Description

Have you ever thought about starting a business? What would you do if money wasn’t a problem? Today, Jay sits down with bestselling author, entrepreneur, and investor Alex Hormozi for a practical and eye-opening conversation about money, business, and what it really takes to succeed. Alex has built and sold multiple companies and now runs Acquisition.com, where he helps scale businesses to over $10 million in revenue. In this episode, Alex breaks down why so many people feel stuck when trying to grow a business. Alex and Jay dive into the common mistakes that hold people back, like chasing passive income too early, mistaking passion for a plan, or seeking freedom without first building discipline. Alex shares the real steps you need to take to start making money now. He explains how to create active income by offering your time and skills, how to craft offers people can’t refuse, and why direct feedback is the fastest path to growth. Jay and Alex also explore the mindset traps that stop people from moving forward, including fear of judgment, comparison, and the pressure to get it perfect the first time. Together Jay and Alex highlight the importance of showing up consistently, being willing to fail, and choosing long-term growth over short-term comfort. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Start a Business with Zero Capital How to Create an Offer People Can’t Refuse How to Increase Your Income by Trading Your Time Intentionally How to Sell Without Feeling Manipulative How to Get Unstuck from the Passive Income Trap If you're ready to stop guessing and start building something real, this episode gives you the clarity, structure, and confidence to move forward.
