What really happens when you put a room full of successful entrepreneurs together for three days in Sedona? Is it some "secret club" strategy that nobody else knows about?

In this episode, I'm giving you an exclusive look inside our first 7-figure mastermind retreat of the year. This is the 10th year I've run this mastermind, and I'm sharing the raw, unfiltered observations of what is actually working in the online business space right now.

We're diving into the framework that balances your growth, why your current plateau is actually an invitation to expand your "energetic container," and the one law of problem-solving that will change how you handle hurdles forever.

If you've been feeling like you're working harder but staying in the same place, it's likely because you're running the wrong play. These are the specific patterns I'm seeing across the board with our highest-level students, and it's time for you to use what they're learning and step into the identity of a true Digital CEO too!
