#382: Step-by-Step Systems To Eliminate Overwhelm & Work Less

People often ask me, “Amy, what’s the secret to your success?” and I always say that I live and die by systems. In fact, without systems... I could not have a multimillion-dollar business and still have a life. I could not have a four-day workweek and actually make money if I didn’t have systems.
