    How to Conquer Your Fears & Find Your Purpose in Leadership and Entrepreneurship with Erin Marcus

    How to Conquer Your Fears & Find Your Purpose in Leadership and Entrepreneurship with Erin Marcus

    “There’s so much fear, and what that fear makes people say or do. What would you say or do if you weren’t afraid?”


    It is my pleasure to share this week’s episode, which is a beautifully honest and candid conversation between myself and my wonderful guest about how much leadership and entrepreneurship involves being courageous—something that can mean different things.


    For my guest this week, courage meant changing her life from the chaos of her youth to establishing a good reputation in the real world. She chose to be dependable and undeniably amazing at what she does; she chose to show up.


    At some point, she decided to leave her corporate job because she knew she was meant for something else—something that would be a great fit for her and her purpose.


    In this episode, we discuss:


    Showing up in life and how it translates to how you treat your job, career, business, or brand.


    Business mindset and ethics and how to be a great business leader.


    If you find yourself needing to transition (e.g., from corporate to entrepreneurship), how do you do it effectively?


    Mentorship—the importance of finding the right mentors in life and how this multiplies the chances of your success and finding your way to your bigger purpose.


    And so much more...

    Starting a podcast, how this led to him to meeting more people with a real sense of purpose, and how that changed his trajectory
