Join George Couros in this inspiring solo episode of The Innovator’s Mindset podcast as he reflects on three life-changing lessons in honor of turning 50. Drawing from personal experience and a preview of his upcoming book Forward, Together, George dives into the value of collaboration, especially with trusted colleagues like Katie Martin, who help elevate and challenge his thinking.

In this reflective and motivational episode, George shares:

Why starting before you’re ready is often the best move

How understanding the temporary nature of both good and bad times builds resilience

And the crucial difference between quitting and changing direction

If you're navigating a career shift, personal challenge, or health journey, this episode offers practical wisdom and encouragement to take action, adapt when necessary, and keep moving toward what matters most.

💬 Featuring key quotes:

“Start the thing, and figure out how to do it later. When you overthink, you often under-do.”

“Bad times won’t last, and neither will the good times. Learn from both, because it’s all temporary.”

“Changing direction and quitting aren’t the same. Sometimes, we need to change our path to get where we ultimately want to go.”
