What does it take to scale a business with the same discipline learned in the military?

In Episode 20 of Growth Under Pressure, Eric Josovitz sits down with Tyrus Shivers, Founder and CEO of Legacy Wealth Capital Group, to share the real, unfiltered journey of entrepreneurship.

From serving in the United States Air Force to becoming a partner in seven companies, Tyrus explains how military discipline, systems, and structure shaped the way he builds and scales businesses today.

He also opens up about what most founders do not talk about. The failure, the debt, the pressure, and the mental toll that comes with growth.

-The mindset shift from operator to investor

-Why most entrepreneurs make emotional and costly decisions
