The Therapy Trapdoor—Your Secret Weapon to Wealth & Self-Worth | 1PM: 136

Episode Summary:

Yo, what's up, everyone—Bertrand here. I know we just wrapped the Money Series, but I had to drop this bonus episode because this message is too real and too important to wait. I’m talking about a secret weapon that changed my life and helped me level up as a man, husband, father, and CEO: therapy.

In this raw conversation, I share how therapy (twice a week!) has helped me:

• Separate personal pain from business pressure

• Overcome people-pleasing

• Charge what I’m worth

• Stop undervaluing the knowledge I’ve bled for

• And most importantly—become a better version of myself

Whether you're drowning in debt, trying to lead a business, or just trying to lead yourself—you need a mirror. And that mirror is therapy. I'm not talking fluffy feel-good sessions. I'm talking real accountability, deep introspection, and honest work.

Real Gems Inside:

• Why CEOs and high-performers should do therapy twice a week

• How my self-worth issues kept me from charging for my value

• The truth about free game vs. paid coaching

• How to structure therapy: personal vs. business focus

• Where to find a therapist TODAY (PsychologyToday, insurance or cash-based options)

My Final Word:

Therapy isn’t weakness—it’s emotional armor.
Don’t let pride, ego, or culture keep you stuck.
You’re already a CEO—now it’s time to become a better one.
