Schoolwide Leadership Changes Everything – Rob Dinsdale

In this episode, we sit down with Shawn Lyght, Notre Dame lacrosse standout, to unpack the unseen side of leadership inside an elite program. Shawn shares what it was really like stepping into a locker room filled with older, accomplished players, learning how to prove he belonged without letting confidence turn into arrogance. We also break down the true separators at the Division I level, earning respect without forcing it, and how leadership changes when pressure increases. This conversation is a masterclass in earned leadership, humility under pressure, and what it takes to thrive in elite environments.
