What do you do when the pressure is mounting and people are looking to you for answers? Admiral William McRaven has been there-- leading high-stakes missions as a Navy SEAL, including the raid that brought down Osama bin Laden. In this episode, the four-star admiral and bestselling author of Make Your Bed and Conquering Crisis shares battle-tested leadership lessons that apply far beyond the military. We dive into how to stay steady under pressure, earn trust when the path isn't clear, and lead with conviction even when you don't have all the answers. Admiral McRaven breaks down the mindset that separates good leaders from great ones, and why resilience, humility, and clarity of mission matter more than ever in today's world.
