From Tradie to Seven-Figure Mentor: Building Business Foundations That Last With James Swanwick

from Alcohol-Free Lifestyle

Is your business a scalable machine or just a full-time job that's wearing you down? James Swanwick sits down with Jeff Lester to discuss the transition from a "tradie" (carpenter) to a high-level mentor for seven-figure entrepreneurs. Discover the "Chippy's Blueprint", why skipping levels in your business foundation leads to inevitable collapse and how to identify the warning signs of entrepreneurial burnout. Jeff shares his personal cautionary tale of losing it all in Brazil and how he rebuilt using the Faith, Fitness, Finances, and Flow framework. Learn why strategic thinking is your highest leverage tool, how to navigate the "Shiny Object Syndrome" of AI in 2026, and why embodied wisdom from a mentor is the ultimate shortcut to long-term success.   Download my FREE guide: The Alcohol Freedom Formula For Over 30s Entrepreneurs & High Performers: https://social.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/podcast ★ - Learn more about Project 90: www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/Project90 ★ - (Accountability & Support) Speak verbally to a certified Alcohol-Free Lifestyle coach to see if, or how, we could support you having a better relationship with alcohol: https://www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/schedule ★ - The wait is over – My new book "CLEAR" is now available.
