What if the only thing standing between you and the life you want… is your willingness to step into the arena?

Gordon McAlpine has built and sold two businesses, mentored some of the brightest rising stars, written a best-selling book, and even given away his fortune on UK’s Secret Millionaire. But here’s what really makes him stand out—his ability to strip away the noise and get to the truth about what creates success.

🎧 In this episode, we dive into:

• The one thing that separates those who scale their dreams from those who stall
• Why most people misunderstand passion (and how it’s not what you think)
• How obsession can kill what you love—and what to do instead
• The power of grit and why success isn’t about avoiding hard things
• A simple question that can change everything when you're feeling stuck

This isn’t about motivational fluff. It’s about real, lived experience from someone who’s been in the trenches and come out the other side. If you’ve ever felt like you should know what you’re passionate about, or if you’re hesitating to take the next step—this one’s for you.

Final thought: Inspiration is perishable. Just. F*ing. Do it.**
