They're the ones who never stop learning. If you've chosen growth over coasting, and curiosity over the comfort of being the smartest person in the room, you're a learn-it-all. And this podcast is for you. Host Damon Lembi is a 3x bestselling author, CEO of Learnit, and someone who has spent 30 years watching what separates leaders who keep growing from those who quietly become the ceiling that limits everyone around them. Each episode features real conversations with top executives, founders, NYT bestselling authors, and world-class athletes — people who've faced adversity, made costly mistakes, and done the hard, unglamorous work of growing. They share what they learned — and unlearned — to lead at the next level. Great leaders aren't born or made. They're always in the making. Let's not do that work alone. Stay curious. Keep learning.

In the high-stakes world of Major League Baseball, even the best players fail seven out of ten times. In this episode, Damon sits down with 30-year veteran sports journalist Ken Davidoff to discuss how the resilience learned on the diamond can be the ultimate blueprint for success in the boardroom and at home.

Whether you are a first-time manager struggling with a \"rough outing\" or a parent trying to help your child navigate the pressures of youth sports, this conversation offers actionable strategies on building trust through \"small ball,\" prioritizing under pressure with \"fielder’s choice\" logic, and leading with the authenticity of a World Series manager.

Why accepting failure, digesting it, and moving on is a prerequisite for both professional growth and mental strength. Why taking a literal three-second pause before reacting to a frustrating email or a spilled glass of juice can prevent \"volcano\" moments and preserve your relationships.
