How to Reset Your Business After Burnout with Jason Long, Ascendance
Manage episode 504158353 series 2585716
Success isn’t just about hustle—it’s about surviving the chaos of growth.
Jason Long knows this better than most. After building a 30-person agency, he lost it all in the 2008 crash, nearly died in a horrific car accident, and spent years rebuilding both his businesses and himself.
In this episode, Jason and I get real about what scaling actually takes—the mistakes most entrepreneurs make, and the systems that separate struggling founders from professional CEOs.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
- Why 80-hour work weeks are a badge of failure, not success
- The accident that forced Jason to rebuild his brain—and his businesses
- How private equity taught him the power of financial literacy
- The frameworks he blends (EOS, OKRs, forecasting) to actually scale companies
- The mindset shift that frees entrepreneurs from burnout
This one’s raw, practical, and packed with lessons you can apply today.
👉 Looking for a roadmap to scale with less stress? Let's talk.
