What does it take to build a business that lasts—without losing yourself or your family along the way?

Michael Hyatt, bestselling author, speaker, and business leader, joins Jay Owen to share his journey of turning around companies, setting boundaries, and creating a life of intentional success. From leading as CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishers to building Full Focus with his daughter as CEO, Michael has lived out the “double win”—winning at work and at home.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why most people “drift” through life—and how to design yours with intention
• The turning point that helped Michael redefine success and protect his family
• Practical ways to set boundaries that create freedom, not constraints
• How to navigate parenting through every season, from kids to adults
• Where AI fits in business and life—and how to use it without losing your humanity

Michael’s story proves that lasting success isn’t about working more hours—it’s about leading yourself first, setting clear boundaries, and building a legacy that matters.
