In this episode of We Are Encoded, Chris Walker joins Ross Hudgens to share insights on achieving true freedom beyond just financial success.

After taking his longest vacation ever - nearly a month in Australia, New Zealand, and Fiji - Chris discovered that his businesses could not only survive but thrive without his constant involvement. This experience validated his evolving philosophy on freedom and what it really means to build a business that serves your life rather than the other way around.

Chris reveals that there are actually 10 types of freedom entrepreneurs should pursue, not just the financial freedom that most chase. He explains how letting go of bad clients, delegating effectively, and overcoming the "I'm not good enough" belief pattern can lead to a more fulfilled life and sustainable business.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

• The concept of 10 types of freedom

• Why financial freedom alone often leaves entrepreneurs feeling trapped

• How letting go of limiting beliefs starts with identifying and replacing them

• The power of journaling to uncover thoughts that no longer serve you

• Why resistance with clients and team members is a hint that something is misaligned

• The difference between fake delegation and real delegation

• How to build a business that sustains without your constant involvement

• Why true delegation requires allowing others to solve problems their way

• Breaking free from the belief that suffering is necessary for success

• The shift from "I'll teach you what to do" to "You already know what to do"

This episode reveals how business can be a vehicle for living the life you truly want, not just a means to financial success.
