Episode 26: Leadership is Everywhere: Lessons from Ted Lasso

I’m back on Harmony in the Hustle after a whirlwind few weeks—traveling, recording interviews, spending Easter with family, and stepping into something huge…
💥 My very first big keynote stage.

In this episode, I’m sharing the real, raw behind-the-scenes of speaking at the Business Blueprint Conference on the Celebrity Edge cruise ship (yes, dream come true 🚢) and what it took to deliver a keynote I’m incredibly proud of.

The topic Dale Beaumont gave me?
“How to lead people who don’t want to be led.”
I laughed—because honestly? That’s been the theme of my life.

I open up about:

• Why leadership isn’t just for the boardroom—it’s in our homes, our families, and every interaction

• How I pulled from my own story—athletics, building Vasco’s, parenting Dylan through ADHD and ODD, and leading in industries I had no experience in

• The Ted Lasso effect—why humility, asking great questions, and leading with culture matter more than a résumé

• Why confidence is built by doing scary things, not waiting to feel ready

• The power of preparation and why I no longer "wing it"

One of the biggest things I learned? People don’t want perfection—they want honesty. The messy middle. The stuff we usually hide.

This keynote taught me so much, not just about leadership, but about who I’ve become. And I want this episode to remind you that:

➡️ You’re not too old.
➡️ You’re not behind.
➡️ You’re not starting from scratch—you’re starting from experience.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to take the leap… this is it.

💥 My Key Reminders for You:

• Do the scary thing—it’s where the growth is.

• Confidence = trust. And you build trust by showing up.

• You don’t need to be perfect, you just need to be willing.

• Let go of what others think. Let them judge. Do it anyway.
