634. Scrambled Egg Brain

Recorded on: Monday, July 14, 2025, 09:55 PM Episode Summary by AI I reflected on Dan Martell’s advice to stop selling time and start selling outcomes, realizing I need to move away from hourly work. While still relying on hourly jobs to pay off debt, I began cold DM outreach to fitness coaches using a Notion tracker I built. Messaging 11 accounts was surprisingly fun, unlike my past outreach in fitness. I also struggled with complex Notion automation but stayed driven, discovering new formula tricks along the way.
