In this episode, Paul tackles a truth most leaders avoid: sometimes you have to be the villain to lead right. Growth, accountability, and long-term success often require tough decisions that won’t make you popular—but they will make you effective.
Paul shares real-world insights on why great leadership means being willing to take the heat, make the hard calls, and prioritize the bigger picture—even when others don’t understand your intentions.
What You’ll Learn:
⚖️ The Cost of Leadership: Why being liked isn’t always compatible with being respected. 🗣️ Lead With Clarity: How transparency and direct communication build trust—even when delivering tough news. ❤️ Tough With Empathy: Paul explains how to make hard decisions with compassion and fairness. 🎯 Focus on the Long Game: Great leaders prioritize vision and values over short-term comfort.
If you’re ready to embrace the uncomfortable side of leadership and guide your team with strength and integrity, this episode is your wake-up call.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
