Business is Good with Chris Cooper

Podcast Summary: Just Do It

Over the last six months, I’ve worked with five different business coaches to simplify my company and refocus on what matters.

I’ve talked to experts, mapped out plans, brainstormed strategies—until yesterday, when executive coach Dennis McIntee said something that stopped me cold:

“You already know what to do. You just have to do it.”

In this episode of BusinessIsGood, I unpack the hard truth:

👉 Knowing what to do isn’t enough.

👉 Learning and planning can become avoidance strategies.

👉 Change only happens when you act.

You’ll learn:

•

The opportunity is there—but only you can act on it.
