The Mental Habit That's Quietly Blocking Your Income Growth with Lori Harder

Worry may feel normal, but it's quietly draining your energy, confidence, and results. In this episode, Lori and I dive into why worry isn't just a habit, it's a signal. A signal that you're operating from fear instead of faith, lack instead of certainty. We talk about how worrying steals time you could be using to create solutions, how it impacts your energy in business and relationships, and why most of the things you stress about never actually happen. We also share exercises to interrupt worry in real time, including how to "play the movie to the end" and how to borrow certainty from people who've already walked the path ahead of you. Get ready to stop feeding worry and start leading your life and business with intention. HIGHLIGHTS Why worry is a sign of misplaced faith. The surprising amount of time worry steals from your life. A 10 minute exercise that exposes how unnecessary most worries are. How worry creates a lack of energy and leads to bad business decisions. The "play the movie to the end" method to dissolve fear.

How to Set the Right Sized Money Goals for 2026

Most people aren't burnt out because they're working too hard. They're burnt out because the number they're chasing has no meaning behind it.

4 Pro Pickleball Lessons That Will Make You Better at Business with Lori Harder

I spent three and a half hours taking pro pickleball lessons and walked away realizing how many of the problems people are having in business have nothing to do with talent, luck, or effort. They come down to mindset, fundamentals, and who's pushing you to show up.

Get ready to be more prepared, more disciplined, and surrounded by the right people. HIGHLIGHTS Why assuming the opportunity is coming to you changes everything. The mindset shift that makes you faster to act and win. How two men in their 70s destroyed talent with fundamentals. The pickleball lesson that changed how we think about business.

The Real Reason Your Network Feels Tapped Out (+ How To Fix It) with Lori Harder

If your online sales feel stuck, I'm willing to bet it's not your offer, it's your inputs. I see this over and over again. People say they're "tapped out," but the real problem is they've stopped putting themselves in rooms where momentum actually happens. In this episode, Lori and I break down why your next level isn't hiding behind another scroll refresh. I share how a random pickleball game turned into real business opportunities, Lori talks about how Pilates unexpectedly opened massive new marketing channels for Glōci, and we show you why your barista, gym buddy, or the person next to you could be the connection that changes everything. HIGHLIGHTS Why feeling "tapped out" usually means your network is too small. How one morning of pickleball led to powerful business connections. The costly $150k mastermind lesson we learned the hard way. Why being friendly is actually a business strategy. Why doing nothing and staying home never gets rewarded.

Should You Add Another Offer Or Just Double Down On One?

Most entrepreneurs don't add new products because it's smart. They add them because they're bored, anxious, or chasing the next dopamine hit. In this episode, I break down the reason creating more offers usually hurts your business instead of helping it. I share the three questions you must answer before adding anything new, why your flagship product deserves 80% of your focus, and how distraction is the fastest way to kill momentum. Get ready to simplify your business, refocus your energy, and scale faster than ever. HIGHLIGHTS The three questions that tell you if it's actually time to create something new. Why "the money is in the monotony" and what that means for your next 24 months. Why adding more products usually decreases your income. One question to see if your current offer can actually scale to your income goals. How boredom quietly kills high-earning businesses.
