How to Become a Time Billionaire: Build Wealth, Peace, and Purpose Like Nels Jensen

Today’s episode is a powerful detour from traditional wealth-building strategies as we welcome Nels Jensen to the show. Nels is the CEO of Williamsburg Learning, a thriving entrepreneur, and a dedicated yoga instructor who has mastered the art of integrating business, personal growth, and family. Unlike most stories you hear about the ultra-wealthy, Nels reveals how he became a “time billionaire”—someone who has intentionally created an abundance of free time and peace, not just financial success. In this enlightening conversation, Nels shares his journey from building a fast-growing online education company to structuring his life and business in a way that allows him to take months-long sabbaticals and truly be present with his family. He opens up about the mindset shifts required to move beyond the typical entrepreneurial trap of busyness and burnout, and instead cultivate intentionality, clarity, and harmony. Nels and host Dave Wolcott also explore the deeper aspects of living a fulfilling life—touching on consciousness, personal rituals, and how to invest your time and energy with as much precision as your money. Nels even offers actionable tools like the “Teach the Class” mindset to help listeners break free from self-imposed limitations and find more peace.
