Everyone asking, “Are Alex and Leila actually there?”
Sometimes yes.
Sometimes no.
If they show up for your session, that’s a bonus.
Truth is, that’s completely the wrong question because the real lesson is that they don’t have to be.
Think about that.
Most founder-led businesses are so heavily dependent on the founder. Take the founder away and business bombs.
has built something different.
They’ve built systems, people, infrastructure and leadership that can deliver an incredible experience whether the Hormozi’s are in the room or not.
Guys, they’re teaching scale whilst demonstrating scale!
You’ll also notice there isn’t content inside the workshop itself either. No filming - which means you actually have to be THERE.
You can’t consume through someone else’s reel. You have to sit in the room and ask the questions. Actually work on your business 😂
So to the hundreds and thousands of people asking whether it’s worth it, shoot your shot 🏀

A special thank you to everyone who celebrated with me last night. Not everyone is in these photos (lol at majority with all the girls, standard behaviour 😂) and especially my two besties, Liv & Cel, I’ll save ours for private memories 🫶 I appreciate you all individually. My friendship with you all are independent and unique but each one makes my life so much fuller.
And to , for the reminder that perhaps this next chapter is about going all in on me 🥹🥠
I don’t know exactly what the looks like yet.
But I’m ready.
Love you all deeply, thank you for all the love online here too 💞 I read every comment and message, and I’ll work my way through them all as quick as I can x
