    Mar 31 2026

    Chris and Kurt are in the middle of a 5-episode series thatthey think will be particularly relevant and helpful for entrepreneurs, small business founders, and non-profit director types of leaders!

    The reality of those types of roles is that they often comewith serious, unique responsibilities and pressures. All too often, leaders in those worlds end up feeling they bear the full weight of those responsibilities and pressures alone. But Chris and Kurt don’t believe it HAS to be that way. That there is a BETTER way to live and lead in those types of leadership roles.

    Today’s episode, they wrap up the series by thinking about the importance of not only WHAT we do but HOW we do what we do! It matters, and often more than we understand.
