Summary
In today’s episode, I share why leaders build cultures, not just companies. I break down the values that shaped my life, from gratitude and forgiveness to accountability and effective communication, and explain why great leaders must be honest, repetitive, and even a little annoying. I reflect on losing everything, including my mom’s home, and how that pain became protection, promotion, love, and a lesson. I also share the daily practices that keep culture alive, including knowing what I want, who I can help, how I spend my time, what matters now, and why I am doing it.
