info_outlineWhy Your Business Growth Has Stalled (Hint: It’s You)
Your business isn’t growing—and the problem isn’t your strategy or the market. It’s you.
Is your business stuck? Are you working harder than ever—but not seeing results? Most entrepreneurs think the answer is more hustle, better tactics, and a bigger to-do list. But what if the real problem isn’t out there? What if it’s you?
Brad Farris has spent 20 years helping service firm owners and entrepreneurs break through growth plateaus. His insight? Your business can only grow as much as you do. And if you’re at $1M or beyond, the mindset that got you here won’t take you further.
In this episode, Brad Farris reveals why hustle stops working after $1M, what mindset shifts every entrepreneur needs to scale, and how to lead from the inside out so your team and business can thrive. If you’ve ever felt stuck, this conversation will change how you think about growth forever.
In this conversation, we explore what’s really holding you back—and how to shift:
- Why hustling harder won’t scale your business (and what will).
- The mindset shift every owner must make around $1M and beyond.
- How to focus on the top 10% and bottom 10% for maximum leverage.
- Why flow beats grind—and how to reclaim energy by eliminating drains.
- A simple process for regular reflection that unlocks clarity.
Brad also shares powerful stories about letting go of control, navigating identity shifts, and why leadership starts with self-awareness.
If you’ve ever thought, “I just need to work harder,” this episode will change the way you lead and live.

Old belief: More hustle equals more growth.
