This week, Adam Roach and Jess Webber unpack leadership expert John Maxwell’s principles of “trade-offs”—the conscious choices we make to grow, change, and pursue our calling. Drawing from Maxwell’s teachings, they explore how every new level of success requires leaving something behind, distinguishing between forced change and chosen trade-offs. Through personal stories and examples from their coaching community, they illustrate how discomfort, courage, and faith in one’s calling create the environment for growth. From letting go of outdated habits (“killing your darlings”) to making trade-offs within—not away from—your true purpose, this conversation challenges listeners to embrace the tension between comfort and progress and to honor their higher calling with conviction and clarity.
