Pressure Reveals Everything: The Leadership Habits That Make or Break Culture
Friday, 9 January, 2026

There’s a moment every leader faces, when waiting is no longer an option.No excuses. No blaming the market. No hiding behind “I’m not ready.”You either step up… or your habits step in for you.In this solo episode of Keep the Change, I share one of the most powerful leadership lessons of my life, through a story I watched unfold up close. It’s the story of my mom, who at 59 years old was suddenly thrust into leadership she didn’t ask for, in an industry on the brink of collapse. What happened next didn’t just save a business, it revealed how leadership habits quietly shape culture, and how culture always shows up in profits.In this episode, we unpack:Why pressure doesn’t create character, it reveals habitsHow awareness (not action) is the real starting point of changeThe subtle leadership habits that quietly shape culture, for better or worseWhy asking beats telling and listening builds trust faster than authority ever willThe difference between intention, decision, and commitment (and why most leaders stop too soon)How coaching conversations unlock ownership instead of defensivenessWhy developing people is the strongest predictor of long-term performanceAnd the hard truth every leader needs to hear: culture isn’t what you intend—it’s what your people experienceIf you’re leading a team, running a business, or feeling the weight of responsibility heavier than ever, this episode will challenge how you think about habits, communication, accountability, and growth.Because when leadership becomes unavoidable, the only thing you can fall back on… is who you’ve already become.Enjoying the show?
