The 3-Step Formula for Winning

THE BACKSTAGE | Dylan, Vic, Anna and Abbie revisit the staff's quarterly finance conversation and unpack the 3-step formula for winning: 1) No one is coming to save you, 2) You're responsible for your position - whether or not it's your fault, and 3) You have to sacrifice who you are today for who you want to become. They walk through the exercises used with staff, including mapping out a financial "end game" and running the math on what it actually takes to get there. They also share personal stories of debt, delayed belief, and the shame of assuming everyone else has it figured out, tracing how small actions build belief over time. They connect the framework beyond finances to parenting, health, and everyday work, landing on the same truth: agency changes everything and there are 3 steps to making it happen.
