From early lessons shaped by loss to the surprising science of fear, I explore how reframing risk can open the door to growth, clarity, and freedom. Whether you are hesitating on a bold business move or struggling to make a personal change, this conversation will help you see fear for what it is - data, not a danger sign - and use it to make choices that actually move you forward. Here are the highlights: How loss taught me the value of bold decisions (01:16) The surprising science of fear and risk (04:40) The hidden cost of standing still (08:50) Turning fear into a tool for smarter action (12:20) Connect with Dawn: Instagram @dawnmcgruer @dawnofanewerapodcast Facebook https://www.facebook.com/dawnamcgruer LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/businessconsort/ Web www.dawnmcgruer.com This podcast is in a...

We talked about worth, resilience, and why sometimes you have to strip it all back to find yourself again.  From writing children’s books to running retreats in Ibiza and France, Leon’s story is packed with honesty, laughter, and inspiration. Highlights: The truth behind reality TV and leaving the show (6:02) Charity work and finding deeper purpose (8:28) The shift from material things to self-worth (13:22) What’s next: books, retreats, and big dreams (17:56) Advice for women ready to make a change (21:57) Connect with Leanne HERE Connect with Dawn: Instagram @dawnmcgruer @dawnofanewerapodcast Facebook https://www.facebook.com/dawnamcgruer ...

Susie shared how she pivoted from a fast-paced airline career to staging homes, trusting her instincts and following the signs along the way.  She opened up about juggling family life, building two businesses with her husband, and the role that mindset, mentorship, and a little bit of faith played in their success. What really stuck with me was Susie’s reminder that asking for help and sharing your vision can open unexpected doors - sometimes literally leading to six-figure investments. If you’ve ever wondered how to grow a business with heart, manage high-stakes clients, or sell your company with confidence, Susie’s insights are gold. I hope you love this conversation as much as I did. Here are the highlights: Starting a Career in the Airli...

Highlights: (00:52) Scaling isn’t hustle. It’s smarter structure. (03:09) You’re not a CEO if you sell time. (06:14) Big income doesn’t need a big audience. (08:49) Positioning beats posting. Every. Single. Time. (11:06) Doing it alone? That’s the costly route. (13:23) Want 100k months? Start thinking like one.
