π¬ This week's episode was inspired by a call I was on this week. I was talking with a good friend who sold his IT business like me. He started a new company, but is finding himself TRAPPED....AGAIN!!!! His new business has the same choke hold that his IT business had on him. That was one of biggest reasons he sold it. Now he doesn't know what to do.
He's working nearly 7 days a week with staff now in 5-6 time zones. He's crushed by the weight of managing all of this NOW while raising 3 kids.
If any of this sounds familiar: please know that you have a CHOICE. Break free from the choke hold by taking control. The flip side is a super scary place!!!!

WHO IS ANDREW MOON, aka the Orange Nomad π β¬β
Iβm a lifelong entrepreneur who has launched and run several successful businesses of my own since age 8. After running a successful technology company (aka #MSP) of my own for 10 years, which I sold in 2014, I founded Orange Nomad to help MSPs, small businesses and entrepreneurs bridge the gap between strategy and execution.
I love helping the βunderdog.β Iβve built my business from nothing and know how hard it can be to start and grow a business when youβve got no money, no help and the world on your shoulders. I help small businesses like ourselves: members of the Fortune 5,000,000. With the Fortune 5,000,000 we have a real shot at making a real impact. That's more satisfying work. Iβm proud to help my clients learn how to build a "calm company". Calm is family first. Calm is more independence. Calm is sustainable practices for the long term. Calm is joyful. Running a calm company is a choice.

What is The Do What Is Necessary Podcast?
Let's be honest: building a company from nothing is incredibly hard. It has been for me. I started my entrepreneurial journey at age 8. Yep, you read that right....8! Since then, I've started, run and sold multiple businesses with no partners and no funding. All my life I've had to build something from nothing, and that's what I've gotten really great at - tenacious, creative and extremely smart strategy coupled with hard work. Welcome to The Do What Is Necessary podcastβIβm your host, Andrew Moon.
Listen in as I share all the mistakes Iβve made and, more importantly, what Iβve learned from them, with no fluff, and no rose-colored glasses. The Do What Is Necessary Podcast is a show where we cut through the toxic hustle and grind mindset and dig into what it actually takes to start and grow a βcalm businessβ. Calm is family first. Calm is more independence. Calm is sustainable practices for the long term. Calm is joyful. Running a calm company is a choice.
