Burn the Playbook: Joanne Bolt on Funnels, AI, and Being Unapologetic

Y’all are gonna love this one.

I sat down with my girl Joanne Bolt—someone I met a few years back in a mastermind and who has completely reinvented herself since then. Joanne used to run a $56 million real estate business (yep, you read that right) and walked away from it all in search of peace. And spoiler alert: she found it—and built an online business that actually lights her up.

We talked all about:

• Why peace of mind is the real luxury now—and how to earn it
  
• What made her walk away from real estate at the peak of success
  
• How she pivoted from teaching agents to coaching women entrepreneurs using email, funnels, and podcasts
  
• The exact shift that helped her monetize her podcast (without editing a d*mn thing)
  
• Why she ditched live launching and how her evergreen bootcamp turned into a mastermind
  
• Her best tips for segmentation, automation, and why she ditched Kajabi for ActiveCampaign
  
• How she finally embraced her unapologetic, F-bomb-dropping self (and what gave her permission to go all in)
  
  

We also talked about using AI in business (you need to hear her rant), how to stop following someone else’s playbook, and the mindset shift she thinks every woman needs to hit her million-dollar breakthrough.

Joanne’s a straight shooter and she gives you real strategies with none of the fluff. So if you’re done feeling stuck or following someone else’s path, this one’s for you.
