What if the thing you have been trying to hide is the exact thing that gives you work power?

In this episode, I sit down with Jon Giganti, executive coach, speaker, and author of With Intention. Jon gets honest about what held him back, from athletics and family chaos to depression and numbing, and the long road back to presence and purpose.

Together, we unpack a tension I know many of you feel, the desire to make real impact while being afraid of sounding self promotional, salesy, or spiritually manipulated by words like service and servant leadership. What emerges is an invitation to reclaim those words and redefine what it means to lead, to serve, and to tell the truth in a way that actually helps someone.
