Jess Chan scaled to 7 figures fast, then tore it all down. Today, she’s worth ~$10M, spends less than ever, and says profit > revenue every time.

Here’s what we talk about:

• Jess hit $40K/month as a freelancer, then walked away to build her agency, Longplay.
• Why chasing $1M in revenue nearly burned her out, and what she did to rebuild.
• The shift from ego-driven growth to sustainable, profitable business.
• How embracing feminine leadership transformed her company and her life.
• Her net worth is ~$10M, but her monthly spend has dropped to ~$6K.
• The underrated skill: learning how to spend money well.
• Why contentment and ambition can coexist and how chasing more can actually cost you.
• Jess’s financial setup: super simple. Mostly ETFs. Barely checks it.
