If you’re an advisor who’s building your business, there’s a very good chance you’ve made some grueling sacrifices in return for growth…

Late nights in the office, working on the weekends, and missing important time with family, to name just a few.

It may feel like the only way to grow is to grind; to sacrifice your freedom. That’s what I call the “entrepreneurial lie.” But I promise, there’s a better way. One where you work less, and your business continues to grow.

Today’s guest, Triad member Anthony Pellegrino, is the living proof. Anthony’s business, Goldstone Financial Group, was doing $91M in assets when he started working with Triad. The problem was that he was completely burned out, mentally exhausted, and he was missing life’s most important moments with his wife and kids.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear how Anthony completely shifted his mindset around growth and repositioned the business so it didn’t rely on him to scale.

And despite the fact that he works WAY less, spends more time with family, and vacations for 8 weeks at a time, the business is on pace to reach $250M of new growth in 2023.
