Today's conversation is with Blake Erickson—entrepreneur, co-founder of Scaling.com, and the unlikely partner who helped Ben Hardy take scaling to the world.

This episode explores the mindset shifts behind exponential growth and the power of setting impossible goals. Blake shares how his journey from missionary work to door-to-door sales eventually led him to a $6M+ business helping others scale, and why thinking better is more powerful than doing more.

We also get personal about my own scaling vision, unpacking how real estate, impact, and podcasting intersect with my mission to serve aging-out foster youth.

If you're struggling to align your business goals with your deeper purpose, I hope this episode sparks the clarity you've been craving.
