I used to think that being needed meant I was a good leader.

If everyone came to me, relied on me, and couldn’t function without me… I took that as a sign that I was doing something right.

But over time, I realized something that completely shifted my perspective: I wasn’t leading—I was creating dependence.

In this episode, I’m sharing the truth about what it really means to lead, the hidden cost of always being the “go-to” person, and why being needed might actually be holding you—and your team—back.

If you’ve ever felt like everything falls on you, or like you can’t step away without things falling apart, this conversation is for you.
