Shadé Zahrai: The Dangerous Mindset Secretly Holding Entrepreneurs Back | Mental Wealth Series | E3
Descripción del Episodio
Your mindset is sometimes the biggest threat to your success as an entrepreneur. For Shadé Zahrai, self-doubt and imposter syndrome followed her from corporate life into entrepreneurship. She later realized these struggles were rooted in psychological patterns she calls “mind pits” and “inner critics” that quietly sabotage even the smartest entrepreneurs. By confronting them head-on, she rebuilt her confidence, took her business global, and now helps others do the same. In this episode of the Mental Wealth Series, Shadé shares how entrepreneurs can recognize the thinking traps holding them back, quiet their inner critics, and turn self-doubt into healthier self-talk.

World War II with Tom Hanks
By shows
For eighty years, the Second World War has remained the most devastating and defining conflict in human history. World War II with Tom Hanks reexamines the war through the lens of a new century. Told over twenty hours and guided by Tom Hanks, whose lifelong passion for this history has shaped some of the most profound screen portrayals of the era, the series captures the full arc of the war — from the rise of fascism in Europe to the fall of Berlin, from Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima, and the uneasy peace that follows. Each episode uncovers new dimensions of the conflict: the decisions that shaped the battlefield, the unseen networks that sustained the war effort, and the aftershocks that still shape our world today. World War II with Tom Hanks is the definitive retelling of that story for a new generation: a sweeping, deeply human portrait of how the modern world was forged in the fires of global war.
