How To Overcome Limiting Beliefs Around Being A Young Leader Or Entrepreneur

Are you a young leader looking for people to respect you more?

This episode will help!

One time I was interviewing someone who wanted to work at SPS and I said: “you’re a lot older than me and you’ll report directly to me. Is that going to be a problem?"

I was terrified about my age, and whether or not people would want to listen to me or “follow” me as their leader.

My whole life I’ve been the youngest person in the room...

…almost always hiring and managing people who were older than me.

When I was younger, I thought this was a bad thing.

I thought people wouldn’t respect me or take me seriously.

When I went to events or conferences, I’d wear a suit and tie…or suspenders and a bowtie…hoping that would make people take me seriously.

Then I realized it was all in my head. 🙃

Nobody cared about how young I was. All they cared about was whether or not I could bring results, and if I genuinely cared about THEM.

That’s what I love about business. It’s a meritocracy.

It doesn’t matter your age, gender, race, religion, etc. All that matters is: do you bring value to the marketplace?

In this episode I talk about how to overcome limiting beliefs around being a young leader or entrepreneur.

It’s all the lessons I learned the hard way from always being the youngest person in the room.

Hope you find this episode helpful!
