In this episode of the Profitable Christian Business Podcast, host Doug Greathouse interviews entrepreneur and author Albert Pellissier, whose book "What’s on Your Backburner?" challenges entrepreneurs to awaken dormant desires and confront the inner conflicts holding them back from meaningful success.

Albert opens up about the intersection of faith, ambition, and laziness, and shares how God used his personal journey to help others step into their true calling. Together, Doug and Albert explore how unchecked investment bias, doom scrolling, and self-sedation habits mask our deeper purpose — and how to break free.
