What if your biggest breakthrough wasn’t about what you do… but what you stop doing?

In this raw and soul-baring solo episode, George challenges the cultural obsession with 90-day plans, massive to-do lists, and “doing more.” Instead, he offers something radically simple — and potentially life-changing: the power of saying no. No to overwhelm. No to hustle. No to what no longer serves you. This isn’t about restriction — it’s about reclaiming your freedom.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why “no” is more powerful than any new strategy
• How overcommitment fuels burnout and self-sabotage
• How to practice saying no from a place of freedom, not shame
• The ripple effect of honoring your future self
• Why clarity beats complexity in building a sustainable life and business
   

Key Takeaways:
✔️Saying no isn’t restriction — it’s liberation.
✔️Every yes to the wrong thing is a no to the right one.
✔️Micro-no’s build macro-momentum.
✔️You don’t need a 90-day plan. You need one powerful decision.
✔️November is the perfect practice ground for transformation.
✔️What you choose today determines what’s possible tomorrow.
