83% of entrepreneurs consider giving up during chaotic or uncertain seasons—but what if your current breakdown is actually your breakthrough?

In this deeply personal solo episode, I read you a love letter I wrote for the entrepreneur who feels buried, uncertain, or on the verge of walking away. If you’ve ever felt like the warehouse of your life or business is overflowing with mess, confusion, or pain—this message is for you.

This isn’t just about business. It’s about identity, resilience, and choosing to believe that the pain is the path, not the end. Whether you’re in it now or you’ve been through it before, save this episode and come back to it when you need a reminder: you are not alone.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• Why chaos doesn’t mean collapse—it often signals your next level
• The two roads you can take when life and business feel overwhelming
• How to see the warehouse (your mess) as your training ground
• Why surrendering isn’t weakness—it’s the starting point of strength
• The role of faith and alignment in surviving uncertainty
• A raw, spoken letter to help you reconnect with your power

Key Takeaways
✔️This isn’t your ending—it’s your refining.
✔️You’re not being buried. You’re being planted.
✔️You’ve made it through storms before. That’s proof you can again.
✔️There are two paths: avoidance or alignment. Choose wisely.
✔️You don’t have to do this alone. But you do have to choose to keep going.
✔️Radical responsibility and surrender are not opposites—they’re allies.
✔️Your mess has meaning—if you’re willing to meet it.

What if the thing that changes your life starts with a pizza box?

In this inspiring and down-to-earth episode, I sit down with Mark McNally, founder of Filters Direct USA, DJ-turned-entrepreneur, and a true example of what it means to build with integrity. Mark shares his story of moving from Ireland to the U.S. with only $500, working his way up from an HVAC laborer to buying the company—and then launching his own direct-to-consumer air filter business from scratch (literally, with a pizza box prototype).

We talk about the heart behind mission-driven entrepreneurship, how to lead values-first teams, and why your environment (and the air you breathe) could be the most overlooked factor in your health and success.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• How Mark turned a cardboard pizza box into a physical product and a booming business
• Why values—not capital—create sustainable business growth
• How your home air quality affects your energy, focus, and overall health
• Why every business owner needs to think about their environment
• The surprising mindset shifts that helped Mark scale without losing himself
• How to build a team that solves problems instead of creating them
• Why vision, impact, and execution matter more than having all the answers

Key Takeaways
✔️You don’t need a perfect plan—you need to keep moving forward.
✔️A good team solves problems before they reach your desk.
✔️Integrity is doing what’s right when no one’s watching—including in HVAC.
✔️Stop overlooking your air quality—it affects everything from mood to focus.
✔️You’re not being buried—you’re being planted.
✔️Success is built on work ethic, humility, and vision—not hype.
✔️Change your filter. Change your air. Change your life.

94% of entrepreneurs report feeling stuck—and it’s not because they aren’t working hard. The real culprit? Over Complication.

What if the moment you’re ready to abandon your vision is the moment you’re closest to fulfilling it?

In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with my soul sister across the globe, Chantal Togany, founder of Empowered by Style and Powerhouse Collective Australia. From her first glimpse of vision at age 13 to navigating the darkest valleys of entrepreneurship during Australia’s intense lockdowns, Chantal shares her raw journey of surrender, reinvention, and alignment.

She went from being a psychology grad in corporate suits—feeling out of place and unfulfilled—to stepping into her calling as a stylist, speaker, and women’s leader building a national platform of connection. We unpack the difference between vision and mission, why alignment isn’t about perfection, and what it truly means to follow your God-given calling when the path makes no sense.

If you’re in the messy middle, on the edge of giving up, or unsure whether your dream is “realistic” enough—this episode will speak to your soul.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• The life-changing difference between mission and vision
• Why alignment is a magnetic pull—not a destination
• How to turn deep isolation into purpose, clarity, and community
• Why dark seasons are often divine redirections
• What it takes to rebuild from the ground up—when you’ve lost everything
• How to create connection as a strategy for healing, scaling, and impact

Key Takeaways
✔️Your mission may shift, but your vision is sacred.
✔️Alignment isn’t about doing things perfectly—it’s about staying connected to your truth.
✔️Setbacks aren’t roadblocks—they’re redirections that reveal your next chapter.
✔️We don’t need more volume—we need more clarity and embodiment.
✔️Entrepreneurship isn’t linear—it’s God-led hopscotch.
✔️You don’t need to be fearless—you just need to be willing.
✔️If you feel alone, it’s time to build the room you wish existed.

1:1 Coaching – Build and scale a business in full alignment with who you are

We’re drowning in noise. 91% of online content now uses aggressive, force-based marketing—and it’s not just annoying, it’s ineffective.

In this episode, I share a deeply personal reflection on what it means to lead with presence instead of pressure, why embodiment always wins over attention-seeking, and how the most trusted brands are the ones that show up consistently, calmly, and clearly.

If you’ve ever felt pressured to scream louder, be everywhere, or compete with the chaos online, this episode will give you permission—and a proven path—to show up differently.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• Why yelling (force-based marketing) actually repels the right people
• How your presence builds more trust than any tactic ever could
• The personal cost of chasing attention—and how to break free from it
• A 3-part framework for presence-based leadership
• How to become a “lighthouse brand” that attracts aligned clients
• Why trust—not attention—is the new currency of growth

Key Takeaways
✔️People don’t follow the loudest voice—they follow the one that makes them feel safest.
✔️Aggressive marketing reduces customer trust by 76%.
✔️Force reveals doubt; embodiment reveals leadership.
✔️Presence > pressure. Your consistency and energy are what create real connection.
✔️Your beliefs should speak for themselves. Show, don’t shout.
✔️You attract better clients when you stop yelling and start aligning.
✔️Lighthouse leadership is about consistency, clarity, and calm—it doesn’t need to move or yell to be effective.

[05:00] – George’s past: yelling, forcing, and learning the hard way

• Choose one area where you can dial back volume and increase consistency.
• Practice calm, embodied leadership—even when the world yells.

What if everything we’ve been taught about fitness—especially as entrepreneurs—is actually sabotaging our success?

In this energizing conversation, I sit down with Brad Kearns, former world-ranked triathlete, New York Times bestselling author, and co-author of Born to Walk, to dismantle the lies we’ve been fed about physical performance.

• The shocking science behind walking, inflammation, and brain function

87% of successful people attribute their achievements to mindset—but what if your mindset isn’t just what you believe… it’s what you say?

In this solo episode, I break down the one thing I’ve seen make or break success for myself, my clients, and some of the most influential leaders I know: language. The words you speak—internally and externally—are either building your future or reinforcing your limitations.

Whether you’re a founder, a parent, or a high performer, this episode will give you a powerful reframe for how to speak life into your goals instead of draining their energy before they even start.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• The science behind how words rewire your brain (RAS + neuroscience meets faith)
• How giving pain a voice gives it power—and how to reclaim your voice
• Why mindset shifts are rooted in language patterns, not just positive thinking
• A 3-part framework to transform your inner dialogue and external communication
• How to reframe limiting beliefs in real time
• Why your words are the seeds for tomorrow’s results—and how to plant wisely

Key Takeaways
✔️Your words shape your focus, which shapes your actions.
✔️Negative self-talk decreases problem-solving ability by 31%.
✔️Saying “I’m overwhelmed” reinforces powerlessness—reframe it to “I’m prioritizing what matters.”
✔️Giving pain a voice gives it more power—acknowledge it, but don’t amplify it.
✔️The 3-part framework:

• Catch and correct negative language.
• Speak what you want to see, not what you want to avoid.
• Surround yourself with life-giving words and voices.

✔️Your inner dialogue becomes your outer reality—speak accordingly.
✔️You wouldn’t speak to a child the way you speak to yourself—why is that okay?
