224: Shawn Johal — The Happy Leader
What does it take for a leader to be happy? It’s no secret that many leaders can feel tapped out when it comes to their emotional and personal growth while working strictly and solely on the business. This is why today’s guest shares how to achieve both happiness and growth!
Shawn is the co-founded DALS Lighting, an LED lighting business. He implemented the Scaling Up Growth System and it led the company to 3X its revenues into the 8-figure mark. Shawn later went on to Found Elevation, a business growth coaching and consulting firm. He is a big believer in the ‘Happiness Roadmap,’ where he teaches his clients how to achieve both happiness and success.
Shawn has been an entrepreneur for 11 years and was the Former President of EO in Montreal. In the group, he would often hear some common words, ‘stressed out,’ ‘no balance,’ ‘overwhelmed,’ etc. Why are entrepreneurs so unhappy during their business journey?
The first step is to actually take a huge step back and do a bit of introspection on what’s going wrong. Get ahold of your emotions and feelings and do a check-in on your stress levels. If you’re not happy, then craft a plan to shift things up. It is possible.
