Hey friends, this is a day in the life of actually running the business, filmed on a Friday at our office in Hong Kong. You'll see the two Friday firesides I run for our Lifestyle Business Academy students, a coaching call with Nathan that accidentally turned into new curriculum, me writing this week's LifeNotes using a technique called the splurge, and a slightly unplanned trip to the DJI store. It ends with a pretty honest chat with the team about what it's felt like carrying a business for the last 14 years, which is not something I usually talk about on camera. Hope you enjoy xx
