In this mind-expanding conversation, I’m joined by Phillip Jackson—entrepreneur, futurist, and co-founder of Future Commerce—for a deep dive into how culture and commerce are colliding in ways that redefine leadership.

We talk about everything from AI-driven consumer habits to the new psychology of identity-based shopping, and what it means for you as a leader in business, ministry, or the nonprofit world. Phillip also shares why leaders must embrace creativity, foresight, and humility to stay grounded and relevant.

If you're ready to future-proof your leadership and build something that lasts, this episode is your next step.
