In this first full episode of The Genuine Leadership Shift, we’re starting where leadership really begins: at home.

Before titles, teams, and tactics, there’s the man behind the mic — the dad, the husband, the human who’s trying to become a better version of himself every day. This episode is raw and personal on purpose.

I talk about:

• Learning to create real boundaries and standards inside the home
• Regretting the years I was physically present but mentally somewhere else
• How addiction, insecurity, and distraction muted my voice for too long
• The moment I realized my kids needed more than a provider — they needed a present leader
• What “being a husband” means to me: leading beside my wife, not over her
• Why my mission now is to be the kind of man my family can depend on, not tiptoe around
• Sobriety, service, and becoming a servant leader in my own house first

If you’ve ever looked back and wished you’d been more intentional, more present, or more confident for the people you love — this one’s for you.

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about owning where you’ve been, being honest about where you are, and committing to who you’re becoming.

What you’ll walk away with:

• A honest look at how our personal lives shape our leadership
• Permission to admit where you’ve fallen short without living in shame
• A challenge to define what kind of parent, partner, and leader you want to be
• A reminder that you cannot lead others well if you refuse to lead yourself at home

This episode sets the tone for everything that comes next on this podcast: real leadership, real life, no polish without the truth underneath it.

New here? You’re in the right place if you care about integrity, growth, and leaving a meaningful legacy — at work and at home.

Listen, reflect, and if it hits you, share it with someone who needs to hear they’re not alone in trying to figure this out.

Do Right. Be Great.
