Summary
Shalimdar quit his 9-to-5 as a UI/UX designer, went full-time freelance, and hit a new income high. The problem? He's working more hours than ever—and still doesn't feel like he owns his time. Preston and AJ Cassata from Revenue Boost dig into exactly why this happens and walk through a practical framework for diagnosing where your time is actually going, what to cut, what to automate, and what to hand off—so you can stop trading every hour for a dollar and start running your business like a founder.
