Episode Synopsis

What do a bicep injury and building a successful trade business have in common? For me, it’s all about mindset and discipline! Join me, Patrick Somers, on this gripping episode of The Tradepreneur Show with Patrick, where I dive deep into my personal journey of recovery after a serious bicep injury that required surgery. It’s not just about healing; it’s about scaling your trade business while overcoming challenges that life throws your way. Throughout this episode, I share the raw and unfiltered truth about the hurdles I faced during my recovery. You’ll hear how I maintained my fitness routine and the mental fortitude required to push through the pain. But it doesn’t stop there! I also reveal the transformative experience of my recent 11-day water fast, exploring its incredible physical and mental benefits, such as weight loss and a much-needed metabolic reset. Patrick Somers doesn’t sugarcoat anything. He talks about tearing his bicep, the grind of an 11-day water fast, and how getting punched in the mouth – by life or the job – forces you to grow. This isn’t theory. It’s discipline, resilience, and showing up when it hurts. Patrick gets real about owning your setbacks, leading by example, and proving who you are through consistency. On the job, at home, and in your own head.Mindset is everything—whether you’re recovering from an injury or striving for tradepreneur success. I draw powerful parallels between physical recovery and overcoming business setbacks, emphasizing that the key ingredients for business success lie in taking responsibility for your choices. No more excuses! It’s time to show up and be consistent, not just for yourself, but for your family and those who look up to you.
