🎙️ Lead It Like Lasso Podcast: So Long, Farewell – Season 3 Finale Recap

In this powerful season finale episode, Nick Coniglio and Marnie Stockman are joined once again by real-life “Coach Lasso” Lee MJ Elias to unpack the emotional final chapter of Ted Lasso Season 3 — So Long, Farewell. They reflect on what it means to let go, grow, and lead with heart.

Lee shares uncanny parallels between his own life and the fictional series — from coaching in the UK to now leading the Puerto Rican women’s national hockey team to a gold medal. Together, they dive deep into the epilogue-style storytelling of the finale and explore why the show’s greatest victories were never about the scoreboard.

💡 Key Leadership Takeaways:

• Letting Go to Move Forward: The finale reminds us that great leaders create something that lasts beyond them. Whether it’s Ted returning home or Rebecca sharing ownership, legacy is built through trust.
• Growth Over Glory: AFC Richmond didn’t win the league — and that’s the point. Winning isn’t the only measure of success. Becoming the best version of yourself is.
• Team Over Ego: From Jamie’s transformation to Roy’s vulnerability, the show affirms that authentic leadership and deep team bonds matter more than individual accolades.
• Mental Fitness Matters: The conversation explores how self-awareness, healing, and inner growth drive meaningful leadership — not perfection.
• The Power of Belief: As Lee says, “Anytime people come together for a common goal, it's miraculous.” That’s the heart of Ted Lasso — and of the Lead It Like Lasso philosophy.

🎙️ Lens of Leadership | S3 E11: Mom City

In this emotional and revealing episode of Lens of Leadership, Nick Coniglio and Marnie Stockman dive deep into Ted Lasso Season 3, Episode 11: Mom City — an episode full of second chances, parental reckonings, and rediscovering purpose.

🧠 What We Explore:

• The Power of Processing Pain
  Ted’s surprise visit from his mother Dottie forces both of them to confront their long-buried grief, revealing how unprocessed emotions can impact leadership, parenting, and self-care.
• Redemption and Second Chances
  Nate’s return to coaching is paved with humility, growth, and Beard’s powerful backstory. What does it mean to be judged by your weakest moment—or your strength when you’re given a second chance?
• Jamie’s Identity Crisis
  Without his father’s approval driving him, Jamie loses his spark. But with help from Roy, Keeley, and Ted (plus a meaningful visit to his mom), he learns the leadership skill no one talks about: forgiveness—for others, and for yourself.
• The Leadership Archetype of "The Caretaker"
  Ted and Dottie both show how helping others without caring for yourself can lead to burnout. Marnie and Nick explore how this archetype shows up in real-life leadership—and why it resonates so strongly with audiences.
• Keely’s Growth and Motivation Shift
  No longer driven by appearance or fame, Keely is embracing a deeper purpose. We unpack the idea that fear of success can be as limiting as fear of failure.
• The Power of Support Networks
  Jamie doesn’t heal in isolation—it takes Roy, Keeley, Ted, and even his mom to bring him back. We discuss how leaders need their own “Diamond Dogs” to thrive.

📚 Bonus Takeaways:
Insights on trauma and leadership from psychologist Dr. Benjamin Hardy, how moms really do have superpowers (science says so!), and why “hurt people hurt people” isn’t just a throwaway line—it’s a leadership lens.

🎙️ S3, Ep10 – “International Break” | Lead It Like Lasso: A Ted Lasso Rewatch Podcast
Hosted by Nick Coniglio & Marnie Stockman
📚 Based on the leadership book Lead It Like Lasso

In this episode, Nick and Marnie dive into the emotionally charged and fast-moving episode International Break. As the season winds down, character arcs are completing and leadership lessons are peaking. From forgiveness to finding identity, they explore what it means to lead through transition.

🔥 In this episode, we unpack:

• Sam’s exclusion from the Nigerian national team — and how his teammates show solidarity when systems fail.
• Nate’s quiet redemption — including a powerful moment of healing between father and son.
• Rebecca’s Lioness Moment — taking a principled stand against the Super League, reminding us that power doesn’t equal ownership.
• Roy’s return to emotional honesty — through tie-dye, Phoebe’s wisdom, and a handwritten letter to Keeley.
• Keeley’s fall and rise — with help from May, Rebecca, and a little well-timed lightning.

💡 Leadership lessons are everywhere:

• How do you respond when someone around you is treated unfairly?
• What does your younger self have to teach you?
• Can you stay true to your character when the pressure is on?
