What if your leadership style could become your greatest legacy? In this episode, I sit down with leadership expert and keynote speaker Jim Knight to talk about what it really takes to build culture, develop rockstar teams, and lead with passion. Jim shares how he went from Gatorland and Olive Garden to training at Hard Rock Café and speaking on stages around the world. I also talk about what it looked like to show up on stage while navigating one of the hardest moments of my life, how I managed to cancel high-profile meetings, honor my son’s grief, and still deliver a high-stakes keynote that same week. Plus, I also answer your DMs about fast business pivots, launching with confidence, and MORE.
