Description

<p>Omar comes in hot with a heater this episode — and it&#39;s all about stress.</p><p>Not a polished, self-help breakdown. Real talk about what it actually feels like to be a growing entrepreneur who loves the people around him, hates hurting anyone, and is trying to hold it all together while building something bigger than himself.</p><p><br></p><p>He and Jeff go deep on:</p><p><strong>Managing Stress as an Entrepreneur</strong>Why the stress of a service-based business hits differently — and how Omar and Jeff each handle the pressure of running events and a gym, respectively.</p><p><strong>Separation of Church and State</strong>When your family <em>is</em> your staff, how do you turn it off? Omar&#39;s honest about how blurry those lines have gotten — and what nearly cost him his marriage years ago.</p><p><strong>People Pleasing &amp; Leadership</strong>Omar&#39;s &quot;superpower&quot; — genuinely loving people even when he doesn&#39;t like parts of them — becomes a liability when you&#39;re leading a team and scaling fast.</p><p><strong>Adjusting the Vision</strong>What you think entrepreneurship will look like vs. what it actually becomes. Both Omar and Jeff have lived through multiple reinventions of their businesses — and they get real about that pivot.</p><p><strong>Get Out of Your Own Way</strong>ADHD + entrepreneurship = doing everything yourself. But the business can only grow as big as you allow it to — and that means learning to let go.</p><p></p>
