Welcome to another episode of Pivot Me! Today, we’re joined by Sean, a historian who weaves ancient stories into practical lessons for modern business and leadership. Sean shares how he transitioned from being a traditional historian to helping entrepreneurs navigate challenges using timeless principles.

We discuss:

  • The powerful story of Agamemnon and how it applies to goal setting and sacrifice.
  • Why small sacrifices often become institutionalized—and how to avoid them.
  • The importance of defining boundaries in business and life.
  • How ancient myths and artifacts can provide insights into modern leadership dilemmas.

Sean’s perspective will challenge the way you think about success, sacrifice, and sustainability in both your business and personal life.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Sacrifice with intention: Define what you’re willing to give up before pursuing big goals.
  2. History as a mirror: Learn from ancient stories to avoid repeating mistakes.
  3. Boundaries matter: Success doesn’t have to come at the cost of your humanity or relationships.
