I recently joined Moshe Rosenblum-Amsel CPA MBA on the Profit with Law podcast for a conversation about leadership, workplace culture, and the hidden risks organizations face when growth outpaces leadership development.

We talked about succession planning, storytelling as a leadership tool, and why connection and vulnerability matter so much in the workplace.

If you’re building a team, growing a business, or developing future leaders, I think you’ll find a lot of value in this conversation.

I couldn't see the audience because of the stage lights. Every once in a while, my lip would stick to my teeth because I was getting the dry mouth of nervousness. It's my turn with the mic at the Moth GrandSLAM with 9 other AZ winners from the past year.

5 years ago, if you would have told me that I would be standing on a stage in a storytelling competition sharing a word-for-word memorized story about dancing with my daughter before she launched to Paris, I would have had so many questions. But such is life. It unfolds and develops in ways that we often don't plan. I'd love to share that story with you now.
