As an entrepreneur, you must be self-motivated and driven to succeed. Unfortunately, many business owners and entrepreneurs don’t know when enough is enough. They continue pushing themselves with the belief that more work equals more success. This can cause misalignment within their business as they neglect what matters most: themselves. Nick Komodina, a mindset coach and entrepreneur, believes it’s time for business owners to rethink how they lead and what they prioritize. As an entrepreneur, he has created his business model to help other business owners focus on their minds/internal needs first so they can grow successfully without burning out or becoming anxious and depressed.

Learning to be an effective but driven entrepreneur was not an easy journey for Nick. The consummate go-getter, he became the owner of a successful gym at 21. He then transitioned into the online fitness space and experienced many woes most business owners experience daily. He lost millions on failed ideas, bad investments, and get-rich-quick schemes because he didn’t like asking for help. The harder he tried to do everything on his own, the harder he failed. Over the next few years, he lost everything multiple times, battled depression, and lost clients due to a lack of leadership.

Implementing the lessons Nick learned along the way helped him create a better business strategy, and he started making strides toward success. However, lack of awareness almost cost him everything. He would hit a huge milestone, but he kept self-sabotaging because he didn’t know how to accept success once he had it. Not knowing who he truly was left him at the mercy of the first person who would give him an answer, which was invariably misleading. Nick lived that life for about ten years until he finally decided something had to change and started making adjustments in his life.

The result was a much-improved business and healthier relationships with clients and mentors. Nick’s business grew exponentially, and he organically scaled it into a 7-figure coaching company. That’s when he started public speaking and mentoring other entrepreneurs on aligning themselves so that there are no ceilings when their businesses scale. In his mentorship program, Impakt Legacy Mastermind, Nick offers coaching services for tired business owners who feel they are at their wit’s end and helps them turn their situations around. Nick has spoken on many stages and mentored thousands of entrepreneurs into living healthier, fuller lives. He’s also the host of “Headstrong,” a podcast that takes a deeper look at the internal and external mental struggles everyone faces in life. “Headstrong” is one of the top-rated entrepreneur podcasts on Apple and Spotify.

Nick’s coaching business, Impakt Legacy Mastermind, has now expanded into a powerful brand that reaches entrepreneurs globally. Its mission is to equip and empower business owners to become better leaders and scale their businesses by learning about themselves on a deeper level and discovering their true mission. Nick helps people master four pillars: body, mind, soul, and wealth. Using lessons from his own journey, Nick empowers business owners first to lead themselves and discover their highest calling and then to use that knowledge to build impactful and successful businesses. Nick’s goal is to empower more leaders, enabling them to be more peaceful and creative in how they run their businesses.
