"The Best of Season 2" - The Fast Slow Motion Podcast - Ep 051

In this episode, host Sam Donaghey and FSM Director of Growth Michael Johnson look back at the most impactful moments from Season 2 of The Fast Slow Motion Podcast. You’ll hear insights from purpose experts, operators, founders, brand builders, leadership thinkers, and FSM leadership — all centered on how to build a business that lasts without losing yourself in the process.

Sam and Michael revisit the ideas that resonated most with listeners this year, including turning purpose into a repeatable discipline, why attention is a leader’s most powerful tool, what separates a cool product from a legendary brand, how honest forecasting builds trust, why sales is simply another form of service, how behavioral insights transform leadership, and the Working Genius framework that helps teams thrive. They also reflect on John Burdett’s powerful reminders about failure, values, preparation, and building a business that can stand when life gets hard.

If you want to strengthen your leadership, design systems that scale, and build a business that supports a real life, this episode is for you.
