Built for More

The Work-Life Playbook for Entrepreneurs Who Want It All

Built for More is a candid, actionable book for founders and high-performers who feel like they’ve created a successful business, but at the cost of their time, energy, and peace of mind. Written for those stuck in the cycle of overwork and bottlenecking their own growth, the book offers a path toward building a company that runs without you, scales sustainably, and serves the life you actually want to live.

Drawing on years of experience helping entrepreneurs regain clarity, autonomy, and momentum, Built for More breaks down how to escape the “owner trap,” productize what you offer, and lead with systems instead of stress. Whether you’re planning your next stage of growth or just trying to reclaim your calendar, this is the book to help you get there.
