In this episode of Going Public with Ross Mandell, Ross sits down with Jorge Perez, author of The Shut the F*ck Up Method, to break down one of the most powerful lessons in personal growth: how to stop overthinking, calm your mind, and stop letting your thoughts control your life. Jorge shares how silence, self-awareness, listening, and emotional discipline can help people overcome anxiety, negative thinking, gossip, stress, and the mental noise that keeps them stuck.
Jorge opens up about his journey from Venezuela to the United States, chasing the American dream, working in Hollywood, becoming an agent, investor, advisor, comedian, author, and multipreneur. He also shares powerful stories about mindset, grief, losing his mother, trusting the process, learning when to speak, when to listen, and why the words we speak can either create peace or create more problems.
This conversation is about mental health, personal growth, mindfulness, success, anxiety, overthinking, emotional control, spirituality, and learning how to silence your mind. Ross and Jorge explore how to stop feeding negativity, how to protect your energy, why gossip damages your life, and why sometimes the best thing you can do is simply shut the f*ck up and listen.
