—shorter = clearer
🔗 Use an analogy: e.g. “the Uber for dry‑cleaning”
It doesn't always make sense to pivot. Sometimes it’s better to quit & then start again
🔄 Pivot only if you already have a new idea
👥 If not, downsize to a 1–2‑person “hunt squad” & go find your next big idea
