Scott shares how the recent pandemic was a trial by fire for businesses and only those that pivoted to meet the change survived. 

Andre also talks about the fear of change and the judgment of others as mental roadblocks to showing up. As for internal change, Scott highlights that it's best to learn from others who can guide your entrepreneurial journey.

QUOTES

Scott: "When you're agent of change, when change happens to you, you're already on what's the opportunity? So right away, you're going what's the opportunity here and you're looking at how can we stay on the downside."

Scott: "The deep truth is is that when you step into, at putting yourself out there, it's like the fear that you have is judgment of others. The truth is is that there's people that want to connect with you. You have story. You have value."

Scott: "To me, that's the other part of internal change is don't try to go at it alone. It's way better with other people that have kind of gone through it a little in front of you because they can warn you of the pitfalls."
