In this episode of Speak Up. Show Up. Lead., JJ Hardy—Army veteran, leadership coach, and author of Speak Up. Show Up. Lead: A Veteran’s Story of Grit, Growth, and Leadership from the Ground Up—unpacks the lies leaders tell themselves that sabotage success.
From the myth of “I don’t have time,” to the trap of “If I want it done right, I’ll do it myself,” to the dangerous assumption that “My team already knows what I expect”—JJ breaks down how these false beliefs limit your leadership impact.
Through raw storytelling, practical strategies, and lessons forged in the military and business world, JJ shows why resilience, delegation, and trust are non-negotiables for leaders who want to thrive without burning out.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
