Are you living like a successful entrepreneur—or just looking like one? In this episode of Coaching Inc., Rich Lennon delivers one of the most dangerous habits entrepreneurs fall into: pretending they’re rich while sinking in debt. From luxury trucks to missed tax bills, Rich unpacks how appearances can deceive—and how debt can quietly strangle your business. It’s a candid, unfiltered look at the toxic financial patterns many business owners justify, and a wake-up call to flip the script. If you’ve ever felt the pressure to keep up, this episode is a dose of clarity.

You’ll Learn How To

  • (04:27–05:03) Missing tax bills = 10% penalty mistakes..
  • (05:11-05:35) Good debt creates income, bad debt delays growth.
