        <![CDATA[<p>Hosted by CEO Sean Sidders, this podcast features honest conversations with Dallas-Fort Worth founders, entrepreneurs, and executives about leadership, scaling businesses, navigating challenges, and what it really takes to build successful companies.</p><p>In this episode, Sean sits down with Shannan Crawford, a therapist, to discuss the inner world of the business owner and how the work you do on yourself directly shapes the business you build. Shannan unpacks impostor syndrome, unconscious roots, and the stories we tell ourselves as leaders, and why ignoring them might be the most expensive mistake you make.</p><p>They get how you can upgrade your operating system as an entrepreneur, toggle between your craft and your identity, wear the right hats, and what it looks like to step into your internal board meeting. Shannan also touches on self-medicating, free writing, fight or flight, and how a deep and profound sense of peace is more available than most business owners realize.</p><p>This one is less of an interview and more of a therapy session for anyone building something. If you have ever felt like a fraud, made a decision from the wrong place, or wondered if you are really cut out for this, this episode is for you.</p><p>These conversations are designed to give you practical insights into leadership, growth, and building companies that actually make an impact.</p><p>Sit back, relax, and let's take flight.</p>]]>
