Synopsis
This show is designed to help middle-income professionals who aspire to start a business online from home overcome the overwhelm, gain clarity, and confidently take a low-risk step towards their overall goal. The problem is that they are feeling very overwhelmed, not knowing how, where, or when to start. Their ultimate goal is to attain financial independence and time freedom. However, in the meantime, they are looking for a way to do what they truly love, make money from it without jeopardizing what's most important to them. Trading hours for dollars, being robbed of quality time with family, and not having the freedom to manage their own time, is getting to them. This show will help them solve that problem because the host--Kingsley Grant--have been there and done that. He wants to help them do the same.
