About this episode

“The things that we do that we say aren't scalable… it's just a cop-out.” Today, Leila (@LeilaHormozi) shares the importance of building courage, the art of pursuing dreams despite fear and pivotal early career experiences like their first sales encounter. She emphasizes that the key to business success is not just about making money but also about making an impact by considering the efficacy of products/services, employee satisfaction, and strong client results. Leila encourages aspiring entrepreneurs to understand why their businesses work, to anticipate fluctuation and to better their skill sets to ensure business longevity and success.
