Leading people over time requires more than good intentions. It requires self-location.

Before you recalibrate trust, adjust structure, or change your level of involvement, you have to know where you’re actually standing. Not on your best day. Not in theory. In pressure.

This episode explores three mirrors that help you locate yourself as a leader over time: pressure, which reveals your reflex, repetition, which exposes the edge of your strengths, and your wake, which shows what your leadership consistently produces.

Because when you lead people over time, your defaults compound. And you cannot intentionally develop others if you don’t know where you are starting from.
