Welcome back to The Mastermind Effect. For today, we’ve got Janis Pettit, Founder of 10x Zone and Thrive Mastermind. Before starting her business, she worked as an actor on and off Broadway and in TV, even hosting her own cable talk show in New York. She learned firsthand the dramatic results that can occur from overcoming your reticence to step into the spotlight and stand out.

In this episode, we get into the “group mentality” of what makes Masterminds so powerful. Janis talks about how our business problems are really well disguised as “personal problems”, and why you need to be comfortable with getting uncomfortable. If you’re in the corporate atmosphere and want to find a way out, this one's for you. Check it out!
