How many business books are currently sitting on your nightstand gathering dust?

For a 1099 entrepreneur, time is your most precious non-renewable resource. Every hour spent wading through a 300-page book is an hour you aren’t billing or building. In this trailer for The Mentally Awake Podcast, host Heather introduces a way to get the talent-growth of 15,000 pages of wisdom in just 20 minutes a week.

We take the essential titles you know you should read—like Atomic Habits and Profit First—and filter them through the Mentally Awake 1099 Operating System. We don't just give you cliff notes; we give you a tactical "software update" for your business engine.

In this promo, you’ll discover:

• • The Information Overload Fix: How to stop consuming and start implementing.
  • The 5 Pillars Filter: How we categorize every book through Direction, Resilience, Resources, Organization, and Community.
  • The 20-Minute Commute Strategy: Gain the wisdom of a library while you're driving to a client meeting or hitting the gym.

🚀 STOP THE OVERLOAD. START THE IMPLEMENTATION.

Why does one 1099 entrepreneur scale quickly to six figures while another with the same talent stays stuck?

The difference isn’t just working harder—it’s the Unfair Advantage of a business management system. Most solo professionals spend their energy fighting chaos instead of building momentum.

Featuring the expertise of project management veteran Mark Sharman, we help you master the 5 Pillars of Effectiveness so you can add digits to your income by moving off the treadmill and into a strategic flow.

In this promo, you’ll hear about:

• The Talent Trap: Why talent alone isn’t enough to reach six figures.

Are you running your business, or is it running you?

Most solo professionals, agents, and independent contractors spend their lives on an "invisible treadmill"—working harder than ever but feeling stuck in a loop of feast-or-famine anxiety. In this trailer for The Mentally Awake Podcast, host Heather introduces a tactical "software update" for the self-employed life.

We don’t do generic business advice. We build a high-performance operating system designed to help you stop living on autopilot and start building a business that is intentional, resilient, and profitable.

In this trailer, you’ll discover:

• The 1099 Dilemma: Why "eating what you kill" leads to burnout without the right chassis.
• The Archetypes: Are you a "Filing Guy" (stuck in systems) or a "Carnie" (drowning in chaos)?
• The Five Pillars: How we filter the world’s best business books through Direction, Resilience, Resources, Organization, and Community.
• The 20-Minute Engine: Tactical strategy delivered in the time you actually have.

It’s time to stop surviving and start being. The journey to your first $100k year and beyond begins with a single shift in perspective.
