SaaS Dads E/12-12: The Billion-Dollar Balance, HighLevel’s Shaun Clark on Building & Raising Legends
You’re scaling your SaaS. Your inbox is a war zone. Your kid just wants five minutes.
Sound familiar?
🎙️ This episode goes inside the mind of Shaun Clark, Co-Founder & CEO of HighLevel, the guy who built a billion-dollar rocketship and raised a son who’s cold-pitching businesses at 12.
No sugarcoating. No hype. Just the brutally honest reality of what it takes to build something massive without burning down your family in the process.
You’ll hear how Shaun balances scaling one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies on the planet with being a present dad, the wins, the failures, the sleepless nights, and the lessons he’s passing on about grit, rejection, and chasing greatness.
🎯 Here’s what you’ll walk away with:
👉 Why your kid's first cold call matters more than your next product update
👉 The lie of "balance" and how to build a business that bends to your family, not breaks it
👉 What HighLevel's founder would never sacrifice, no matter how big it gets
👉 How to lead at home and at scale without dropping either
