📝Description:
 What if the biggest problem in politics — and in business — isn't corruption, but a total lack of servant leadership? Kyle VanDuser, author of Blue Collar Catholicism and founder of Cypress Island Enterprises, joins Steve Ramona to unpack why the people right in front of you matter more than the millions you're chasing.

  • Why Kyle left political campaign work to become a business consultant — and what politics taught him about leadership no one talks about
  • The "three most important people" framework: why everyone needs a mentor, a mentee, and an accountability partner (the Paul, Timothy, and Barnabas of your life)
  • The story behind Domino's founder Tom Monahan going from billionaire to "trillionaire" by investing in people instead of things
  • Why your "ministry" is simply the next person in front of you — and why chasing scale before serving your circle is a recipe for burnout
  • The four pillars Kyle coaches on: business, personal, mental/emotional, and spiritual life

PS: Kyle's line about legacy stuck with us: nobody preps the next person to fill their seat — not in politics, not in business, not even in families — because everyone's too focused on holding onto their own. Worth sitting with.
