This week’s podcast is my 16-minute view on why “𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐈𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐚 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭!” ⬅️

If you’re leading a team, you need to know what leadership actually means.

👉 Second, make sure you have the right team for the culture you’re building. Define your core values—and live by them. Hold your people accountable. You can’t please everyone, and you’re not serving ice cream, so focus on pushing for excellence and ensuring they deliver on expectations.

👉 Third, when someone leaves, don’t panic. Your business was here before them, and it will be here after. You got this. Overthinking worst-case scenarios won’t fix anything. Stop the “what if” spiral and start putting plans behind your questions instead.

💡 The weight of leadership is heavy—but you are not alone. That’s why I started this podcast: to remind leaders that there’s support, there’s wisdom, and there’s community.

And remember—indecision is dangerous. Don’t be the squirrel caught in the middle of the road, hesitating while the car is coming. Make a decision, trust your instincts, and move forward.

At The Impact of Leadership, we believe nobody drifts into excellence, and you are supported and loved by many.

My leadership knowledge comes from 24 years of working in a family business.
