  • This episode is an honest conversation with Dr. Sascha Kowalenko, a clinical psychologist and entrepreneurial coach, who helps entrepreneurs navigate the emotional highs and lows of running a business. We explore the challenges of entrepreneurship, particularly when doubt, fear, and burnout creep in.

    Together, we break down how to navigate these emotional waves using intentionality, self-awareness, and actionable strategies, including Sascha’s N.E.S.T.S.S.S Framework (Nutrition, Exercise, Sleep, Time for self/others, Support, Cyclical awareness, and Seasons of life). It’s a heartfelt conversation about embracing humanity in the entrepreneurial journey, building resilience, and taking radical responsibility for your growth—all with compassion.

    Five Game-Changing Action StepsLead with Self-Compassion: When facing tough times, place a hand on your heart, acknowledge your feelings, and remind yourself that it’s okay to be where you are.Optimize Your Foundations: Regularly assess your N.E.S.T.S.S.S. foundation: nutrition, exercise, sleep, time, support, cycle, and seasons; and address the areas that need care. Your habits fuel resilience.Change Your State to Change Your Perspective: Movement like walking or simple breathing exercises can reset your brain, helping you respond to challenges instead of reacting to them.Audit Your Alignment: Regularly ask yourself if your life and business are aligned with your values and purpose. If not, make small adjustments to bring them back on track.Own the Driver’s Seat with Grace: Take radical responsibility for your life while giving yourself compassion for the challenges you’ve faced. Progress is built one intentional step at a time.

  • This is a rerun episode, and trust me, it’s one you’ll want to hear again.

    The holiday season can bring all kinds of emotions—joy, stress, even overwhelm—and as entrepreneurs, it’s easy to get caught in the hustle or feel the weight of year-end pressures. In this episode, I reflect on how to use the natural pause of the holidays to reset, realign, and prepare for your best year yet.

    We talk about prioritizing presence, gratitude, and clarity—not just for the New Year but starting today. Treat yourself like the MVP of your team because you are the foundation of your success. Let’s create habits and environments that truly serve you and set you up to win.

    Five Game-Changing Action Steps

    Master the Art of Pausing: Use the holidays to intentionally step back, reflect, and identify what habits and routines no longer serve you.Treat Yourself Like the Star Player: Commit to self-care and invest in your growth as if you’re the highest-paid athlete on your team.Embrace Gratitude as a Tool: Start each day by celebrating your wins, no matter how small, to foster a positive mindset and momentum.Redesign Your Environment: Use this time to clean up physical and mental spaces, creating an environment that supports your vision and goals.Set Goals with Today in Mind: Forget waiting for January 1—begin now by making decisions and commitments that align with the life you want to build.

    Follow me on Instagram @itsgeorgebryant for more reflections and strategies to crush your goals in 2025.

  • In this episode, I get real about the mindset shifts and business habits that can make or break entrepreneurial success. I dive into why personal growth and self-care aren’t just nice-to-haves—they’re the foundation of everything.

    We talk about creating space to recharge, identifying the key actions (I call them "needle movers") that drive your business forward, and protecting them like your life depends on it. This is your reminder to prioritize yourself and your focus, so you can keep building momentum and crushing your goals.

    Protect Your Momentum: Game-Changing Habits for EntrepreneursPrioritize yourself—when you’re running on empty, so is your business.Treat every action as a gift for your growth.Carve out space for clarity to find you.Identify your "needle movers" and guard them fiercely.Recognize that what got you here won’t get you there—adapt and evolve.Embrace self-care as a non-negotiable, not a luxury.Focus on your “queen bee role” to make the biggest impact.Stay consistent—small, steady actions lead to big results.

    Let’s level up together. Tune in and take these steps to protect your momentum and thrive in both life and business!

  • In this episode, Josh Jurkovich and I dig into AI’s role in business and entrepreneurship. We cover it all—from the good, the bad, to the unexpected about using AI in ways that keep authenticity and human connection front and center.

    We get into the risks of relying too much on AI, the importance of maintaining real relationships, and how AI can support us without replacing what makes us unique. You’ll hear how to use AI as a valuable assistant, not a crutch, especially when it comes to creativity, communication, and keeping things personal in business.

    Here’s what you’ll take away:

    Leverage AI for efficiency but don’t lose your critical thinking.Prioritize authenticity in your messaging—it’s what connects.Balance AI support with genuine human relationships in business.Use AI as a research assistant, not a replacement for creativity.Differentiate yourself from AI-driven communication to stand out.
