In this dynamic episode, I sit down with Legacy Mike—entrepreneur, speaker, mastermind leader, and business investor—for a bold conversation about what it really takes to lead your life and business from the top down. From building multiple successful companies to launching a national mastermind, Legacy Mike shares the mindset shifts, systems, and priorities that have helped him scale while staying grounded in his mission.
We dive into how to stop managing every detail, how to build a company that runs without you, and the importance of building a life that aligns with your legacy—not just your next paycheck.
🔥 Here’s what we cover:
Vision Over Grind
Why most entrepreneurs are stuck in the business—and how to rise above it.
The “Doer → Manager → Owner” framework and how it applies to every task, every hire, and every day.
The power of building a team that supports your goals so you can live the life you want.
Legacy Entrepreneurs: From Mission to Movement
How Legacy Mike launched a coaching program during COVID that evolved into a national community.
Why it’s not about “what can I do for my business”—but “what can my business do for me?”

Personal Mission First
Why your business, your team, and your goals must align with your life’s mission—not the other way around.

The challenge: if your business has a mission—but your life doesn’t—it’s time to course-correct.
Focus, Faith & Flexibility
How to recognize decision fatigue and simplify your yes/no filter.
Why hiring an executive assistant was one of the best moves Mike made for freedom and focus.
Why weekly date nights, time off, and full presence are now part of his business plan—and why that’s a real flex.
