What happens when your dream business starts to feel like a prison?

In this powerful and raw conversation, George sits down with business coach and mentor Kate Perkovic to explore what it really means to build a soul-led business that supports your energy, values, and lifestyle. Kate shares her journey from burnout and trauma to clarity and peace—and how that inner transformation completely reshaped her business.

This episode is a must-listen for any entrepreneur who’s craving alignment, freedom, and impact—without sacrificing themselves in the process.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode
