Episode notes

Today I'm joined by Isaac French for a coaching session on his next moves after turning a $2.3 million property investment into a $7 million exit, while building multiple six-figure digital revenue streams.

We map out his options - from launching a content agency and building more properties to scaling his YouTube presence - and explore how to choose between opportunities when you're optimizing for both impact and quality of life.

You'll learn our framework for evaluating opportunities, why enterprise value isn't just about tangible assets anymore, and how to grow strategically without sacrificing what matters most.
