Show Notes

In this episode, we discuss what Ben Horwitz calls "the struggle." We review his book, The Hard Thing About Hard Things, at a high level and unpack some concepts related to leading an organization, leading a team, and stepping into the unknown.

There are a lot of fears that come up when you're stepping into a leadership role, and there will be new challenges that await you every step of the way. This book and conversation offer insight into what to expect and what to do about it. We kick off the conversation with the courage development process, which is stepping into action despite your fears. The degree to which we can do this in various areas of life will dictate the quality of our experience and fulfillment.
