Stand Tall & Own It - Equipping Purpose-Driven Leaders to Show Up with Authenticity and Courage
“Just be you,” they say. But for many high-achievers, “just being you” hasn’t always felt safe or practical—whether it’s at work, school, church, or even in leadership circles. For purpose-driven leaders, holding back can limit your impact and undermine your authenticity.
Even in workplaces that claim to value individuality, leading with confidence and conviction still takes courage. To lead with steadiness and clarity, you must first understand your values, embrace your individuality, and recognize that the solutions you need are as unique as you are.
Stand Tall & Own It is for modern leaders who want to lead with purpose, integrity, and courage—without sacrificing who they are. Each episode explores how to navigate challenges, make values-anchored decisions, and cultivate the discernment to think critically in a noisy world.

Episode 91 - Creating the Next Best Leaders Through Resilience
Feedback or Questions? Send us a text!
How many times have you been discouraged by poor leadership - above you, around you, in your organization or community? On tv? It affects the culture of the organization (no matter the size) and impacts the motivation of the entire team. When it affects YOU, personally, impacting your ability to do your work well, with joy, a sense of satisfaction or at least not hate it, the issue looms larger than life. The question is, what can you DO about it? Cultivate RESILIENCE.
Topics discussed in this episode:
Resilience is the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties, or toughness, and involves three things.
- Character - I build this up by doing what I say I'll do, even if it's hard.
- Consistency - I do small things aligned with my "why" that make big changes possible.
- Focus - knowing where I'm headed reduces my distractions, so I keep my eye on the prize.
