About this listen
In this solo episode of Build Boldly, host Pat Rodgers opens up about the often-unspoken side of entrepreneurship and leadership, the toll it takes on mental health. From crippling anxiety and imposter syndrome to personal trauma and the relentless pressure of meeting payroll, Pat shares his own journey of pushing too hard, bottling up grief, and ultimately learning why high performers can’t succeed alone.
Through candid reflections, he unpacks how unchecked expectations and hidden struggles can cloud judgment, stall growth, and erode relationships. More importantly, he shares why talking, sharing, and building a support system is not a weakness but a strength, and the key to unlocking your next level.
If you’re an entrepreneur, leader, or operator carrying heavy responsibilities, this episode is a reminder that mental health is a team sport, and caring for yourself is the foundation for building boldly.
