If you’re days away from missing payroll…(a story on strength & fear)

The Mind Of George Show

I’ve reframed resilience and have successfully turned my fear into fuel.
In this episode, I open up about fear, strength, and resilience—those defining themes we all face as entrepreneurs. I share some of my own stories, including the tough moments that almost knocked me down, and the tools I’ve used to keep moving forward. From reframing negative self-talk to celebrating small wins, this episode is all about building your mental grit and finding strength even when it feels like everything’s falling apart. If you’ve ever felt stuck or overwhelmed, this one’s for you.

I dive deep into how you can…

• Shift your perspective—it’s the key to unlocking your power.
• Reframe the negative stories holding you back.
• Build resilience by treating obstacles as opportunities.
• Practice gratitude to quiet the noise of anxiety.
• Remember, mental grit is a muscle—flex it daily.
• Celebrate your wins to build confidence and momentum.
• Embrace the fact that what you don’t change, you’re choosing.

Let’s get real about pushing past fear and finding the strength to thrive. Tune in and take action to make resilience your superpower!
