S3 E69 Stage Busters With Elbows To The Front
Saturday, 17 October, 2026
In this episode, Kim White talks about a certain kind of behavior most entrepreneurs have experienced but rarely name: stage busters with elbows to the front. Stage busters are the people who aggressively push themselves into the spotlight, crowding others out so they can be seen, heard, and praised first. Instead of sharing space, collaborating, or elevating the group, they lead with ego and urgency. They use their “elbows” to claim attention and control, often at the expense of trust, safety, and genuine connection. Kim unpacks how this shows up in small business settings and how to stay visible and strong as a leader without becoming a stage buster yourself. In this episode, you’ll hear: What “stage busters with elbows to the front” look like in real business situations How elbowing your way into the spotlight erodes trust, safety, and collaboration Subtle ways entrepreneurs accidentally crowd others out of the room or the conversation Practical shifts to share the stage, invite voices in, and still lead powerfully A gentle challenge to change how you show up in your next meeting or live session Key takeaways for small business owners & entrepreneurs: There’s a difference between showing up and shoving in Leadership that uses “elbows” to take space costs you ideas, honesty, and long-term trust The strongest leaders share the stage on purpose and anchor to the outcome, not their image When people feel safe and seen around you, they bring better ideas, feedback, and commitment Action step: Think of one upcoming situation where you’d normally rush to the front (a team meeting, a live, a collaboration, a networking call). Instead of leading with your elbows, ask: “How can I make this space safer and more collaborative for everyone here?” Then adjust how you show up and notice how the room changes.
