Borrowed Time, host Janine Lang sits down with Keith Engelhardt to explore strategies for creating a sustainable and meaningful entrepreneurial journey. Keith shares valuable insights on aligning personal values with business success while maintaining wellbeing and financial stability.

Key Takeaways:

Finding Your North Star
Keith emphasizes the importance of identifying what you “cannot not do” daily – that core passion that drives you. He advocates for building your business around this passion to ensure both meaning and sustainability. Rather than forcing yourself into predetermined models, he recommends creating a “blank canvas” in your business that authentically aligns with your core values and principles, helping avoid unintended consequences down the road.

The Power of Self-Care in Business
Drawing from personal experience, Keith discusses how practices like hatha yoga and meditation aren’t just wellness trends but essential tools for entrepreneurs. He highlights specific benefits including stress release, increased bone density, and building resilience through breath work. His message is clear: taking regular breaks and prioritizing self-care isn’t selfish – it’s strategic for preventing burnout and maintaining the energy needed for long-term productivity.

Building Financial and Social Capital
Keith stresses the importance of establishing a financial safety net before diving into entrepreneurship, noting how irregular income can be a major source of stress. He shares his “33% rule” for time allocation: spend a third of your time with peers, a third mentoring others, and a third learning from people at least 10 years ahead in their journey. This balanced approach ensures continuous growth and meaningful connections.

Mindful Living in a Connected World
In his final insights, Keith advocates for what he calls the “three D’s to avoid”: debt, drama, and dumb people – all of which can derail your financial foundation and peace of mind. He encourages listeners to practice mindfulness and focus on the present moment, finding intentional living and peace despite the constant connectivity pressures of modern technology.

Throughout the conversation, Keith’s approach combines practical business strategy with holistic wellbeing, offering a refreshing perspective on how to build not just a successful business, but a fulfilling life.
