From $5M Burnout to Authentic Success: Alexander Ford on Intuition, Failure & Reinvention

Описание: In this powerful and transformative episode of Future Proof Business, host Daniel Rosenstein sits down with entrepreneur, marketing agency founder, and mindset coach Alexander Ford to unpack one of the most raw and revealing business journeys ever shared on the show.

Alexander takes us on a ride — from starting his entrepreneurial journey at age 12 to building a $5 million business… and losing it all — twice.

But this story isn’t about failure.

It’s about what happens when you betray your intuition, outsource your power, and chase someone else’s version of success.

And more importantly, what happens when you finally reclaim your voice, follow your truth, and build a business that’s in alignment with who you really are.

🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
The truth behind growing a multi-million dollar business — and losing it
How most entrepreneurs unknowingly build businesses they hate
Why outsourcing your power (especially in marketing) never works
The hidden costs of ignoring your intuition
What “betraying your intuition” really means
How to stop trying to be saved by others — and become the CEO your business needs
The one identity shift that changes everything
Redefining freedom, leadership, and success
How to make powerful decisions aligned with your truth
Why your belief system is either driving your growth — or your burnout

🧠 Key Takeaways & Insights:
Business should be a reflection of what you truly want, not what you think you're “supposed” to do.
If your ladder is on the wrong wall, climbing faster just gets you lost quicker.
No agency, team member, or funnel can save you — you must lead.
True success starts when you stop trying to get somewhere, and start being someone.
