Scaling a digital agency beyond $30K months doesn't happen by accident—and it won’t happen if you're still running everything yourself. In this episode, I talk with Nathan Newberry about the exact systems, strategies, and mindset shifts he used to grow, sell, and then coach others to scale their agencies through what he calls the AI Freedom Method.

This isn’t surface-level automation talk. Nathan walks us through the leadership principles and operational frameworks that allow ambitious founders to shift from exhaustion and chaos into clarity and scale—without sacrificing their health, family, or freedom. We explore what it really means to delegate with excellence, leverage AI intentionally, and build sales and fulfillment systems that operate without your constant presence. If you’re ready to cross the threshold from stuck to scaling, this conversation will show you what’s missing, why it matters, and how to build a business that doesn’t rely on you being everywhere at once.

Books Mentioned:

• Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell
• Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki
• Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan
• The Bible (specifically, the Gospel of John)
