KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The body and the mind share all kinds of signals. If you’re having depressing feelings, if your sleep starts to be worse, if you’re super tired even when you’ve had a good rest, these are all signs. Burnout is dangerous and can take years to recover from, so it’s super important that you check in with yourself and ask if what you’re doing is sustainable. We’re not robots. 
• Be intentional about the thing you’re creating as well as the life you’re living and how you want to feel in the process. It’s not just about building your business as big as possible, it’s about why do you want to build this business and how to do you want to feel during the journey. If you ask these questions to yourself constantly it’s really hard to derail.

BEST MOMENTS
‘It was shameful to have to step away from the business for 5 months and be a nobody. People didn’t understand, it wasn’t common to have burnout and be open and vulnerable.’
‘In 3 years I experienced the things that most entrepreneurs usually experience in 10-20 years.’
‘In business no one is really going to save you but yourself.’
‘Co-founding a business is like being married, so it’s really important that you align on values.’

ABOUT THE HOST
Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.

Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.

Why?

Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!

How?

Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
