465: What Kind of Leader Are You?
April 23, 2025
What Kind of Leader Are You? This Moment Will Define Your Legacy
The Real Crisis: You’ve Been Tested—and History Is Watching How You Respond
When everything is smooth, leadership is simple.
But when everything falls apart? That’s when your identity gets revealed.
In this episode, I reflect on last week’s industry shake-up—and how it split leaders into two tribes:
- Fear‑led leaders who panic, posture, or publicly point fingers
- LOVE‑LED™ leaders who pause, choose people over profit, and build trust
Your legacy isn’t measured by your rank.
It’s measured by how you lead through crisis.
Which side are you on?
The LOVE‑LED™ Shift in This Episode
From: Fear‑Led Panic
To: LOVE‑LED™ Presence
Fear‑led leaders react.
LOVE‑LED™ leaders respond.
Fear fuels urgency, panic, and pressure.
LOVE builds trust, calm, and clarity.
You don’t have to rush to be seen—you get to pause and be rooted.
You don’t have to tear others down to rise—you get to lead with integrity.
Because real leadership isn’t revealed in success.
It’s revealed in how you show up when everything falls apart.
