The Mental Game of Business: Part Two
from The Fitness of Business with Leslie Boyce · host Leslie Boyce, MBA
You Trained for the Lift. But Can You Sustain It? Starting a business takes courage. But what happens after you've taken the leap?In Part 1 of this roundtable, Judy Murdoch, Lauren Schoenfeld, Vera Ilnyckyj, and I talked about the mental game of starting a business—putting yourself out there, dealing with self-doubt, and finding the courage to keep going when things don't go as planned.Now, in Part 2, we take the conversation further.As a trainer and athlete, I know that preparing for a one-rep max isn't just about building the strength to make the lift. You also have to think about recovery, energy, boundaries, and what will allow you to keep showing up for the next lift.Business is no different.Once you're in it, how do you protect your time and energy? How do you know when an investment isn't paying off? When do you need to change course? And how do you build a business that supports you instead of slowly burning you out?Lauren, Judy, and Vera get honest about the lessons they've learned along the way—from setting boundaries that protect them from their own tendencies, to reevaluating investments, seeking the right support, and recognizing that entrepreneurship is an ongoing personal development journey.If Part 1 was about getting your mind ready to step under the bar, Part 2 is about building a business that lets you keep lifting.If this episode resonates with you, I'd love for you to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with another entrepreneur who needs this conversation.Subscribe to The Fitness of Business for practical conversations that help you build a stronger business—without sacrificing yourself along the way.Have a “Hey Coach” question?Submit your questions to: [email protected]🔗 Stay ConnectedIf you want more conversations about business, leadership, movement, and sustainable success, you can find me here:🌐 Website: https://www.leslieboyce.com📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leslieboyce✉️ Email: [email protected]📝 Substack: https://leslieboyce.substack.comI share weekly insights, behind-the-scenes reflections, and resources for business owners who want to grow without burning out.Connect with my guests:Judy Murdoch: https://judymurdoch.substack.com/Lauren Schoenfeld: http://activecoreconsulting.comVera Ilnyckyj: createyourbestchapter.com
