Episode 82: How Can I Help? The Small Question That Builds Big Trust

In this episode of Keep Trucking Personal, host Tyler Kivi shares a message that’s simple but powerful - one question that can change how we lead, how we show up, and how we finish strong: “How can I help?” Tyler breaks down why this phrase carries so much weight when it’s genuine and how real confidence comes from being willing to lift others up, not from having all the answers. He shares personal reflections from the road, lessons from leadership, and a reminder that help isn’t a word - it’s an action. From drivers lending a hand on a tough load to dispatchers checking in after a long week, Tyler highlights the ripple effect that small acts of help can create: at work, at home, and on the road. “How can I help?” isn’t about saying yes to everything; it’s about leading with confidence and care. Real leaders build influence through trust, not authority, and helping others often gives you the energy you didn’t know you needed. Tyler challenges listeners to use two simple phrases once a day - “How can I help?” and “Happy to help.” - and truly mean them. Because sometimes, helping someone else is exactly what gives you the motivation to finish strong.
