Alright, let's lay it all out there. No punches pulled. You're in the restaurant game. And let's be brutally honest, it feels like you're sacrificing everything. Your body, your relationships, your mental health, all in the name of success. You bought into this age old, deeply flawed mantra, fix the business first and then go back and fix all the other things in your life. But here's the hard cold truth that's been gnawing at the edges of your sanity. Sacrificing your life to your restaurant is not just unsustainable, it's downright unacceptable. I've walked this path before. I've really actually felt the burn of those sacrifices. And I've seen the light on the other side. And let me tell you, it wasn't divine intervention or a stroke of luck that got me there. It was a grueling process of reevaluation, of unlearning toxic habits, dumping those fucked up belief systems that had me chained to a cycle of never ending sacrifice. My journey, which I totally laid out 100% in Savage Restaurant success isn't a tale of woe, but a beacon for those ready to chart a new course. I mean, the old way of doing things, it is a path paved with, I mean, really good intentions. But it's littered with the wreckage of dreams. Deferred lives have lived the model of fix the business and then fix. Everything in your life is fundamentally broken. It is a recipe for regret, not for success. Your restaurant should be a source of pride, not a prison from which you're constantly planning your escape from. It needs to be your joy. Right, so where do we go from here? How do we escape this kind of gravitational pull of these deeply ingrained habits and beliefs that keep us tethered to a life of sacrifice? Well, the answer lies in transformation. Not just of your business, but of yourself. To address this, I've created a, I would say a revolutionary new program. It's called Warrior Restaurants. This new coaching program is more than just a collection of tools and resources. It is a metamorphosis. It is designed for those who are ready to break free from the cycle of sacrifice. To transform into the person that they must become, not just to survive, but to thrive in both their restaurant and their life. Warrior Restaurants isn't for the faint of heart. It is for those that are really ready, I mean truly ready, to confront their effed up belief systems head on. Do the hard work on building a business that enriches their lives, not consumes it. So if you're looking for easy answers or if you're looking for shortcuts or a hack, you won't find them here because that's not what this is about. But if you're prepared, I mean really prepared to embark on a journey of real lasting change, to really embrace transformation, to rise above the broken model and claim the life in the restaurant that you really desire, then Warrior Restaurants is definitely for you.

If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
