Here’s what we learned from The Conscious Entrepreneur EP31 “How to Feel Extraordinary All the Time” with Finnian Kelly: “What is bad? It’s a story? There’s no such thing as bad or good. It’s all our perspective.” - Finnian Kelly Finnian offers a fresh perspective on achieving success with more ease and intention, challenging the traditional grind mentality. Lots of powerful topics in this convo: - Mindset Over Outcomes: Finnian explains how connecting with our breath and tapping into a universal intelligence allows us to access deeper clarity and joy. - Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs: With five core principles of intentionality, Finnian provides practical tools to let go of old stories that hold us back, making space for a more expansive, fulfilling experience. - Success Doesn’t Have to Be Hard: The path to fulfillment doesn’t have to be a struggle. Instead, we can learn to align our work with a sense of flow and ease, making the journey as rewarding as the destination.

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday afternoon at this workshop! Scale Faster by Living Your Core Values Wednesday, October 30, 4 - 6pm  Techstars office, Denver Eric Marcoullier, a well-known Colorado entrepreneur and coach, will share his experiences on how to scale a business quickly by tapping into (instead of ignoring) your personal values. This is important because so many entrepreneurs burn out along the way - and we don't want this to happen to you! If your actions aren't aligned with your core purpose and values, there's a much higher chance of your company going nowhere (and you being miserable). We have about 30 people signed up, and there are still a few spots left!
