In this episode of the Culture Focused Practice podcast, I’m coming in swinging at one of the most common traps leaders fall into: obsessing over scripts instead of showing up with actual presence.

If you’ve ever stalled a hard conversation trying to get the words just right, this one’s for you. We unpack why scripting becomes a crutch, what actually makes your hard convos land (hint: it’s not phrasing), and how to show up clear, grounded, and human.

This is about ditching the safety blanket and building real trust instead.
