Listen Later

Setting boundaries and knowing yourself are essential skills for entrepreneurs, especially when dealing with addictive tendencies and the pressures of running a business. In this episode, I’ll share my personal journey of deciding to stop drinking alcohol, how it impacted my life, and the role self-awareness played in helping me prioritize my health and focus. From navigating social norms to addressing the challenges of an intense personality, I’ll explain how boundaries can protect your energy and keep you aligned with your goals.

We’ll also discuss how addictive tendencies can manifest in entrepreneurship, from the drive to win to the pressure of societal expectations. I’ll reflect on how I learned to channel my energy into productive habits that support my business and personal growth. By setting boundaries around time, relationships, and distractions, I’ve been able to create a focused and fulfilling lifestyle, and I’ll share tips on how you can do the same. Whether it’s rethinking your social circle or refining your work environment, these strategies can help you stay grounded and focused on what matters most.

Finally, we’ll dive into the importance of prioritizing growth and embracing a winning mindset, while also being mindful of the insecurities that come with the entrepreneurial journey. From battling imposter syndrome to overcoming external doubts, I’ll explore how self-awareness and discipline can lead to extraordinary results. This episode is all about channeling your energy into the right things, creating boundaries that protect your success, and building a life and business you truly love.
