Episode Summary:

In this off-the-cuff episode, Ryan shares a powerful lesson he learned at a Corvette performance driving school—and how it applies directly to growing a service business. It’s not just about going fast; it’s about knowing when to brake. Most small business owners burn themselves out by pushing the gas pedal non-stop, working late, quoting jobs, missing calls, and wondering why they’re stuck. But the ones who scale fast? They slow down at the right moments. Ryan breaks down the mindset shift from operator to owner, why weekly planning and early hiring matter, and how stepping back can set you up to move way faster long-term. If you’re stuck in hustle mode, this episode is your wake-up call.
