122. What Does It Mean To Be A Conscious Leader? - Mason Marquis

To learn more about Breakthrough Academy, click here: https://trybta.com/PCEP122 Today’s conversation is about Conscious Leadership.   What it is.  Why it matters.  And how to access more of it.   And we’re going to delve into this topic through the experience of Mason Marquis. Mason started his business journey early, founding his painting company Spray Tex in Dallas Fort Worth at the age of 21.  In five short years, he scaled it up from 500K to north 5MM.  An insane drive and will to win drove Mason to grow his business at an unrelenting pace.   In the midst of building sales teams, dealing with customer issues, developing production managers, and implementing scalable systems, he began to realize something many of you can relate to.   Growing for the sake of growing wasn’t sustaining him.   The need to be validated and seen as a success was no longer motivating him the way it used to.  The inherent stressors of business were beginning to pile up inside him.  Frustration was turning into outright anger.   He didn’t recognize the hardened exterior that had begun to develop.  His business, his relationships, and his sense of purpose were suffering as a result.  Leading unconsciously was beginning to cost him dearly. The reason Mason is on the show today is because I know for a fact many of you are going through this inner journey as we speak, or are about to.   And sometimes hearing about someone else’s hardship can help you sort out your own.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
