I almost quit this podcast.

When I first launched Māori Millionaire, I wasn’t getting the traction, engagement or impact I thought I “should” be getting. The downloads felt slow. The growth felt average. And I started taking it personally.

I made the numbers mean something about me.

That I wasn’t interesting enough.

That I wasn’t impactful enough.

That maybe I just wasn’t good enough.

In this episode, I’m sharing what I learned from what I once labelled a “failing podcast” and how that mindset nearly sabotaged something that has now reached 100,000 downloads.

We talk about:

• Why you need to stop taking business results personally

• The dangerous link between self worth and performance

• How to study successful people instead of envying them
