Ever felt stuck in a cycle of burnout and missed goals? The culprit might be closer than you think—your team.

In this raw episode, I unpack Tuckman’s Stages of Group Development to expose why “who’s on your ship” determines whether you sink or soar. From personal stories of purging toxic influences to hard truths about family dynamics,

I break down:

🔷How wrong voices sabotage hope.

🔷Why “cleaning house” isn’t ruthless—it’s necessary.

🔷The #1 mistake leaders make in the “storming” phase. How to spot “energy vampires” and rebuild teams that multiply momentum.

Whether you’re leading a startup, family, or personal reinvention, this episode is your wake-up call: Your environment writes your outcomes. Have you ever cut ties with someone holding you back? Join the conversation.
