For many people, it seems there simply aren't enough hours in the day — and that to achieve significant career success, it's necessary to make major sacrifices in one's personal and family life.
Polymath Josh Felber is proof you can enjoy an illustrious career while still staying grounded in faith, family, and all that matters most.
Felber is an Emmy-winning TV producer, bestselling author, podcast host, entrepreneur, Inc. 5000™ honoree, and co-founder of health optimization company BioLongevity Labs.
He's no stranger to building and scaling businesses; his latest venture is about helping everyday people uncover the secret to better health and longevity.
Felber joined forces with two experts in the health optimization field, Hunter Williams and Jay Campbell, to co-found a venture focused on advancing wellness.
"Jay and Hunter’s expertise lies in the health space," he explains. "Mine is entrepreneurial."
Saying Felber has "entrepreneurial experience" is putting it modestly.
In his 30+ years as an entrepreneur, he has owned over 15 companies.
He started building businesses at 14, and by 25, he had achieved one of his lifelong goals: becoming a millionaire.
He married his wife, Trina (an entrepreneur herself), and they had three children.
Between the pressures of family and the relentless grind of building, scaling, and selling multiple business ventures, Felber found that his time was growing scarcer — and everything suffered as a result.
His relationships began to deteriorate, he started neglecting his businesses, and he began putting his faith and fitness on the back burner.
Felber was stuck, and when he wrote down all of his obligations, he felt worse—there was not enough time in the day to accomplish all he needed to do to succeed.
After spending months wrestling with the problem on his own and finally asking friends, mentors, and family for help, Felber regained his freedom through integration.
Instead of making faith, business, family, and fitness all separate focuses, he began finding new ways to bring them together.
Soon, he found it was possible to keep building billion-dollar ideas while being a present, dedicated father and husband.
And amazingly, every facet of his life improved.
Felber didn't just make time to check everything off his to-do list: his businesses thrived, his health improved, he grew in his faith, and his family was stronger than ever.
Felber has an impressively rigorous approach to time management.
He stresses the significance of exercising extreme caution in his endeavors, giving innovation and influence precedence over merely starting a new company.
His most recent project demonstrates his dedication to providing significant solutions that have an impact.
In addition to his business endeavors, Felber is committed to helping individuals realize their full potential on both a personal and professional level.
He interviews some of the world’s most successful business people to learn their tactics for success through his highly regarded podcast, Making Bank.
He also provides books and classes to help prospective podcasters and business owners on their own paths.
Whether you're an entrepreneur or not, you can still learn from Felber's journey.
It's easy to fall into the trap of leading your work and personal lives in separate vacuums.
It might even seem like sacrificing personal values is essential to achieve whatever success you aspire to.
However, as Felber's story shows, prioritizing your family, faith, and health doesn't mean you have to make concessions in your business.
If anything, integrating your life will help you rediscover your freedom, reclaim your time, and find the joy, satisfaction, and success you have been missing.
