In this special episode, Gresham shares that he’s already 290 days into his franchise‑broker venture, highlighting the everyday challenges of entrepreneurship—early mornings, fatigue, and the need for continual self‑rebooting.

He describes an experiment with ChatGPT to identify ways to overhaul his business processes, acknowledging that minor tweaks aren’t enough when foundational issues exist. He likens the situation to trying to replace drapes on a shaky house; the real work must start at the foundation.

Moving forward, Gresh envisions a lean team structure: himself as the visionary, an integrator, and a virtual assistant to help rebuild the business step by step.
