What if your leadership training is sabotaging your future? The skills that got you promoted might be the exact things keeping you stuck. In this game-changing conversation, leadership expert Todd Bolsinger reveals why our best instincts often backfire and what it actually takes to lead transformation instead of just managing change. Todd drops serious truth bombs about why the three hardest words for any leader aren't "I love you" but "I don't know," and how Google discovered that psychological safety beats expertise every time. You'll learn the Lewis and Clark leadership lesson about dropping your "canoes," why people resist loss (not change), and how to move from being the expert to becoming the learner your organization actually needs. Todd Bolsinger is the founder of AE Sloan Leadership and author of Canoeing the Mountains and the Practicing Change series.

Is your church really stuck, or are you just seeing things the wrong way? In this solo episode of The Calm and Confident Leader , Jason Stonehouse gets honest with church leaders. No guests. No fluff. Just a straight-talking, hope-filled challenge to rethink how we lead the local church. Now, let’s address the obvious. This episode is specifically for church leaders. If you're a pastor, staff member, elder, or part of a church that's trying to figure out what's next, you need this. Jason draws from over 30 years of pastoral ministry (and way too many awkward staff meetings) to explain why what feels like “stuck” might actually be misdiagnosed. From nostalgic glasses to complexity confusion to leadership fatigue, he unpacks the lenses that distort our view and how to swap them out for clarity, presence, and purpose.

What if the very thing you think is driving your success is actually destroying everything that matters most? Most leaders get trapped in the lie that success requires sacrifice. They think that to win at work, you have to lose at home. But what if there's a better way? On this episode of the Calm and Confident Leader, host Jason Stonehouse interviews Jimmy Page, author, keynote speaker and executive coach speaking for businesses such as the NFL, NCAA, Intel, Microsoft, State Farm, the US Naval Academy and many more. Jimmy breaks down his game-changing "Six Domains of Mastery" that show you how to level up in every area of life without burning out or sacrificing what matters most. You'll discover why "balance" is actually a myth (and what to do instead), the three non-negotiable mindset rules that separate high performers from everyone else, and how to build a "protocol" that makes you unstoppable in all six critical areas of your life. This isn't another productivity hack or time management tip. This is about designing a life where you can dominate professionally while actually strengthening your relationships, health, and peace of mind. Jimmy's approach has helped everyone from NASCAR teams to Fortune 500 executives create sustainable success that doesn't come at the cost of their soul.

"Improv Your Leadership: Stevie Ray Reveals Why Weaknesses Don't Exist" Let's be honest—most of us obsess over our so-called "weaknesses" like they're the weird family photo we need to hide. But what if Stevie Ray is right, and there's actually no such thing as weaknesses at all? In this mind-bending episode (worth every extra minute), Jason sits down with Stevie Ray, the improv mastermind behind Minneapolis's premier improv company who's helped transform teams at some of the world's biggest organizations. Stevie doesn't just challenge conventional wisdom about personal development—he flips it upside down and shakes the loose change out of its pockets. Through the lens of improv, he reveals why: You can't ask a fish why it's not flying—that's not what it's made for What we label as "weaknesses" are often just expecting the wrong things from ourselves The best teams don't try to "fix" people but position them where their natural abilities shine Whether you're leading a team of two or two thousand, Stevie's revolutionary approach to communication, team-building, and personal growth will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about becoming better. Fair warning: This episode runs longer than our usual format, but trust me—you'll be mad if we cut even a minute. This conversation isn't just about becoming a better leader; it's about becoming a more complete human.

One of the top questions we hear from leaders is, "how do I be more 'present' with the people and situations that matter most to me?" You see, the problem isn't that the people or situations AREN'T important, but it's that they don't FEEL important! This is particularly an issue with leaders because we are taught and let's be honest, our jobs depend on us being in the future, figuring out where we need to be. But if we're in the future, we are not present. Sometimes we're not present because of fear or insecurities, some of us have social anxiety. No one chooses to be afraid, so it's not like we WANT to do this, but we're doing it. So how do we become more present when we need and want to be?In this important episode, Jason Stonehouse walks us through some brand new thinking and content on the subject.
