  • Entrepreneurial Leadership: Change, Evolution & Growth
    Apr 23 2026
    If it's one thing I've learned in my journey as an entrepreneur, it's that "certainty yields comfort, but uncertainty yields opportunity." That being said, I only realized it when I audited my personal and professional journey over a longer period of time. Ceilings of complexity and inflections points are more predictive than you might think. Join me on this episode as I discuss intentional change of stages in our lives and share some advice on what to look for. Got questions? I've got answers!

    Apr 16 2026
    Have I lost my mind?! Or is the business SO BAD that I have no possible outcomes for the year?! Not exactly... In this episode, I'll give you a LOT to think about in terms of "Being & Doing" goals that are much more subjective than objective in nature - and they're a great application for every entrepreneur! Got questions? I've got answers! You can reach me directly at: Perrin@TheNextLevelExecutive.com You can find out more about me and the Next Level Executive program at: www.TheNextLevelExecutive.com
