Harnessing Your Fears for Success Pt. 2 (on The Karat Podcast) | Ep 125

Build with Leila Hormozi

“Most of people in society have a really poor relationship with work (…) They don't get a lot of positive reinforcement at work. Therefore, they want to work less.” Today, join Leila (@LeilaHormozi) as she guests on an interview with The Karat Podcast to share her journey of overcoming challenges and leveraging fear to transition from a secure job, establishing Gym Launch, to where she is today. She provides insights on the role of fear as a catalyst for change, the importance of continuous self-challenge, and the complexities of managing a portfolio of companies. This is part 2 of the interview.

Welcome to Build where we talk about the lessons I have learned in scaling big businesses, gaining millions in sales, and helping our portfolio companies do the same. Buckle up, because we’re creating an unshakeable business.
