Episode 405: Thinking Time - Lean In

In this episode of Above the Business, Bradley shares a powerful lesson on “leaning in” to challenges, drawing from an experience of his first ski trip. Just as he had to learn to lean into the slopes, entrepreneurs are often faced with moments when their first instinct is to pull back from financial, team, or operational challenges. Bradley emphasizes the importance of confronting these issues directly and introduces practical ways to "lean in" instead of avoiding problems that only grow if left unattended. This episode offers valuable insights for business owners on how to build resilience, make thoughtful decisions, and seek support when needed.

Listen in to discover strategies for tackling tough situations head-on and learn about the mindset shifts that can help you lead your business with confidence.
