#184 ENG 6 Business Lessons I Learned Riding 177 Kilometers in the French Alps
Manage episode 491101245 series 3663104
Welcome to today’s episode.
This one’s a bit different – and a little sweaty.
Last Sunday, I rode La Marmotte.
One of the toughest Gran Fondos in Europe: 177 kilometers, four brutal mountain passes, 5,500 meters of elevation, and 36-degree heat.
Let’s just say… it pushed me beyond my limits.
But somewhere between the cramping, the heat, and the mental battles, something clicked.
This ride? It wasn’t just about endurance. It was a mirror for entrepreneurship.
Because the struggles I met on that mountain are the same ones I face in business – and I know I’m not alone in that.
In this episode, I’m sharing 6 powerful lessons I brought home from the French Alps – straight into how I run my business, and how I mentor photographers like you.
Lessons about grit, slowing down to go faster, not doing it all alone, and why taking care of yourself is the most strategic move you’ll ever make.
So whether you’re halfway up your own metaphorical mountain or just setting out on the road – this one’s for you.
Let’s dive in.
