Episode 5: The Courage Shift Every Leader Must Take
In Episode 5 of Barriers to Breakthrough, Dr. Don Wilkins sits down with entrepreneurial power couple Amanda and Kevion Latham to explore leadership through the lens of marriage, faith, business, and resilience. Together, they share their unique journeys into leadership—Amanda through the restaurant and beauty industry, and Kevion through athletics and financial advising—and how their early life experiences shaped their confidence, work ethic, and approach to serving others.
This episode dives deeply into the realities behind entrepreneurship, unpacking fear, financial risk, and responsibility—especially when leading with a family in mind. Kevion reflects on stepping away from corporate security to build his own financial advisory business, while Amanda shares her fearless leap into owning and scaling her skincare studio. Their stories highlight the importance of trusting God, listening to wise counsel, and leaning into discomfort as a pathway to growth.
Amanda and Kevion also discuss the lack of formal leadership training and the critical role of mentorship, consistency, and values in building strong teams. They emphasize the difference between skill and will, the need for adaptability when leading across generations, and the importance of passion, teachability, and communication in today’s workplace.
This conversation offers a refreshing perspective on leadership as both a calling and a partnership—demonstrating how vision, faith, and courage can help leaders overcome barriers and build something meaningful together.
Listeners will walk away inspired to take bold steps, embrace their leadership journey, and understand that breakthrough often comes on the other side of fear.
