from The Path to Mastery · host Ryan Lang & Brook Bishop

In this episode, Ryan Lang and Brook Bishop break down the one identity question that changes everything: who do you have to become to actually scale?They unpack why staying in delivery isn't noble — it's avoidance. Why charging per hour is employee thinking. And why the very habits that made you great at your craft are exactly what's keeping your business stuck.Using the example of Tony Robbins — from feeding 1,000 people to a vision of feeding 1 billion — they show what's possible when you stop being the bottleneck and start owning the outcome.Join Ryan and Brook for this episode of Path To Mastery where they talk about why your skills aren't your business — and what to do about it.Enjoy the podcast?
