    Thanks so much for having me on! It was an honor to be on the podcast and host you at our mastermind. I've been watching your content for years. I love the visionary/integrator relationship you and Angus have, and you are just as nice in person as you are online!

    Really insightful, thank you both :) I'm in the process of launching my business Clearly Wellbeing and creating a membership site, so this has been an incredible resource, and I think Scaling School is where I need to be next ;)

    Gold nuggets that so many interviews don't hit cause they use the same formula of how did you get there for 90% of the video. This is opposite 10% how you get there and 90% actionable running a business. ❣

    Lol, my husband has a similar story: pre-med, took a year off to study for MCATs (while working at a genetics lab at St. Jude), but as studying biochem had a thought, do I want to do this for the next 6+ years to become an MD? Or do I go to culinary school and become a chef (always his side passion)? Now he is a Certified Exectutive Chef who owns his own artisan pasta business.

    Wow, Ravi is pretty brutal when it comes to hiring and firing. I guess it comes down to growth over everything else. These are people that took a chance on a start up and wanted to grow with it.

    Ravi’s scaling school is actually insane for $97 lol. Just used his full many chat automation template to make my own for my insta and that alone was prob like 7k in value. Still over 30 trainings I haven’t watched yet lol

    After watching this episode I tried the course of Ravi. I found it to be very disappointing, to the point that I strongly doubt the self claimed achievements of Ravi. To me it felt like another snake oil salesman selling a course about selling a course. I would definitely not recommend this course to anyone.

    I also wanted to be a lawyer after watching a show called "justice for all" here in South Africa. My dad stopped me though, said lawyers are liars, now I'm a drop out working in IT for the biggest cloud computing company in the world and planning to start a business this year.

    Legitimate question on Ravi’s hiring strategy he outlined… How do you know you need to replace a current GM/exec with a more experienced person with more qualifications if you (being the founder) don’t know the exact requirements of the role, only that you’re looking for growth? I guess my own personal belief is that if you have rigid objectives and goals and the person currently within the role isn’t performing up to that standard, then maybe the outside hire makes sense. But even the high level exec with experience had to learn and grow at some point in their career…if somebody gave up on them simply because the company was growing quickly then they wouldn’t have the qualifications they have today. Not saying the advice is wrong by any means, just a question/thought.

    Ali pls go back to having genuine CEOs on your show: Daniel Priestly, Alex Hormozi and Ravi Abuvala are people who got rich by talking about how to get rich lol, their business is their brand, they don’t actually create anything apart from viral content
