In today's podcast Sam has “The Biz Doctor,” founder and CEO of Golden Key Partnership, Lauren Goldstein on for a juicy conversation on the importance of mental health for entrepreneurs and business leaders.  Topics Include: Mental health is crucial for business success. Isolation can be a significant challenge for leaders. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. It's okay to quit if you've given it your all. Building a business should align with your life, not the other way around. Consistency is key to long-term success. Relationships in business should not be transactional. You can't take client feedback personally. Hiring the right people is essential for growth. Finding your internal magic is vital for fulfillment. Many entrepreneurs struggle with the fear of letting go, which can hinder their business growth. Understanding the type of business you want is crucial for long-term success. Aligning business goals with personal values leads to a more fulfilling entrepreneurial journey. Self-awareness is key to understanding how to operate effectively in business. Mental health is significantly impacted by sleep, connection, and purpose. Finding joy in work can be achieved by focusing on the 20% of tasks you love. It's important to have hobbies and prioritize fun outside of work. Hiring should focus on the DNA of a person rather than just their experience. You can still be successful even if you don't love every aspect of your job. Breaking the habit of being yourself can lead to authentic living.

There's a geography of limitation that exists not on any map, but in the quiet territories of our own making. Stories that whisper: this is as far as you'll go. Today, we are talking with Mary Marantz - a woman who understands that our beginnings are not our boundaries. Growing up in a single-wide trailer on the tippy top of Fenwick Mountain, she learned something profound: that grace isn't about erasing your history, but making peace with it. Imagine a young girl watching the world from that precipice, learning that survival isn't just about enduring, but reimagining. Mary's journey from that trailer to Yale Law School isn't a bootstrapping narrative of triumph, but a meditation on grace, on the way unexpected paths unfold when we listen carefully to the whispers of our own potential. How do we create space between who we were told we could be and who we are actually called to become? How do we recognize that the most revolutionary act might be showing up, day after day, for the work that won't let go of us? Mary writes about fear like an old friend - not something to vanquish, but to understand. She knows that the stories we tell ourselves are powerful, that they can either keep us small or become the very ground from which we grow. So join us as we walk through those stories together - not as a roadmap, but as an invitation. Here's my conversation with Mary Marantz.Mary Marantz is the bestselling author of Dirt and Underestimated, as well as the host of the popular podcast The Mary Marantz Show.

Ever find yourself desperate to label a moment—good or bad, success or failure, right or wrong—just to feel a little more in control?This episode will challenge that instinct.We're unpacking one of the most powerful mindset shifts I've ever come across—rooted in ancient wisdom, backed by modern psychology, and grounded in something we all face: uncertainty.You'll hear how a simple phrase—“Maybe, maybe not. We'll see.”—can rewire your response to the unknown, help you ride the waves of change with more peace, and keep you anchored when life feels like a lot.We're also diving into a surprisingly effective gratitude boost (hint: it's not a list) and a 3-step reflection to help you find clarity when the future feels foggy.This isn't about toxic positivity.It's about perspective, presence, and progress—even when the path ahead isn't clear.Let's stop labeling and start living.Because maybe… just maybe… this moment is leading somewhere beautiful.BTW—You can choose your adventure with this one—read the article, listen to the episode, or explore both.
