Free. Up to 30 owner-operators. Starts Tuesday 27 October 2026.

Take your business to a three day week by 8 December 2026

Up to 30 owner-operators, 7 weeks, one area a week. I'm doing it with Disrupta at the same time, in the open, so you're not watching someone who has already solved it. Sign ups close Monday 26 October 2026.

Register by Monday 26 October

What it is

The Handover is a free 7 week program for owner-operators taking their business to a three day week, while host Nathan Wade does the same with his own business, in the open. Each session, the mentor teaches their method, then works on Nathan's real business live, over the shoulder, then answers cohort questions. Then you implement the same thing in your own business that week.

Seven live sessions from 27 October to 8 December 2026, online via Zoom. Sessions are on Tuesdays, 1:00 to 2:30pm AEDT (Sydney time), except David Jenyns' session on Wednesday 4 November, 2:00 to 3:30pm AEDT (Sydney time). Sessions are recorded for the cohort.

It is not a webinar series. Nothing changes if you only turn up.

What's asked of you

  • Seven live sessions, ninety minutes each, from 27 October to 8 December 2026. Tuesdays, 1:00 to 2:30pm AEDT (Sydney time), except David Jenyns' session on Wednesday 4 November, 2:00 to 3:30pm AEDT (Sydney time)
  • Do the week's work in your own business
  • A short survey at the start and at the end
  • Two people close to you answer one question at the end

That last one is the real measure. Anyone can move numbers on a spreadsheet.

What it costs

Nothing.

There is no upsell and nothing to buy at the end.

This is my community project for the Landmark Self-Expression and Leadership Program. The result I'm committed to is up to 30 owner-operators working three days a week or fewer by 8 December 2026. That is the entire reason it exists.

When the program finishes, members can run the Market Position Report on their own business: where they sit in their industry, how competitors position themselves against them and the channel mix that fits. Free, optional, nothing to buy. Built live in Week 3.

Why me, honestly

I run Disrupta. I currently work six days a week.

I'm not running this because I've cracked it. I'm running it because I haven't and because doing it alone hasn't worked. I'll be in the same cohort as you, doing the same work, on the same weeks, with my numbers on the screen.

Meet your mentors
