What’s happening, what’s happening?! Welcome back to the show!

Today we’re diving into the one thing that impacts every area of your life, career, and happiness—self-leadership. Before you lead a team, a company, or a family, you’ve got to learn how to lead yourself. And let’s be honest—it’s the hardest job of all.

Joining me today is Jim Williams, and we unpack what it really means to lead yourself with clarity, humility, and discipline.

We break down:

✅ Why self-leadership is mental warfare—and worth the battle

✅ How to identify your strengths, gifts, and blind spots

✅ Why chasing money without alignment leads to burnout

✅ How to build mental, emotional, financial, and spiritual freedom

✅ The danger of staying in the wrong “lane” too long

We also talk about how corporate culture and bad leadership training often push people to “fix their weaknesses” instead of developing their superpowers. The truth? You can’t lead others well if you’re not first grounded in who you are and what you’re meant to do.

🔥 CHALLENGE: Ask yourself: In what area of your life are you not leading yourself well right now? Get brutally honest. Then take ONE step to change it. If today’s episode brought you value, do me a favor—Like, Subscribe, and Share this with someone who needs to hear it!

What’s happening, what’s happening?! Welcome back to the show!

Today’s episode hits home for every entrepreneur, leader, and high performer—what you avoid owns you. Whether it’s a tough conversation, a business decision, or a personal commitment, the things you put off don’t just disappear… they quietly take control of your mindset, your energy, and your results.

Joining me today is Eric Guy, and we dig into:

✅ Why avoidance creates invisible prisons—not freedom

✅ How procrastination and delay lead to emotional and mental fatigue

✅ The compounding cost of avoiding small problems in business and life

✅ How facing what you’ve been putting off unlocks peace and progress

✅ Four powerful questions to help you stop avoiding and start acting

We also share personal stories of delay, regret, and breakthrough—how unfinished conversations and unresolved tension snowball into burnout, broken trust, and missed opportunities. But when you confront what’s uncomfortable, you create space for real leadership, clarity, and freedom.

🔥 CHALLENGE: Pick ONE thing you’ve been avoiding and handle it in the next 24 hours. Freedom doesn’t come from comfort—it comes from courage.
