In this episode, I sit down for an interview with my good friend Owen Fitzpatrick for an in-depth conversation about leadership, personal growth, and some of the most important lessons I’ve learned throughout my life. We cover a wide range of topics, from the challenges of today’s polarized world to the importance of curiosity in leadership.

I also share some personal stories, including how my relationship with my son, who has Asperger’s Syndrome, was transformed through something I call the law of positive intent. We talk about how this concept—believing that others are doing the best they can with the resources they have—has changed the way I approach both my personal and professional life.

We dive into:

How strong opinions and polarization are impacting the world today.
Why curiosity is such a critical trait for great leaders.
How positive intent can help you improve your relationships at work and home.
My thoughts on aging, finding purpose, and dealing with mortality.
The ups and downs of parenting and how I’ve grown through my own mistakes.

This episode is packed with stories and reflections on the lessons that have shaped me. I hope it offers you some useful insights and maybe even inspires you to live a more intentional, fulfilled life.
