The Power of No(vember)

What if your biggest breakthrough wasn’t about what you do… but what you stop doing? In this raw and soul-baring solo episode, George challenges the cultural obsession with 90-day plans, massive to-do lists, and “doing more.” Instead, he offers something radically simple — and potentially life-changing: the power of saying no. No to overwhelm. No to hustle. No to what no longer serves you. This isn’t about restriction — it’s about reclaiming your freedom. What You’ll Learn in This Episode:Why “no” is more powerful than any new strategyHow overcommitment fuels burnout and self-sabotageHow to practice saying no from a place of freedom, not shameThe ripple effect of honoring your future selfWhy clarity beats complexity in building a sustainable life and business   Key Takeaways: ✔️Saying no isn’t restriction — it’s liberation. ✔️Every yes to the wrong thing is a no to the right one. ✔️Micro-no’s build macro-momentum. ✔️You don’t need a 90-day plan.
