If you don’t celebrate the small wins, the big wins never happen." Mick Hunt Let’s get real: If your leadership is weak, your business will suffer. Full stop. It won’t matter how brilliant your strategies are, how strong your marketing is, or how talented your team may be—if you’re leading from the shadows, avoiding tough conversations, or micromanaging instead of empowering, you are actively blocking your millions. In this episode, I sit down with powerhouse CEO Mick Hunt to expose the leadership gaps that are quietly keeping entrepreneurs stuck below the seven-figure mark. We’re diving deep into what it really means to step into your role as a visionary, why hustle culture is killing your business, and how to create a leadership style that inspires your team to drive the business forward instead of waiting for you to do everything. If you’re running your company like a glorified solopreneur instead of a CEO, this episode will wake you up and show you how to lead, delegate, and scale with confidence.

"If you’re stuck in the weeds, you’re not running a business—you’re running yourself into the ground." "Leadership isn’t about control. It’s about creating an environment where people want to give their best." "If you don’t know your numbers, you don’t know your business. Period." "Motivation gets people in the door. Inspiration makes them stay and thrive." Questions to Ask Yourself While Listening: Am I leading from vision, or am I just reacting to problems as they come? Where am I micromanaging when I should be empowering? Have I clearly defined my 90-day goals and the team’s role in achieving them? Do I focus more on motivating my team (money, perks) or inspiring them to grow? Am I tracking small wins along the way, or only focusing on the big picture?   Move to Millions Wisdom Questions: Book: The Power of Broke Daymond John Favorite Quote: “I fear not the man who practices 10,000 kicks one time.  I fear the man who practices one kick 10,000 times.”  Bruce Lee Tool Mick Swears By: The Power of Mentors   How to Connect with Mick Hunt: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mickunplugged Website: https://mickhuntofficial.com/ Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mickhunt/ Incredible One Enterprises, LLC is not responsible for the content and information delivered during the podcast interview by any guest.
