At 25, Darius built a thriving home decor brand through dropshipping, pulling in over $40K/month from his laptop.

And he lost everything, his brand, his revenue, even his slogan.

In this episode, Xavier exposes how paperwork, pressure, and misplaced trust can destroy a business.

We unpack the red flags, the lessons, and the painful truth: being the creator doesn’t mean you’re the owner.
