Money mindset is a hot topic for entrepreneurs and is one of the most difficult areas in life to master. If you are avoiding all thoughts of money, you may find yourself in a financial crisis before you even realize what has happened. On the other hand, if your only focus is on making more money, you may end up making reckless decisions in the pursuit of profit. Neither of these scenarios is ideal for entrepreneurs.That’s why I brought on Brie Sodano, founder of Sheep To Shark,  and a dear friend of mine to help you stop bleeding your cash so you can start stacking it. Brie started her career as a financial advisor for Edward Jones, one of the largest and most successful investment firms in America, and went on to  create her own financial planning firm to help women succeed financially by overcoming barriers they encounter in life with money. Today’s podcast will challenge your relationship with money so you can learn to manage your money and capitalize cash flow inside your business.  Inside This Episode You’ll Discover :How to create a sexy budget to protect yourself as an entrepreneurHow to stop building a business with free laborWHy your revenue does not drive your lifestyleHow to manage scarcity around moneyHow to capitalize cash flow and money inside your business Connect With Brie On Her Website Connect With Brie On Instagram  Relatable Episode How Self-Love Will LEad To Success With Peter King Time Stamps & Notable Quotes 06:27 - The advice on money out there today is not psychologically  congruent with the way that humans behave.

Whether you realize it or not, perfectionism is the enemy of greatness. To have a standard of perfection, is like having no standard at all. That’s why I go out of my way to prioritize relationships over algorithms while prioritizing humanity over everything.  And today’s episode is no different. I brought on my good friend, Brad Weimert to chat about how deep relationships are built in unique situations. I met Brad at a coffee shop, and he's the only man on planet earth that can pull off a Mohawk better than me. Brad climbed twice the distance of Mount Everest and developed his entrepreneurial and marketing spirit from rich life experiences. He believes that every accomplishment in his life can be traced back to the depth of a single relationship – or several. He is the founder of Easy Pay Direct; a payment gateway that has since been touted as the most critical tool on the market to facilitate high-level eCommerce with over 60,000 merchants. Today’s episode  is loaded with nuggets and your friends are gonna think you're a genius for sharing this wisdom and implementing it with them.So make sure you share the podcast with others and tag itsgeorgebryant  and Brad on Instagram Inside today’s episode you’ll discover:How to design your life and business with intentionTwo critical components of a successful relationshipHow being uncomfortable leads to incredible opportunities later on in lifeWhy perfectionism is the enemy of successHow rich experiences in life help you cultivate a winning mindsetLearn more about Brad Weimert On His Website Relatable episode - Becoming Resilient W/Adam Markel Notable Time Stamps and Quotes 02:48 Every accomplishment in my life can be traced back to the depth of a single relationship – or several.- Brad Weimert ​​06:57 There are two major elements to figuring out whether or not you are going to connect with somebody quickly. ​​Unique experiences and emotional engagement.

You are never one strategy or tactic away from success. Yup. I said it. This podcast was inspired by a recent quote I found about how great coaches change mindsets and lives not to give tactics and strategies. I think it's important to talk about because so many entrepreneurs get tricked into believing that one funnel or tactic will be their next big ticket to success until they are out 20K after not yielding any results.  Listen in as I cover some important aspects of why it’s important to find your path and trust that you are the only one who has the answers to the freedoms you seek. Inside this episode, you’ll discover Why chasing more strategies and tactics won’t scale your businessHow your thoughts attract the results you have inside your life and businessWhat Mike Tyson can teach you about successWhy you need to stop consuming more content and follow fewer people to get better resultsLike this episode, here is another relatable episode Your greatest gift to the world Time Stamps & Notable Quotes 01:19 The best coaches don't give you strategies and tactics, they change your mindset- Unknown02:47 There are two reasons why someone else’s strategies and tactics  won’t work for you. Number 1, other coaches are fucking lying to you. And number 2, they will not work for you because it’s not yours.

If they are not changing the way you think, unfollow them and align yourself with the people who hold you to your highest potential- George Bryant 10:01 This is a long game.

Scaling a business to 7-figures is the one of scariest things to do in life. It will stretch you thin and challenge your identity. I know so many entrepreneurs who feel trapped inside their business while trying to make it to 7-figures. But those entrepreneurs who do make it to the million dollar mark don’t feel trapped. They understand how important it is to have clarity in their lighthouse. They value relationships and time more than money. They lead with curiosity,  and they trust themselves enough to take action even if the path doesn’t make sense at times. That’s why I asked Brandon Horoho to come on the show.
