In this episode, Mark and Nick break down the real reason business owners lose momentum and reveal a game-changing mindset shift that will change how you show up.
Forget the tired old “fake it till you make it” mantra. Success isn’t about pretending. It’s about strategic action, clarity, and trust.
They dive into the lessons learned from SAS Australia's Ant Middleton, talk about why delegation is the secret to reclaiming your time, and discuss how small, consistent actions will get you further than any overnight success hack ever will.
Whether you’re overwhelmed by all the things you think you should be doing or just need a reset, this episode will give you tangible, practical steps to regain control, build belief, and start moving toward real freedom in your business.
Remember, you don’t need to have it all figured out. Just take the next right step. Stop overthinking, trust yourself, and watch how quickly momentum builds.
