EP | 729 - I Spent $55K to Learn This One Lesson About Asking for Help

Author: Erin Dimond and Jordan Dugger March 26, 2026 Duration: 21:50

A few weeks ago, I spent fifty-five thousand dollars trying to fix myself.

Not on a business problem. Not on a marketing campaign. On me. On my mental and physical state. And honestly? I'll get into the details of what that experience was like in a minute — but right now I want to tell you the most important thing I came home with.

And it wasn't anything the clinic gave me.

It was a reminder of something I already knew — the most important skill you can develop as a business owner isn't your work ethic. It isn't your offer. It isn't your content strategy. It's the ability to figure shit out.

And figuring shit out really just means one thing.

Knowing when to ask for help. And actually doing it.
