And Brandon looking around at the life we'd worked so hard for and asking, why in the world would we ever want to go back to a place that got us here?

243: Profit Over Perfectionism
Boldly Becoming You
If you've ever rewritten a sales email eleven times, let a brilliant content idea rot in your notes app, or word-vomited through an entire discovery call trying to prevent a question nobody asked yet, this episode is going to make a lot of things click. The sales email you can't send, the post you can't publish, the price you over-explained before anyone complained, that's not a discipline problem or a character flaw.

And no amount of content calendars or launch plans is going to fix that. They get into all of it in this episode - including what it actually took for them to stop pouring money into the wrong...
