7FF 526: Do You Have to Give Up Your Family to be Successful?

February 17, 2022

About This Episode

Do you ever feel like you’re forced to choose between “success” and “family?”


Sometimes it feels like we can’t have both…


We feel like we have to give up time with our spouse and kids to focus on business… or stick to “playing small” in the business world if we want to prioritize family.


We’ve all met people who made millions of dollars but lost all their important relationships in the process… and we DON’T want to turn out like that.


So what’s the answer?


Do you HAVE to make this choice? One or the other?


Or is there a better way?


This is one of the things that came up in my conversation with real estate investor Joseph Druther today…


Joseph is a member of the 8 Figure Entrepreneur group.


We just spent 4 days hanging out at our first 8 Figure event.


I asked Joseph to join me on the 7 Figure Flipping Podcast and share some of the breakthroughs he had… and we got into some really interesting stuff!


Listen in now!


I know this topic resonates with a lot of people.


As entrepreneurs, we all have to wrestle with this…


And overcoming this “obstacle” could be the thing that finally allows you to put your focus where it needs to be (for you and for your loved ones).


So take some time today and listen to this episode.


Take care!
