Serial Entrepreneur & Investor Tim Calise: Mindset and Habits for Entrepreneurial Resilience

Ever grappled with the relentless stress of entrepreneurship? What if there were simple habits and mindsets that could transform your journey to success? This episode, featuring serial entrepreneur Tim Calise, dives head-first into these crucial questions. Tim’s function as the “strong #2 man” behind multiple CEOs has pushed businesses and entrepreneurs to build products, operational systems, and financial systems to increase sales and create lasting enterprise value for over 20 years. We discuss the powerful practice of journaling to manage open loops and low-level anxiety, and Tim's techniques of being fully present in both his business and personal life. We delve into the science behind our repetitive and negative thoughts and how understanding this can help us cope better. We then shift gears to share personal experiences and struggles with balancing work and family life, cherishing moments with loved ones, and setting boundaries with an “intention document.”  The Standard Podcast aims to change how the world navigates mental health.
