Ep. 148: The Cost of Not Changing

Podcast Logo - Lead 'Em Up

Most people fear the discomfort of change, but what they don’t realize is that the true pain often lies in staying exactly where they are. In this episode, we unpack the hidden cost of stagnation, the silent erosion of potential and purpose that comes from avoiding growth. You’ll learn why leading others to the valley of despair is actually the motivator that will change the minds of those who overprice comfort and undervalue growth. If you’ve been stuck, hesitant, or playing it safe, this conversation will challenge your mindset and ignite your next move.
