Become the Leader Who Delivers Results

A 7-day Productivity Challenge for New Leaders

“In 7 days I stopped reacting and started leading.”

– Alex, First-Time Leader

“Clear, practical, and it works. My team’s results doubled.”

– Jamie, Head of Operations

Who Is It For?

Who is it for?

This challenge is for new leaders – people stepping into a leadership role for the first time.

It’s for those who feel overwhelmed by new responsibilities, struggle to focus on what matters, and rarely have time to think or plan ahead.

We don’t become leaders to sit in meetings all day or write endless reports. We become leaders to make an impact.

This challenge helps you do exactly that – focus, lead with clarity, and deliver real results.

From Surviving to Leading

  • Builds a reputation for reliability and focus
  • Ends each day with a clear sense of progress and purpose

I’ve Been There Too

I still remember my first days as a new leader — feeling overwhelmed, always busy, yet never making real progress. I was jumping from one meeting to another, chasing deadlines, and had no time to stop and think.

I’ve gone through this transition from individual contributor to leader several times, at different companies. Each time, it got a little easier and clearer. I learned what truly matters in a leadership role — and what doesn’t.

Now, after more than a decade in leadership positions at high-growth startups like Bumble and Speechify, I’ve turned those lessons into a clear system. My goal is to save you years of trial and error, so you can focus on leading, growing, and making an impact from day one.

How the 7-Day Challenge Works

You don’t need hours of free time or a quiet retreat to make real change.

1. One Method – One Step at a Time

Reading time: 10–15 minutes

Each day, you’ll unlock one step of the 2X Method – a simple, proven system to organize your focus, priorities, and time as a leader.

Every lesson builds on the previous one, guiding you toward lasting clarity and control.

2. Practice What You Learn

Time required: 10–15 minutes

With every lesson, you’ll get a short practical exercise to put the idea into action right away.

By the end of the week, you’ll have your own version of the 2X Method – built around your goals and a clear path forward.

3. Progress at a Steady Pace

When: After completing your task or 24 hours later

Each new step unlocks once you finish the previous exercise (or automatically after 24 hours).

This keeps you focused and consistent – one day, one small win at a time.

What People Say

For the first time in years, I stopped hustling. I don’t chase tasks all day anymore — I focus on what actually drives results. My days feel lighter and clearer.

Maya R.

I used to doubt if I belonged in a leadership role. The structure from this challenge helped me see progress every day. I finally feel like a real leader, not an imposter.

Alex K.

Our team output literally doubled in a month. The difference? Clear goals and consistent follow-through. Stakeholders noticed — I’ve never had this much recognition.

Sofia M.

I end my days feeling good instead of drained. There’s still work, but it’s the right work. I see progress every single day.

James T.

People started coming to me for advice. It used to be the other way around. My reputation went up because I actually deliver — calmly and on time.

Priya S.

I used to walk out of meetings wondering what just happened. Now most of them actually move my projects forward. We leave with clear next steps instead of more talk.

Liam D.

Before this challenge, I showed up every day out of routine. Now I know why I’m here and what I’m working toward. That alone changed everything.

Emma L.

I used to spend my whole day reacting — messages, fires, random tasks. Now I know exactly where I’m going and what to focus on. It feels steady, not chaotic.

My mind used to jump between ten things at once. Now I can actually focus. I do one thing at a time, finish it, and move on. It’s such a relief.

FAQ

What exactly do I get each day?

You’ll get one short lesson (10–15 min) with real-world examples and one practical task (10–15 min) to apply it right away. If you’re on the Coaching Plan, you can submit your task for written feedback. Total time: about 20–30 minutes per day.

Is this self-paced or do we start on a set date?

It’s self-paced. Your challenge starts the day you purchase, and you can move forward one lesson per day. The next lesson unlocks after you complete the task (or automatically after 24 hours).

I’m already busy – how much time will this take?

About 20–30 minutes per day: 10–15 minutes to read the lesson and 10–15 minutes to complete the task. You can do it in one block or split it across your day.

What if I miss a day or fall behind?

No problem. Lessons unlock daily, but you don’t lose access. You can pause anytime and continue where you left off – the next lesson will be waiting when you’re ready.

How long until I see real results?

You’ll notice benefits from Day 1. The first lesson gives you clear goals and priorities. Each day after that adds a practical tool (planning, time protection, focus, consistency, meetings) so your results improve step by step over the 7 days.

What if it doesn’t work for me – do you offer a guarantee or refund?

Yes. I offer a 7-day, no-questions-asked refund. If the challenge isn’t a fit, request a refund within 7 days of purchase and you’ll get your money back.

Is this just another productivity course? How is it different?

No. This is a leader-focused system built for real challenges: nonstop meetings, urgent fires, stakeholder pressure, and team outcomes. It’s practical and step-by-step – one short lesson and one task per day. I’m an active leader myself and use these tools daily, so everything is tested in real work, not theory.

I already have a system – why should I try this?

If your current system works, keep it. This challenge isn’t about replacing what’s proven – it’s a plug-in you can layer on top.

  • Get a peek into another leader’s day-to-day approach.
  • Borrow one or two tools (e.g., 2X goals, time blocking, accountability) without changing everything.

Use what helps, ignore the rest.

I’m not very disciplined. Will this still help?

Yes. This isn’t about willpower or becoming a robot. It’s about making what matters part of your normal day so you don’t spend much “discipline” to do it.

  • The method is simple and light: one short lesson + one small task per day.
  • Tools like time blocks, clear goals, and quick check-ins reduce the need for self-control.
  • Bare minimum: commit to the 7 days and do the tasks. If you can do that, you’ll see progress.

My job is full of emergencies and meetings – will this work for me?

Yes. This challenge is built for leaders with unpredictable days. Several lessons target exactly this:

  • Finding time: protect small blocks for high-impact work.
  • Defending time: simple rules to keep those blocks from getting eaten by fires.
  • Better meetings: run and join meetings so they drive progress, not drag you off track.

You’ll learn how to stay in control even when things break, and still make steady progress every day.

Do I need any special tools or apps? Can I do it on mobile?

No special tools needed. You’ll use what you already have: your calendar and a simple task list. I suggest a few optional tools, but they’re not required. And yes — you can do everything on mobile.

Can my company pay for it / can I expense it? Do you offer team plans?

Usually yes – if your company has a learning or education budget, you can pay with a company card or buy it and expense it. You’ll get a receipt (and an invoice on request) to attach to your expense.

There’s no team plan right now. If you’re buying for several people, you can purchase individual seats.

How long do I keep access?

Forever. Your access doesn’t expire—you can revisit the lessons and tasks anytime. If I update the material, you’ll get the updated version too.

Will you see my data or tasks?

Only if you choose to submit your task for feedback. Even then:

  • I don’t ask for your name, company, or other personal details.
  • You can redact anything sensitive before submitting.
  • Your submission is used only to give feedback – it’s not shared.
  • If you want it removed, just ask and I’ll delete it.

If you don’t submit anything, I won’t see your data.

Is my information private and secure?

Yes. I don’t share your data with anyone.

  • Data is stored in secure cloud storage (GCP) using industry-standard encryption in transit and at rest.
  • Access is limited and logged.
  • I collect only what’s needed to run the challenge (e.g., account/payment handled by trusted processors).
  • You can request deletion of your data at any time.

If you choose not to submit any tasks for feedback, I won’t see your content at all.
