00:39:29 Lillabea and Ethan explore the differences between male and female leaders in the workplace.
00:52:11 Lillabea’s 12th takeaway from the book and how she applies it in her role.
00:59:07 Our mission is to uplift people through coffee. It starts with the team first, then extends to the guests

01:12:33 Lillabea asks Ethan: What is your proudest moment as a leader?
01:18:16 There is so much value in serving and cultivating a personal experience.
01:21:20 Your work does not define your worth.
