In this episode, we close out the Kickstarter vision series by helping you craft a personal and business vision that actually moves the needle. Jay and I walk through what it means to write a vision from your future self, how to reverse-engineer your next steps, and the power of building your calendar around the life you want—not the hustle you’re stuck in.

We also dig into why most people stay stuck in confusion, how to set boundaries that align with your goals, and how our own vision work gave us clarity, peace, and purpose. Whether you’re building your first rental or scaling your portfolio, this episode is about getting crystal clear on where you’re going—and who you need to be to get there.
