Most leaders think their problem is strategy.

It’s not.

It’s a bottleneck.

In this episode of Pull the Chute, we talk with Rajesh Nagjee about:

✔ Why every system has a constraint
✔ Why CEOs struggle between short-term survival and long-term growth
✔ How fear and regret quietly sabotage decision-making
✔ Why “should” and “must” create pressure — but “works” creates movement
✔ And why coaching isn’t about giving answers

One of the biggest takeaways:

You don’t eliminate the past.
You park it.

Then you choose where to stand.

Leadership isn’t about complexity.

It’s about clarity.

She didn’t plan to become an entrepreneur.

She planned to pass her nurse practitioner boards.

But during COVID, battling anxiety and panic attacks, she saw something missing in the market:

No one was talking about mental health in test prep.

So she did.

Within 7 months, she built a 7-figure business.
Within 2 years, she sold it.

And then?

She faced something no one warns founders about:

The identity shift after success.

In this episode of Pull the Chute, Sarah Boes shares:

• What panic attacks taught her about leadership
• How undiagnosed OCD shaped her journey
• Why self-compassion is a performance tool
• The truth about life after an acquisition
• Why authenticity beats perfection in the AI era

One of the biggest takeaways:

You can build something incredible.
Sell it.
Grieve it.
And build again.

💬 Comment “REAL” if you believe authenticity wins long-term.
