## Resource

I sat down with Amy Calandrino to talk about one of the biggest traps in small business, owning a job instead of an asset. We unpacked the real difference between momentum and just being stuck on a treadmill, how real estate can either unlock freedom or bury you, and why most people overcomplicate entrepreneurship. If you're serious about building something durable, not just flashy, this conversation is worth your time.
