Show Notes

In this candid, insight-packed segment of "Your New Business Journey" on Passage to Profit Show, seasoned entrepreneurs and experts open up about the early mistakes and tough decisions that ultimately fueled their growth. From misreading the market and choosing the wrong partners, to trying to do everything alone and delaying the help that truly mattered, the panel shares real-world lessons on pivoting, building the right team, investing in coaching, and getting comfortable with discomfort. It’s an honest conversation about how missteps, when handled right, can become the very catalysts that move a business — and its founder — forward.

Richard Gearhart and Elizabeth Gearhart, co-hosts of Passage to Profit Show have this discussion with Dr. Danielle Dick from Thrive Genetics and Rutgers University Addiction Research Center, Neil Senturia from AskTuring.ai and financial advisor Alan Porter from Strategic Wealth Strategies.
