🎯 One Clear Purpose Per Day
How I’m building a creative life without burning out.

In this episode, I share a breakthrough that’s reshaped how I work, create, and stay sane as a one-person business.

We all know the pressure: create content, stay visible, market yourself. But in a world where Alex Hormozi is spending millions a month on content and ad teams—and Gary Vee is shouting "post 24/7"—what does that mean for the rest of us?

The ones without teams. The ones juggling freelance work, family, burnout—and still trying to make something meaningful.

This episode isn’t about rejecting content. It’s about finding a rhythm that respects your limits and moves the needle.

I talk about:

• How I structure my week across newsletter, podcast, and YouTube
• The principle of “One Clear Purpose Per Day”—and how it’s helped me regain focus and protect my energy
• The story of almost quitting post-pandemic, and what pulled me back
• The deeper cost of hustle culture—and how to build a sustainable path as a creative

If you’re a creator, artist, or indie builder feeling overwhelmed or behind—this is for you. Not a masterclass. Just a fellow traveller sharing what’s working right now.
