if you're stuck in a business model that has you working too many hours for too little money, it's time to rethink your strategy. 'cause trading time for money only gets you so far -- and often burn out hits along the way.
of course, time in-person with students is essential -- it keeps us inspired, connected to the community, and is the reason we started teaching in the first place. but, we can't rely solely on ourselves as teaching vehicles.
what if we get sick? want to start a family? or want to travel?
