The Courageous CEO: 5 Traits That Move the Needle & Set You Apart as a Leader (Part 1)

The bigger your business grows, the more discomfort you’ll have to handle. In this episode, I break down what it truly means to be a courageous CEO and why your emotional capacity determines the size of your results. I talk about how to lead through uncertainty without losing momentum. I also share Gary Vee’s take on what separates a $700K business from a $10M one and how courage, not confidence, is the bridge between the two. Get ready to expand your capacity for discomfort, master your mindset, and lead with resilience through every season of growth.
