Escaping Frustration: How to Change Your Life and Business – Trevor Mauch
Are you constantly overwhelmed by your workload or feel like your business is controlling your life? Then this episode is for you! Trevor Mauch, Founder of Carrot, a lead generation system for Real Estate investors and agents, explores the challenges entrepreneurs, particularly dentists and business owners, face when trying to break free from the overwhelming demands of their work.
Trevor walks us through a framework for understanding transformation, how success often leads to complacency or “default mode,” which, if left unchecked, leads to frustration, drift, and ultimately failure. His “Four Paths” model helps individuals assess where they currently stand and how to move towards greater fulfillment. His approach includes setting non-negotiable personal goals, making preemptive decisions about time and energy management, and ensuring business ownership enhances rather than consumes your life.

P.S. Whenever you’re ready, here are some other ways I can help fast track you to your Freedom goal (you’re closer than you think) :
In this episode, we finish up the second part of my interview with Rob Swanson and his eight rules of investing. (If you haven’t listened to part 1, be sure to go back and give that a listen before jumping into this one.) Today, we pick up where we left off, covering rules four through eight and talking about everything from decision-making to cash flow and risk reduction.
Listen in as Rob shares his incredible insight and experience in real estate and investing to give us a few rules that help make our decisions and investments more solid. You will hear about the importance of looking at margins before buying and what boxes need to be checked when it comes to predicting a solid income stream. Rob also discusses how to define and mitigate the different risks involved so that you can come out on top.
Alastair MacDonald is a private advisor to established entrepreneurs, investors, and business owners, as well as a TEDx speaker who lectures on economic, social, and financial forecasts. Join me today to hear part two of our conversation at the Freedom Founders Mastermind, where we dive into the concept of certainty, how to hedge against a volatile economy, and why the abdication model is no longer one that works.
Listen in to learn the reasons why Alastair is not worried about consumer price inflation (and what he’s really worried about instead) and why the 401(k) is not always the investment that it is made out to be. You’ll learn why he is most concerned about the issue of division and polarity in the Western world, why your business is your best asset in a volatile economy, and how you can maintain its viability to weather the most intense economic storm.
