The Mindset Behind Real Leadership

The Playbook With David Meltzer

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Minnesota Timberwolves co-owner and serial entrepreneur Marc Lore for a conversation about mindset, failure, and how we prepare the next generation. We talk about growing up under pressure, the flawed messages baked into our education system, and why curiosity matters more than certainty. Marc reflects on raising kids to think independently, while I share why asking for help is one of the most important skills we can teach. From navigating trial and error to embracing purpose over perfection, we look at how gratitude, empathy, and openness can shape better leaders and stronger communities.
