Episode #5: The Mindsets & Fears That Hold Us Back & How To Handle Them

We all have mindsets & fears that hold us back and that is why this episode is all about how to deal with those.

In this episode we’ll cover:

• What the “lizard brain” is and how it impacts our thinking
• The fear of not being good enough or knowing enough
• The fear of going at it alone
• The fear of failure
• The fear that you won’t be as good as your competitors
• The fear of not being financially secure
• The fear of not having time for your family/friends/life while building your business

We all have fears but you don't have to let them hold you back
