Setting the Temperature | Ep 137

Kyle returns from a Warriors for Christ fly-in event with a raw and

  vulnerable reflection on personal accountability and leadership. After

  bringing his wife to spend the weekend with his brotherhood in Allentown,

  Pennsylvania, Kyle confronts a hard truth: he was disappointed in

  himself—not because the event failed, but because he realized he wasn't

  living up to the standard he knew he should set.

  In this deeply personal episode, Kyle unpacks the danger of predisposed

  expectations, the importance of "setting the temperature" in your

  relationships, and why your natural behavior should reflect your values

  every single day—not just in special moments. He challenges listeners with

   a powerful question: If you're disappointed in your life, is it because

  you're setting unrealistic expectations on others, or because you're not

  living up to the standard you know you should have for yourself?

  Drawing from experiences serving the homeless, witnessing God move through

   his brotherhood, and examining his own internal dialogue, Kyle reveals

  why consistency in character matters more than occasional peak

  performance. This is an episode about raising your own bar, being the

  thermostat (not the thermometer) in your environment, and living

  congruently with the person you aspire to be.

  Key Takeaways:

  - Why predisposed expectations create unnecessary pain and disappointment

  - The leadership principle of "setting the temperature" in your home and

  relationships

  - How to identify if your disappointment stems from you or unrealistic

  expectations of others

  - Why your natural behavior should align with your highest values—not just

   on special occasions

  - The power of being open to receiving insight and recognizing God's

  movement in every room
