In this deeply reflective and irreverently honest episode of The Mindful CEO, Aaron and Chris blow up traditional ideas about masterminds. Rather than treating the mastermind as a scheduled meeting or a program you attend, they argue it's a noun—a way of thinking, a level of consciousness, and a container you become. From hilarious riffs on hustle culture to deep insights about belonging, resonance, and growth, this conversation invites listeners to stop chasing external solutions and start creating from a more expanded inner state. If you've ever felt burned out by business advice or bored in a breakout room, this one’s for you.
