In this episode, I sit down with Kristiana Corona to unpack what real leadership actually looks like as you grow your business. We talk about the blind spots that hold leaders back, why your team might not be telling you the truth, and how ego can quietly limit your growth. I share my own experiences in leadership, and we break down simple frameworks you can use immediately to become more self-aware, build trust with your team, and lead at a higher level. If you’re serious about scaling your business, this is a conversation you need to hear.
