Most solopreneurs hit a wall around $100K. In this Episode, I’ll explain why.

I will walk you through the two business models every solopreneur eventually has to pick between:
1. Expert Business: Scale with PRICE (high-value, deep expertise)
2. Marketing Business: Scale with SYSTEMS (zero fulfillment, all marketing)

Here’s what I cover:

What they each are
Exactly how each makes money
What skills you would need to implement them
How you get clients with each model
What real life examples of these businesses look like

You’ll learn:

The hidden bottleneck keeping you stuck at $100K
The difference between scaling with price vs scaling with systems
The real reason you're exhausted (hint: you're running a job, not a business)
The dangerous trap of “generalist energy”
How to make your business feel lighter instead of heavier
The model that took me to $500K+ with zero team

If you're a freelancer, consultant, or creator trying to break past six figures without building a massive business, this one’s for you.
