S10 E4: I Got Coached on Air and Survived with Mary Pat Jacobs

What this episode covers

This episode might be my most unhinged and enlightening one yet.  The first half is a live coaching session where I fully spiral about my impatience and need for constant clarity (yes, I’m aware of the irony).  In the second half, we go deep on how your leadership style isn’t just who you are, but it’s who work and past experiences have trained you to be.  My guest, leadership coach Mary Pat Jacobs, helps me unpack the mess with empathy, humor, and more therapy-adjacent insights than I was emotionally prepared for.  Buckle up and get ready to take some notes, friends!
