#263: Direct Communication (Business Genius, Chapter 7)
Monday, 8 December, 2025

I'm sharing a powerful, eye-opening moment from a therapy session that totally flipped how I saw myself as a leader and a business owner. Spoiler: People-pleasing isn’t a virtue—it’s actually selfish. 😳 Join me as I dive into the tough truth behind avoiding direct communication and how letting things slide to keep the peace can cost you more than you realize. From a very fake employee named Tabitha to some hard-hitting lessons on leadership, this episode is packed with insights that will change how you lead and how you run your business. If you’ve ever struggled with conflict or keeping everyone happy, this one’s for you. Tune in, and let’s talk about why being a “good person” might be holding you back from being a great leader.
