If you’ve ever thought, “My team sees me more clearly than I see myself,” welcome to The Owner’s Room—where we stop pretending and actually look. This episode is exploratory on purpose: real-time answers to five uncomfortable leadership questions plus two scenarios that hit nerves (inconsistency and burnout). Expect candor, not polish; usefulness, not theory.
You’ll hear about

- How to accept painful feedback without losing authority
- Tactical moves for inconsistent comms and real-life burnout
