The H2 Leadership Podcast Finding Your Compass: How Purpose Guides Your Leadership
Every leader faces seasons of busyness, drift, and distraction. When that happens, what helps you stay the course? Your purpose.
In this episode, Alan and Jonathan unpack why purpose acts like a compass — keeping you oriented, steady, and moving in the right direction when everything else feels chaotic. Alan shares his discipline of taking quarterly Think Days to step back, reflect, and regain clarity. You’ll hear how these rhythms not only renew his own leadership but also fuel alignment and energy for his entire team.
This conversation also dives into the Unique Design framework — the intersection of your wiring, gifting, and calling. When you discover and lead from your unique design, you stop running on fumes and start moving with focus, impact, and fulfillment.
Whether you’re leading a business, an organization, or your family, this episode will help you rediscover your compass and navigate with confidence.
