EPISODE 70 : Scaling to 7 Figures in 6 Months—Without Owning a Single Property

Aaron is a successful entrepreneur who helped scale a seven-figure Airbnb management business in just six months—without owning property or using rental arbitrage. In this episode, he breaks down exactly how that model works and shares the behind-the-scenes challenges, mindset shifts, and strategies that fueled such rapid growth.
We also got personal. I opened up about my own experience running an Airbnb business, and our conversation naturally unfolded into something much deeper—exploring burnout, self-doubt, fear, and how to stay grounded while building something big.
Aaron shares the habits that help him stay mentally clear, how he moved through limiting beliefs, and the lessons learned from selling the business just two years in. This episode is full of real talk about business, balance, and what it truly means to live and grow with intention.
If you're into entrepreneurship, mindset, or building a life that’s both successful and aligned—this one’s for you.
