🔥 THE BRUTAL TRUTH!

➜ You built your business to have more freedom — but now it feels like a trap.

➜ You’re doing everything.

➜ Managing too much. Delegating too little.

➜ Your tech stack is a mess. Your offer isn’t clear. Your growth has flatlined.

You’re not lazy. You’re just stuck inside the business you created.

Here’s the truth: You don’t need another strategy call.

You need a reset — in how your business runs, and how you run it.

That’s why I created Founder Rehab.

👉 A 90-day, no-fluff business reset for founders doing $100K+ who are overwhelmed, stuck, or near burnout.

👉 You’ll get a full bottleneck diagnosis of your entire business.

👉 We’ll simplify, delegate, and rebuild your time, clarity, and mental energy.

👉 You get me in your corner — async, strategic, honest, and execution-minded.

This is not coaching.

This is real-world help for smart founders who’ve hit a wall.
