Episode 948 | Leading Yourself is the Highest Form of Freedom

What’s happening, what’s happening?! Welcome back to the show! Today we’re diving into the one thing that impacts every area of your life, career, and happiness—self-leadership. Before you lead a team, a company, or a family, you’ve got to learn how to lead yourself. And let’s be honest—it’s the hardest job of all. Joining me today is Jim Williams, and we unpack what it really means to lead yourself with clarity, humility, and discipline.  We break down: ✅ Why self-leadership is mental warfare—and worth the battle ✅ How to identify your strengths, gifts, and blind spots ✅ Why chasing money without alignment leads to burnout ✅ How to build mental, emotional, financial, and spiritual freedom ✅ The danger of staying in the wrong “lane” too long We also talk about how corporate culture and bad leadership training often push people to “fix their weaknesses” instead of developing their superpowers. The truth? You can’t lead others well if you’re not first grounded in who you are and what you’re meant to do. 🔥 CHALLENGE: Ask yourself: In what area of your life are you not leading yourself well right now? Get brutally honest. Then take ONE step to change it.
