About the show

Most of us want to lead in a way that matters; to lift others up and build something people want to be part of. But too often, we’re socialized (explicitly or not) to lead a certain way: play it safe, stick to what’s proven, and avoid the questions that really need asking. This podcast is about the people and ideas changing that story. We call them fearless thinkers. Our guests are boundary-pushers, system challengers, and curious minds who look at today’s challenges and ask, “What if there is a better way?” If that’s the energy you’re looking for, you’ve come to the right place.
