Frequently asked questions
How do I keep going when life falls apart but the business still needs me?
Accept that nothing pauses. The hosts are blunt that rent, wages, clients and team do not stop, so you have to work through it, and reaching out to people who have already done what you want to do is what frees you up.

The hosts say you can always find a reason it is not the right time, and that time, not money, is the real objection for most owners. Following clear steps, what they call Follow The Formula, is how you free yourself up.
