**This is Part 2**
Renee La Tour and I pick up where we left off discussing the importance of strategy and leverage in business. Renee and her partner travel the world full-time, working from anywhere, regardless of the time zone. When it comes to their core business, they collectively spend about 5 hours a week on it, which didn't happen overnight. It takes a whole lot of focus, systems and leverage to make that happen. So in this episode, Renee will share what she sees most entrepreneurs are missing when it comes to leverage and strategy that they could implement today and the one thing you need to embrace to make your "someday" dream a reality.
