In this heartfelt and dynamic episode of Inspiration Nation, Lee, Ryan, and Jose reunite to explore the timeless African proverb, "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." With honesty and humor, the trio dives deep into the pros and cons of solo versus collaborative work, drawing on personal stories of control, ego, and growth. Ryan opens up about the challenges of delegation and trust while working abroad, Lee reflects on overcoming his control-freak tendencies, and Jose ties their journey back to the very roots of the podcast—demonstrating the power of going far together.
The episode’s central quote underscores the theme of growth through connection: "Achievement without connection often feels empty. When you grow with others, you create deeper meaning, stronger resilience, and lasting impact." Whether you're a leader, creator, or team member, this conversation is a potent reminder that real progress comes not from going it alone but from building with others.
