How to Lead Yourself Before You Lead Your Team

Описание: 🎯 Ready to lead at the next level? Book a call: https://amyevanscoaching.com

You're killing it on the outside—hitting numbers, leading your team—but on the inside you feel disconnected, spent, or just going through the motions. Sound familiar? This conversation is for you.

Today I'm joined by Joshua Roberts—leadership and performance coach, author, and former U.S. Air Force Senior Master Sergeant who spent 20 years developing leaders in high-pressure environments. His nickname was "The Soul Reaper." But today he helps high performers lead from within so success doesn't cost you your peace.

In this episode, you'll discover:
✓ Why leading yourself FIRST is the foundation of everything
✓ The difference between confidence and arrogance (and why it matters)
✓ How to build a leadership identity that isn't tied to your title
✓ The real reason delegation feels so hard—and how to fix it
✓ Why people obey out of fear but FOLLOW out of respect

If you've been leading everyone else while quietly neglecting yourself, this episode will stop you in your tracks—in the best possible way.

• Leadership starts with self leadership—if that's failing, everything else will follow
• Confidence + humility = the leadership sweet spot
• People will obey a fearful leader but only CHOOSE to follow one they respect
• Delegation isn't weakness—withholding it is actually selfish
• Your title is not your identity. Your values are.
• Ask yourself: WHO do I need to be as a leader—not just HOW do I lead?
