About Go First With Jaime Taets
From the publisher's feed
Hosted by CEO, leadership expert, keynote speaker and author Jaime Taets, Go First explores what happens when successful people stop waiting for certainty and start moving before they feel…
ready.
Through honest conversations with CEOs, founders, entrepreneurs, athletes and high-performing leaders — along with Jaime's solo insights — the show goes behind the highlight reel to explore the decisions, fears, failures and transformations that shape successful people.
Episodes explore leadership development, personal growth, resilience, burnout, decision-making, vulnerability, organizational change, energy, purpose and what it takes to create meaningful change in your work and life.
Because clarity doesn't always come before action. Sometimes you have to Go First.
If you're navigating a career transition, leading through change, questioning what success means now, facing a difficult decision or simply know there's another version of yourself waiting on the other side of action, this podcast is for you.
Go First with Jaime Taets gives leaders practical insights, honest stories and the courage to take the next meaningful step.
Why leaders keep hitting play:
1. It names the fear you're not supposed to admit. Waiting to feel ready is often just waiting. If you're a leader stuck at the edge of a decision, hoping for more certainty before you move, this show gives you permission and a push to go first anyway.
2. It's tactical, not just inspirational. Every episode delivers frameworks you can use immediately - how to separate the fear you should listen to from the fear that's just noise, how to make a decision without full information, how to build the kind of energy management that makes moving first sustainable instead of reckless.
3. The guests have actually gone first. This isn't theory from consultants who've never made the call under pressure. Listeners have heard from a crisis-communications founder who rebuilt her career and her family through her son's cancer diagnosis, a Super Bowl champion who had to find purpose beyond the game that defined him, and CEOs who scaled companies while unlearning the need to have all the answers before they acted.
4. It reframes hesitation as a leadership signal, not a character flaw. Instead of glorifying certainty, Go First treats the instinct to wait as data, a signal about what you're actually afraid of losing, and what needs to change so you can move anyway.
5. It's built for the leader standing at the edge of their next decision. Whether
you're weighing a career pivot, a business bet, a hard conversation, or a change you already know you need to make, this show offers a way to move, not just a reason to keep thinking about it.
Who should listen to Go First: Executives, founders, entrepreneurs, coaches, and high-performing professionals who know what they should do next but are stuck waiting to feel ready. If you Google "how to make decisions without all the information," "overcoming fear of failure as a leader," "how to take action despite uncertainty," or "podcast for leaders who feel stuck," this is the show built for exactly that search.
What you'll actually learn: How to make high-stakes decisions before you have full information. How to tell the difference between the fear that protects you and the fear that stalls you. Practical energy management for leaders operating without a guarantee. Why the leaders who move first aren't fearless, they've just built a different relationship with fear. How clarity is a result of action, not a precondition for it.
