What 200 Conversations Taught Me About Leadership, Life, and Growth
🎧 Ep. 200: What 200 Conversations Taught Me About Leadership, Life, and Growth
This is not just another episode.
This is Episode 200…and a reflection on what happens when you keep showing up long after the excitement fades.
Four years ago, I pressed record for the very first time absolutely terrified…not of the technology, but of being heard. I questioned whether my voice belonged, whether anyone was listening, and whether this work would truly matter.
Two hundred episodes later, Evoke Greatness has been listened to in 96 countries and has become one of the greatest teachers of my life.
In this milestone episode, I invite you into the journey…from those early, uncomfortable beginnings to the lessons that only come from consistency, honesty, and growth done out loud.
In this episode, we explore:
• What it really looks like to grow when no one is clapping
• Why the “boring middle” is where greatness is actually built
• How leadership is formed through presence, not perfection
• The patterns I couldn’t unsee after 200 conversations
• Why confidence follows clarity, not talent
• A powerful leadership lesson inspired by a young musician playing to five people in the Nashville airport
• Why we must be willing to be bad at something long enough to get better
• Gratitude for my family, my faith, my guests, and the listeners who have walked this journey with me
You’ll also hear voices from listeners and past guests answering one simple question:
What does Evoke Greatness mean to you?
This episode isn’t a highlight reel.
It’s a reminder.
That growth is not a race…it’s a relationship you build with yourself over time.
A rising tide raises all ships, and I invite you along on this journey to Evoke Greatness!
