Episode 57: Firestarter: Stop Ignoring the Signs

This episode hits deep.

From a resort in Mexico (yes, kind of in a bathing suit again — you’ve been warned 😏), I’m getting real about one of the hardest lessons in business: putting the wrong person in charge.


We’ve all done it—hired or promoted someone too fast, out of burnout, desperation, or straight-up hope. And when it backfires, it doesn’t just hurt revenue… it wrecks culture.


In this Firestarter, I’m sharing the signs I ignored, the damage it caused, and how I’ve changed my approach to hiring and promoting forever.


If you’ve been burned by bad leadership decisions—or you’re about to make one—this is your gut check.
