The Mind Of George Show

You’ve read the books. You’ve hired the coaches. You’ve binged the podcasts (including this one). So why do you still feel stuck?In this powerful solo episode, George Bryant calls himself out—and calls you forward. This is not a strategy dump. It’s a soul-level wake-up call to stop collecting information and start embodying what you already know.This episode dives deep into the Knowing Trap—that frustrating gap between awareness and action. George unpacks why we stay stuck even when we “know better,” the identity illusions that sabotage our growth, and how to break free with simple, embodied action. You’ll walk away with a three-part framework, reflection questions, and a challenge to move forward today—not someday.What You’ll Learn in This EpisodeWhy more knowledge isn’t the answer to your stucknessThe real cost of “almost” launching, starting, healing, or leadingA 3-step spiral that keeps entrepreneurs frozen in placeHow identity clings to the past and resists your next levelWhat it really takes to embody what you already knowKey Takeaways✔️Awareness doesn’t equal embodiment. You can know better and still not do better.✔️Avoidance is sneaky. We often gaslight ourselves by calling procrastination “processing.”✔️Action is the only way out. You must choose to do what you already know you need to do.✔️Your identity must evolve. The next version of you can’t live with the old version’s beliefs.✔️Pick one thing and do it today. Even small action shifts your perspective and builds momentum. Timestamps & Highlights[00:00] – The Real Purpose of This Episode[04:17] – When Strategy Fails: The Missing Ingredient[08:45] – Why Most People Sabotage Their Growth[12:30] – The Root Cause of Friction in Business & Life[17:50] – How to Recognize Your True Capacity[21:20] – Embodiment Over Execution[25:15] – The Permission Slip You’ve Been Waiting ForWant to stop spinning your wheels?

You can outsource your email. You can delegate your schedule.But you can’t outsource your capacity.And if you don’t expand what you can hold, your business will break you before it ever breaks through.This episode is your wake-up call if you’re doing all the right things—scaling, optimizing, hiring—but still feel like you’re about to snap. Because growth isn’t about doing more. It’s about holding more.In this solo episode, George Bryant peels back the curtain on a topic most entrepreneurs avoid: burnout. But not the kind you think. Burnout isn’t a sign you need more time or tactics—it’s a signal your capacity is maxed.George walks you through the 4 types of entrepreneurial capacity—mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical—and how each one is the real bottleneck behind your business. You’ll learn how to build capacity from the inside out so you can lead with peace, purpose, and power—without breaking under pressure.What You’ll Learn in This EpisodeThe real reason burnout happens (and why it’s not about your to-do list).Why your business will never outgrow your capacity.How to expand your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical resilience.The myth of “doing more” and the power of being more.How to conduct a personal capacity audit—and what to do with the results. Key Takeaways✔️Burnout is not a workload issue—it’s a capacity issue.✔️You can’t scale a business beyond your ability to hold what it creates.✔️The 4 buckets of capacity: Mental (clarity), Emotional (resilience), Spiritual (faith/surrender), and Physical (energy).✔️Self-honesty, boundaries, stillness, and prioritization are non-negotiable tools.✔️Growth requires becoming the person who can hold the result—not just doing more. Timestamp Highlights[00:00] – Powerful myth-busting insight about growth and the trap of “doing more.”[04:24] – The myth of more. Why more strategy, delegation, and tactics won’t grow your business if your internal capacity is capped.[08:48] – Understanding capacity. When one bucket (mental, emotional, spiritual, or physical) is over-stretched or neglected, it impacts everything.[13:06] – Spiritual capacity. George shares his personal view on faith and how spirituality forms the foundation of his capacity.[17:30] – Letting go of comfort. Why clinging to what got you here can hold you back from what’s next.[21:54] – What cravings reveal. How our internal environment influences the food, habits, and energy we gravitate toward.[26:12] – Intentional flexing. Growth is about strengthening capacity across all dimensions, not just scaling strategies.[30:36] – Protecting your priorities. Whether physical, mental, or emotional, you must safeguard the capacity that fuels your life and business. Your Challenge This Week:Audit your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical buckets.Ask: Where am I maxed out or leaking capacity?Pick ONE bucket and commit to a daily practice to expand it.Because what you build is only as strong as what you can hold.Feeling maxed out but not sure where to start?Book a free call at mindofgeorge.com and say “CAPACITY” in the message to get personalized support from George.Join The Alliance – The Relationship Beats Algorithms™ community for entrepreneurs scaling with connection.Apply for 1:1 Coaching – Ready to grow your business with sustainability, impact, and ease?
