Over the holidays, a series of experiences brought him back to one theme: being humbled. Crowe talks about the moments that knock people to their knees, how they open a door of understanding between people, and why the richest friendships and stories often come from facing failure, anxiety, and shame—and choosing to look for the light at the end of the tunnel. Key Discussion Points Getting Unstuck: He discusses a simple practice for the new year: humbling oneself enough to ask, “What is the next small thing I should fix?” rather than seeking grand answers. Show Evolution: He outlines how the podcast will evolve to feature guests revealing the times they were humbled and what they learned, with the goal of connecting more deeply and getting better one step at a time. Communication Training: For those interested in sharpening communication—negotiation, storytelling, conflict navigation, and presenting ideas—Crowe is running his Interest-Based Communicating course (online and in-person in St. Louis).
