podcast August 27, 2025


Background
share close

In this episode, I’m breaking down what true power really is and why most people are scared of it, even though they say they want it. I’ll explain what true power looks like, feels like, and the trade-offs that come with it. If you’ve been listening to me, you know there’s no perfect scenario, only trade-offs. Once you understand what power really means and the responsibility it brings, you’ll see why most people actually don’t want it. Let’s get into it.

Show Notes: 

[01:40]#1 True power comes with an equal amount of responsibility and accountability for all things. 

[11:22]#2 When you have true power, you can’t point the finger at anybody. 

[19:31]#3 When you have true power, you can actually do all the stuff that you have been thinking about and wishing you could do and talking about doing.
