0:00.0	You're listening to Cupicle to CEO, episode 268. When you're overworked in your business,
0:05.0	the last thing you want to do is add an after-hours commitment. But a strategic evaluation process
0:10.1	completed in the evenings over a two-week window is exactly what allowed this week's
0:14.7	guest to cut her weekly working hours from 45 down to just 15. Serial entrepreneur and founder of the pursuit company, Amanda Moffitt,

1:50.7	case study for us today. It's all about how she implemented this gold framework in her own
1:56.6	business to reduce her working hours from around 45 hours a week down to 15 hours a week, which is so impressive. You basically shaved off like a full week's worth of tasks off your place. So anyways, before we get into that, Amanda, I would love to hear your cubicle to CEO's story. What was that catalyst that launched you into entrepreneurship?
2:18.9	Yes. So I feel like I have a pretty unusual start into the business world. I was offered to
