About this listen

After a coworker jokingly called me an “influencer,” I found myself reflecting on why that word makes me cringe—and why influence still matters.

In this solo episode, I unpack the difference between chasing attention and leading with intention. Using John Maxwell’s idea that leadership is influence, nothing more and nothing less, I walk through the five levels of leadership and how they show up in everyday life—as parents, coaches, coworkers, creators, and neighbors.

This isn’t a conversation about algorithms, virality, or outrage. It’s about connection over controversy, curiosity over noise, and using whatever influence we have for good.
