    Ep 2 — You're Always Selling (with Kat Hurd)

    Think sales isn't your job? If you lead, you're selling all day long. Your ideas, your decisions, your timelines, your team's work, and yourself. In this episode of Leadership Happy Hour, I sit down with Kat Hurd, a sales strategist and leadership coach who spent nearly twenty years in medical device sales, to unpack what most leaders get wrong about influence. Kat went from Clinical Specialist to Rep of the Year, grew a $500K territory into $6.5 million, and scaled a team from zero to fifty-five before stepping out to coach. We get into building influence before you have the title, why the way you speak and strategize shapes the opportunities you get, and the systems that make success repeatable instead of accidental. She also shares one of the hardest lessons in the jump from top performer to leader: you're not there to make your team carbon copies of you, you're there to make them better than you. Grab a drink and pull up a seat. You'll leave with one move you can make this week.

    Busy Isn't the Same as Intentional (with Lisa Welker-Finney)

    Busy isn't the same as intentional, and most leaders never learn the difference. In this first episode of Leadership Happy Hour, I sit down with Lisa Welker-Finney, President and CEO of Millennium Consulting, to talk about leading on purpose in a world that changes by the hour. We get into the truth most leaders are avoiding, the one move that builds trust fast, and how to tell the difference between real intentionality and autopilot. Then we dig into the three shifts Lisa works on with executives: intentionality, strategy, and ownership. That includes why so many leaders think they have a strategy their team can't actually name, and what's really holding capable people back from taking their seat at the table. Grab a drink and pull up a seat. You'll leave with one move you can make this week.
