    What if the very pursuit of profit is the trap keeping your business—and your life—from true freedom? Making Money is Killing Your Business delivers a jolt to the conventional wisdom of entrepreneurship, urging business owners to trade endless busyness for intentional legacy-building. With bold clarity and a liberating tone, it redefines success as time, purpose, and impact—rather than just the bottom line. Can you build a business that makes meaning, not just money? This book is a wake-up call for those tired of being owned by what they’ve built.
