What if the secret to scaling to 100K months wasn’t more hustle—but rewiring your brain?

In this powerful episode of The Takeover, we sit down with award-winning strategist, bestselling author, and top 1% business growth coach Dawn McGruer, who’s helped over 30,000 entrepreneurs generate more than €45 million in revenue. Dawn shares how she went from burnout to building multiple seven-figure companies, and the neuroscience behind sustaining that level of performance.

We dive into:

How to regulate your nervous system to make better business decisions
Why most founders sabotage scalability before they ever start
The 1.8 percent problem…and what’s truly holding women back from seven figures
The five critical factors behind every scalable business model
How to infuse humanity back into marketing in a world obsessed with funnels
