What does it really take to break free from the “golden handcuffs” of entrepreneurship?
In this episode of Campus Chronicles, Sean Knutson from Warrior Mindset Strategies joins me. Sean’s journey started at 24 when he launched his first business, but what seemed like a rapid success soon turned into overwhelming stress and burnout. He shares how he realised that without the right systems in place, success can feel like a trap.
From running multiple businesses to serving on a federal SWAT team, Sean opens up about his path of resilience, leadership, and self-discovery. We explore key lessons like the power of mentorship, overcoming ageism, and how to align your career with your personal values. Sean also shares his approach to leadership—building trust and collaboration without coercion.
