Navigating Obstacles: Geo Derice's Blueprint for Resilience and Success
?? Summer Owens
I empower youth, young adults, and those who support them to become more confident and resilient leaders of teams and their own lives.
I am so excited to share my latest S.O. What! Success Stories episode with the incredible Geo Derice, a marketing genius, author, and founder of 2020 Living and First Book Done. This episode was special because Geo has helped me in my business and we have become fast friends, and let me tell you, his story is one you don’t want to miss!
Geo opens up about his journey from personal trainer to marketing pro, sharing the obstacles he faced along the way. He talks about how he struggled to get clients early in his career and how he turned things around by being resourceful and creative—offering his time and energy when he didn’t have money. That resourcefulness led to opportunities that shaped his future, proving that sometimes, resilience is about finding a way when you don’t think one exists.
We also dive into his thoughts on eliminating excuses. Geo shares how he learned to stop doubting himself and push past the "I’m not qualified" mindset. From working in marketing without a formal business degree to building his company and coaching others to write their first books, Geo’s story is packed with lessons on the power of resilience, creativity, and self-belief.
