The Biggest Mistake I Made Chasing The Biggest Mistake I Made Chasing "Financial Freedom"

Chris Dufey Podcast

Most people say they want financial freedom. Very few ever define what that actually means. And that’s where everything goes wrong. This video isn’t about getting rich. It’s about getting free. For real. I’m sharing this because I’ve lived both sides. Sleeping on a couch. My wife pregnant with our first child. Halfway across the world in Dubai. Selling everything I owned with one question looping in my head: ”Can I actually give them the life they deserve?” I was trapped in time-for-money. Burnt out. Chasing cash thinking it would fix how I felt inside. It didn’t. What changed...

Chris Dufey Podcast

Most people think money fixes everything. It doesn’t. It just exposes what you never defined in the first place. My recent conversation with Sharran Srivatsaa (Acquisition.com President) starts with a quiet tension: building something big while trying not to lose the people who matter most. Fatherhood. Money. Ambition. Guilt. All colliding at once. The truth is this: More income without a framework doesn’t buy freedom. It buys anxiety with better branding. In this episode, we go deep on what actually works: • Why freezing your lifestyle is the real cheat code • The exact definition of...

Every Funnel I Tried Failed… Except This One show art Every Funnel I Tried Failed… Except This One

Chris Dufey Podcast

Most funnels don’t fail quietly. They drain your time. Your energy. And your belief that this shit can actually work. So I tested every (yes, every) funnel so you don’t have to. VSLs. Webinars. Challenges. Tripwires. Quiz funnels. DM scripts. All of it. It took me nine months, and more money than I care to admit. And here’s the truth no one wants to say out loud: Most funnels suck. Unless you’re already internet famous… Have a massive following… Or host a podcast with Tim Ferriss… Almost any funnel can work. But what about the rest of us? What if you’re just a damn good coach...

Chris Dufey Podcast

Most entrepreneurs claim they're building their business for their family, but their calendar tells another story. In this video, I share how I built a “successful” business on paper. Revenue was climbing, Stripe was pinging, everyone thought I was winning. But behind the scenes, I was overworked, disconnected from my wife and kids, and losing myself in the grind. Until I got a wake-up call I couldn’t ignore. This is the true story of how I simplified everything, leaned on systems, and built a business that no longer runs me—so I could scale without sacrifice.

Chris Dufey Podcast

If you’re still stuck selling, delivering, and scrambling for the next sale, this will hit home. One client added $318,000 in recurring revenue in 30 days. No viral reels. No fancy funnels. No massive team. Just a better system. Most coaches are trapped on the high-ticket hamster wheel. Make a sale, deliver, repeat. It feels like growth, but it’s just a business built on burnout. The moment leads dry up, panic sets in. And the cycle starts all over again. I’ll show you how to break free from that trap and install the same 3-part system we use to scale coaches to $100K–$300K+ months...

If you’re a coach or consultant stuck on calls, solving every problem, and still waiting for freedom, this is for you. I’ve built and sold coaching businesses, scaled new ones to $200K months in under 90 days, and helped 7–9 figure founders grow clean, profitable companies that don’t depend on them. This podcast is about building a business that gives you your life back. No "hustle" or productivity hacks, just real systems that work. -------- In this episode: 00:00 Tired of working hard with no freedom? 00:13 Who I am and what we do 00:32 Why I started this channel 00:41 Million-dollar...

If this is our first time meeting, Hey, I’m Chris Dufey—the founder of The Rainmakers…

 

A partner-led marketing and sales firm that sells over $52M a year in coaching programs.

 

Not that long ago, I was sleeping on a couch, sweating over how to build a business before my first daughter showed up. 

 

She showed up right on time, and I wasn’t ready.

 

NOW?

 

As a father to 4, living between Bali and Australia, and having sold my last company recently—I get to be the brains behind some of the best online businesses, while still making time for school pickups and surf lessons.

 

How I got here…

 

* 18: Became a Personal Trainer because I was the fat kid who wanted abs (and let’s be honest, I also wanted girls to like me).

* 21: Built a Personal Training agency with coaches across Sydney gyms.

* 25: Moved to Dubai, started a business, had my first child, and learned how much coffee a new dad can survive on.

* 27: Moved to Bali to “start an online business” (aka had no idea—and did everything to figure it out).

* 28: Launched a supplement company that went up in flames (no sugarcoating it).

* 29: Stumbled into business coaching because personal trainers wanted to know how I was living abroad while still selling fitness.

* 31: Founded Coaches Cartel—coaching, software, and virtual teams for fitness pros.

* 34: Became a father of four while trying to manage a traveling circus of six.

* 35: Sold my multi-7-figure coaching business.

* 36: Started consulting 6-, 7-, and 8-figure coaches and CEOs, paying me up to $25k a month.

 

Today: Our partner-portfolio businesses generate over $52M a year in coaching offers. My internal sales team closes over $1M a month in deals for our partners.

 

I’m not a business coach, I don’t sell courses or masterminds.

 

I make money by building my partners businesses — which is why I’m happy to share all my strategies for free.

 

My Youtube channel, Instagram and Essays (https://www.chrisdufey.com/essay/) are just me showing up, sharing how I’m building a business and life I love.

 

It’s for men who want success that doesn’t just look good on Instagram—it feels good when they wake up in the morning.

 

Because what’s the point of being rich if you’re tired, grumpy, and lonely?

 

So yeah, my content is my side hustle…

 

It’s where I help men build businesses they’re proud of and lives they actually enjoy. 

 

Wealth, health, relationships—because you need all three to win the game.

 

P.S. I’m here to help, and honestly, me just talking to a camera all day gets old fast. 

 

So drop a comment, ask a question, or throw out a thought. I’m just a dude figuring sh*t out, and I’d love to jam with you.
