The Price of Passion: When Studio Owners Stop Paying Themselves

Studio owners, this one’s for the do-it-all leaders running on fumes. If you’ve ever felt like the pilot, the crew, the mechanic, and the air traffic control of your business — all at once — it’s time to rethink your flight plan.

- Who your co-pilot is (or who you wish it was)?

- The first checklist you're committing to build this week
