What happens when the rules only seem to apply to some people and your boss won’t address it?
In Episode 51 of the Launch Point Leader Podcast, hosts Lori May and Beau Noblitt respond to a letter from Fed Up Follower, a team member struggling with the quiet chaos that comes from inconsistent accountability. Some coworkers bend the rules with zero consequences, while others are left wondering why they bother doing things the right way.
Lori and Beau unpack the emotional cost of fairness, the leadership risks of ignoring “small stuff,” and what to do when you’re not in charge, but still want to protect your team culture. From proposing healthy solutions to having hard conversations, this episode gives you real tools to lead from the middle with clarity, influence, and respect.
What You’ll Learn:
✅ How to approach a boss who avoids enforcing policies
✅ What to say when team culture starts to erode from “little” violations
✅ Why perception matters and how to balance flexibility with fairness
🎙 Podcast Quote:
"Maybe the rules aren’t clear or maybe they’re not actually being broken. That’s why the conversation matters." – Lori May

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
