| 6/25/26 | #0438 – Why the Best Leaders Never Planned to Be Leaders with Jessie Hathcock | Most people think great leaders have always dreamed of being in charge. But what if the opposite is true? In this episode of Deep Leadership, I sit down with Jessie Hathcock, President of The Loading Dock and founder of Scale Simple, to explore how purpose, humility, and service shape exceptional leaders. Jessie shares her remarkable journey from middle school teacher and nonprofit leader to leading one of North Carolina's most successful coworking communities through the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. We discuss why the best leaders often never planned to lead, how a clear personal mission can guide difficult decisions, why culture matters more than credentials, and how businesses can become powerful forces for good. If you're leading a team, building a company, or simply trying to make a greater impact, this conversation will challenge the way you think about leadership. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why many of the best leaders never sought the title• How purpose becomes an anchor during uncertainty• Why mission, vision, and values matter more than ever• How great leaders build cultures where people thrive• Why hiring for values often beats hiring for experience• How businesses can create lasting impact while still growing profitably Jessie Hathcock’s Resources: The Loading Dock: https://www.theloadingdock.com/ Scale Simple: https://scale-simple.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessie-hathcock-7049a5b2/ Subscribe to Deep Leadership: If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to subscribe and share it with someone who wants to become a better leader.

| 6/20/26 | #0437 – Your Body Knows You’re Burned Out Before You Do with Melissa Gonzalez | Your Body Knows You're Burned Out Before You Do What if the warning signs of burnout show up long before you recognize them? In this episode of Deep Leadership, I sit down with Melissa Gonzalez, author of The Purpose Pivot, to explore why so many high achievers ignore the signals their bodies are sending them until it's too late. After a life-threatening health crisis forced her to stop, Melissa discovered that true leadership isn't about pushing harder. It's about learning to recognize the difference between healthy ambition and unsustainable hustle. We discuss why burnout isn't a badge of honor, how purpose evolves throughout your career, and why listening to your intuition may be one of the most important leadership skills you can develop. Melissa also shares practical tools, including her "energy audit," to help leaders identify what fuels them, what drains them, and how to make meaningful changes before a crisis forces the issue. If you've ever felt exhausted, stuck, or wondered whether it's time for a change, this conversation will help you rethink what success really means and how to build a career that is both impactful and sustainable. In this episode, you'll learn: Why your body often recognizes burnout before your mind does The hidden cost of hustle culture and constant busyness How to tell the difference between positive and negative stress Why purpose naturally changes throughout your career How an "energy audit" can reveal what's draining you Practical ways to pivot without turning your life upside down How sustainable leaders create greater long-term impact Melissa Gonzalez’s Resources: Book: https://amzn.to/4oMR2X2 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/purposepivotwithmelissa/?hl=en Subscribe to Deep Leadership: If you enjoyed this episode, make sure to subscribe and share it with someone who wants to become a better leader.

| 2/22/26 | #0417 – When the Mission Fails: 5 Timeless Values Every Leader Must Live with Andy Crocker | What do you do when the mission fails? In this episode of Deep Leadership, I sit down with aerospace executive Andy Crocker to talk about what happens when a career-defining project collapses. After competing against SpaceX and Blue Origin for NASA’s Human Landing System, Andy and his team lost the contract — not once, but twice. For many leaders, that kind of loss can shake your identity. Instead of walking away bitter, Andy stepped back and asked a harder question: Who am I without the mission? That reflection led him to write The Unconditionals, a book built around five timeless values every leader must live: Love (yes, even in high-performance environments) Gratitude Integrity Accountability Endeavor We talk about why values aren’t “soft skills,” how trust is built and rebuilt, what accountability really means, and why humanity is more important than ever in the age of AI. If you’ve ever faced failure, questioned your leadership, or wondered what truly holds high-performing teams together, this conversation is for you. Leadership is a people business. And when everything falls apart, values are what keep you standing. 🎯 Get Andy’s book: https://andycrockerbooks.com/ 🎙 Subscribe for more conversations with top leaders 🔔 Share this episode to help us build a world with better bosses Until next time — lead well.

In this episode of Deep Leadership, I sit down with Gabriela Embon, author of Becoming a Power Couple, to talk about why high achievers often succeed in their careers but fail to invest in the most important partnership of their lives.

| 2/7/26 | #0415 – Real Leadership Isn’t Learned in a Classroom with Chris Hossfeld | Most leadership training happens in classrooms.Real leadership doesn’t. In this episode, I’m joined by Chris Hossfeld, a 27-year U.S. Army veteran and founder of Barrel Strength Leadership, who develops leaders by taking them to historic battlefields like Gettysburg and Normandy. We explore why pressure, emotion, and shared experience shape leaders far more than PowerPoint slides ever can. Chris explains how high-stakes environments force clarity, build trust, and reveal what leaders are truly made of—and how those lessons translate directly to business, manufacturing, and executive teams. If you believe leadership is forged in real moments, not theoretical ones, this conversation is for you.

| 1/31/26 | #0414 – How Pressure Turns Good Leaders Into Bad Bosses with Sabina Nawaz | How Pressure Turns Good Leaders Into Bad Bosses Most leaders don’t fail because they lack skill or good intentions. They fail because pressure changes how they show up. In this episode, executive coach Sabina Nawaz explains why pressure, not power, is the real force that corrupts leadership. Drawing from her work with senior leaders at Microsoft and Fortune 500 companies, Sabina breaks down how well-meaning managers slip into micromanaging, rescuing, and control—and how those habits quietly damage trust, performance, and culture. You’ll learn: Why pressure triggers the worst leadership behaviors The “sole provider” trap many leaders fall into without realizing it Why promotions are one of the riskiest moments in a leadership career How to lead yourself first so pressure doesn’t lead for you If you want to stay effective, human, and trusted as a leader—especially under pressure—this conversation is a must-listen.
