With the weekend coming up, here’s a question I’ve been thinking about a lot while getting ready to launch 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘓𝘐𝘍𝘌:

Where does leadership inspiration actually come from?

Not just the obvious places.

Sometimes it comes from a movie you rewatch.

A song you forgot you loved.

A game you watch with your kids.

A walk outside.

A conversation at dinner.

A moment that has nothing to do with work, but somehow helps you see work, people, or yourself differently.

That is a big part of the book.

The idea that leadership growth is not limited to the hours we spend “being leaders.” It can come from the life we are already living, if we are paying attention.

So heading into the weekend, I’d love to know:
What is one place outside of work where you’ve learned something that shaped how you lead?

𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘓𝘐𝘍𝘌 launches October 13.

I’ve been grateful for every person who has taken the time to read an early copy of 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘓𝘐𝘍𝘌.

But this endorsement was especially meaningful.

Brigadier General David Komar, U.S. Army (Ret.), someone I greatly admire as a leader and person, has spent a lifetime studying, practicing, and teaching leadership in ways most of us never will.

So to have him connect with the book, and with the idea that leadership growth can come from far more places than we typically look, meant a great deal.

That idea is at the heart of Inspired by LIFE.

The experiences that shape us as people can also strengthen how we lead.

I’m grateful for General Komar’s generous words and support.

𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘓𝘐𝘍𝘌 launches October 13.

I’ve had a lot of great ideas that accomplished absolutely nothing.

I’m guessing I’m not alone.

You read something that gets you thinking. Have a conversation that changes your perspective. Hear something on a podcast or see something in a movie that makes you look at a problem differently.

You think, “I need to remember that.”

And then Tuesday happens.

The idea gets buried somewhere between meetings, emails and whatever else decided to land on your plate that day.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately because it’s a big part of Inspired by LIFE. Finding inspiration is actually the easy part. Figuring out what to do with it is where things get interesting.

That’s the focus of this week’s blog, and I also share the simple process I use for turning something that catches my attention into something I can actually use.

And with Inspired by LIFE officially launching next Tuesday, October 13, it felt like a pretty good time to share it.

One week from today, 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘓𝘐𝘍𝘌: 𝘙𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘍𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱 launches.

I’m excited. I’m grateful. And more than anything, I’m ready to see this idea finally make its way into the world.

For years, I’ve seen leaders have some of their biggest breakthroughs when they stop looking only inside the business world for answers.

Sometimes the thing that unlocks a new way of leading comes from somewhere completely different.

A movie scene.
A favorite song.
A childhood memory.
A conversation with a friend.
A moment with your kids.
A team you played on.
A character you never forgot.
A walk outside.
An act of service.
A spiritual practice.
A risk you took.
A place you felt most alive.

That is the heart of 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘓𝘐𝘍𝘌.
The future of business is changing fast. Leaders will still need experience, expertise, and ex*****on.

But that will not be enough on its own.
The leaders who thrive in what comes next will also need creativity, adaptability, resilience, authenticity, self-awareness, and the ability to see connections others miss.

This book is my attempt to help people see those connections more clearly.

To recognize that leadership growth does not only come from what we do at work.
It also comes from who we are, what we notice, what we love, what stretches us, and what brings us back to ourselves.

My hope is that Inspired by LIFE helps people see that the inspiration they need to grow, lead, and create what comes next may already be much closer than they realized.

One week from today, it launches.

You’re great at your job. So naturally, we’d like you to stop doing it.

OK, that’s not exactly how the promotion conversation goes.

But there’s some truth to it.

We tend to promote people because they’re really good at what they do. They know the business, solve difficult problems, and become the person everyone counts on when something needs to get done.

Then we give them a team and, almost overnight, the job changes.

Suddenly, having the answer isn’t always the answer.

I see this come up all the time in my coaching work. Someone can be an incredibly accomplished executive and still find it difficult to sit back while another person spends 20 minutes working through something they’re pretty sure they could knock out in five.

And there’s a lot more going on in that moment than simply learning how to delegate.

That’s what I explored in this week’s blog.

I was excited to receive the proof copy of Inspired by LIFE this week.

Holding it in my hands for the first time made the whole thing feel a lot more real.

I never expected to write a book. But the idea behind this one kept pulling me forward:

Leadership doesn’t begin and end at work.

The experiences that shape us as people can also strengthen how we lead.

That belief sits at the heart of Inspired by LIFE: Redefining the Future of Leadership, which officially launches October 13 and is now available for preorder.

Final copies are coming soon, but this was a pretty meaningful milestone.

Grateful to be at this point, and excited to finally share it.

Ever feel like the harder you work, the further behind you get?

You put in more hours, get more involved, and take on more responsibility because something isn't going the way you expected. You're doing everything you know how to do, yet somehow the situation keeps getting worse.

I've seen this happen with some incredibly capable leaders. And what's particularly frustrating is that they're often relying on the very strengths that made them successful in the first place.

It's a pattern I call the Quicksand Effect, and it's one of the key concepts in my upcoming book, Inspired by LIFE.

I explored it in this week's blog, including why recognizing when you're caught in this cycle can be so difficult.

The answer you need might have nothing to do with the problem you’re trying to solve.

That idea has been on my mind a lot lately, especially as I get closer to releasing 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘓𝘐𝘍𝘌.

We spend so much time trying to learn more. And there’s obviously value in that. But I think we underestimate how much we’ve already learned from the rest of our lives, and how useful some of it can be when we’re facing something completely different.

It’s one of the ideas from the book that I find myself thinking about more and more, especially given how quickly leadership is changing.

I dug into it a little more in this week’s blog. I’d love to know if it changes where you look the next time you’re trying to figure something out.

Pressure.

Good or bad? Helpful or harmful?

You can debate it from various perspectives. Pressure can focus us. It can create urgency. It can push us to make a decision, have a conversation, or find another level we may not have reached otherwise.

But pressure is still a tool.

And like any tool, it needs to be used wisely and carefully.

That includes the pressure around us.

It also includes the pressure we put on ourselves.

I’ve been thinking about that a lot this week because leaders often take pride in how much pressure they can handle.

And I get it.

Being steady matters. Being dependable matters. Being able to perform when things are messy matters.

But handling pressure is not the same as using it well.

That is where the “pressure makes diamonds” idea gets interesting to me.

Sometimes pressure does shape something stronger.

Other times, it makes us harder, faster, more controlling, more isolated, or more committed to an old habit that used to work.

That is also why this idea feels so connected to Inspired by LIFE: Redefining the Future of Leadership.

The book is about finding leadership lessons in places we might normally move past too quickly.

Even pressure.

Maybe especially pressure.

What is pressure helping you see right now?

Your team may be waiting for answers you do not have yet.

That is a tough spot to be in as a leader.

You want to be clear. You want to be honest. You also may be sorting through the same change everyone else is trying to understand.

I’m seeing this with a client right now during a major restructuring. The business has reasons for the change, and some of those reasons may make complete sense.

But people still have to live through it.

They still have work to do, clients to serve, meetings to attend, and decisions to make. At the same time, they are wondering what changed, what did not, what matters now, and where they fit.

AI is adding to that pressure for a lot of organizations.

The work is changing quickly, but people do not automatically change with it just because a strategy says they should.

This week’s newsletter is about that gap.

The space between the change leaders announce and the change people actually experience.

It is also one of the reasons I’m excited for Inspired by LIFE: Redefining the Future of Leadership to get into people’s hands. So much of leadership is learning how to see the real moment more clearly before deciding what to say or do next.

Someone still has to lead the humans.

What question might your team be carrying right now, even if they are not asking it out loud?
