What separates a leader people obey from a leader people choose to follow?

In this episode, Ryan Lang sits down with Josh Roberts, 20-year Air Force veteran, leadership coach, keynote speaker, and author of Leadership Level Up. Josh brings the kind of hard-earned credibility most people only read about: drill sergeant, munitions expert, loss, trauma, resilience, and ultimately, transformation.

Together, they unpack what it truly means to lead, why fear-based leadership is the lazy man's shortcut, and how the most impactful leaders are built not through title, but through trust.

If you are a coach, entrepreneur, or leader who wants to stop relying on position and start building real followership, this episode is for you. Catch their conversation about leadership here on the Path To Mastery podcast.
