  • In this episode of Luminary Leadership podcast, I focus on how true gratitude extends beyond the easy, happy moments to include the more difficult, challenging experiences that shape us. With Thanksgiving approaching, I want to share three unconventional things I'm thankful for from the past year—closed doors, seasons of suffering, and hard conversations. These aren't your typical gratitude journal entries, but they have deeply influenced my growth as a leader. I also share a story about a client who found unexpected benefits from a tough relationship with his dad. By reframing negative experiences, we can uncover valuable lessons and opportunities for growth.

    Let's dive into how these tougher moments can lead to a whole new level of clarity, possibility, and prosperity in our lives. Happy Thanksgiving!

  • In this episode of Luminary Leadership, I'm diving deep into the challenges and opportunities we face as business owners and leaders working with the next generation, especially those in Gen Z. I’ve had my fair share of experience hiring and letting go, and it's brought up some real concerns about their focus on boundaries, self-interest, and the need for immediate rewards. But it’s not all doom and gloom! I share some personal stories and insights about how we can inspire this generation to shift from a 'what's in it for me' mindset to embracing teamwork, resilience, and long-term growth. 

    Let's talk about how we can guide them to be different and stand out in the best way possible. Tune in and let's get into this important conversation!

  • In this episode of Luminary Leadership Podcast, I bring a conversation that can be uncomfortable but necessary which is the critical practice of releasing relationships, roles, and beliefs that no longer serve your trajectory towards your big next. I go into the concept of letting go of people and ideas to pave a clear path for exponential growth. Sharing personal stories and experiences, I look at the emotional and strategic aspects of parting ways with team members, advisors, and even loved ones, when their vision no longer aligns with your future endeavors.

     Let's take a courageous leap and understand how doing so can lead to a stress-free, focused, and aligned journey towards achieving our highest potential.

  • In this episode of Luminary Leadership podcast, I want to dig into an often overlooked but essential conversation about busyness and its impact on achieving our big visions as leaders, visionaries, and entrepreneurs. I discuss how the constant need to manage and maintain tasks can actually limit our potential and hinder progress towards our significant goals. Instead, strategic leaders create margins—those intentional white spaces in our days for reflection, strategizing, and creativity. 

    I'll share how we can incorporate this white space into our calendars, the profound effect it has on our growth, and practical strategies to help break free from the constant busyness trap. Get ready to learn how creating margin isn't just a luxury, but a necessity for unlocking exponential growth and ultimate success!

I'm excited to share a free resource that's designed to help you pinpoint your own leadership style and refine your abilities.
