In this episode, I sit down with Dan Martell—bestselling author of Buy Back Your Time and investor in over 50 companies—to break down the mindset and systems founders need to scale without burning out.

We dive into Dan’s Buyback Loop, his process for delegating and training a team, and how creators can turn a single piece of content into millions of impressions.

Dan also shares why most entrepreneurs hire in the wrong order, how to build systems that run without you, and how he’s using keynotes and content to grow his coaching and education business.

If you want more freedom while growing faster, this is a masterclass.
