In this episode, Trevor shares a pivotal UH-OH moment from early in his military career, when pulling rank felt right, but ultimately backfired. We talk through the fallout, the leadership repair work that followed, and how that hard-earned lesson shaped the calm, coach-driven leadership style he’s known for today.

Trevor also opens up about:

• Why asking “why?” can backfire and what to ask instead
• How gardening from seed surprisingly mirrors leadership growth
• The power of DISC and consistent self-reflection
• Knowing when to pivot versus when to push through

John opens up about one of his biggest UH-OH moments: a communication breakdown with a co-founder that unraveled a promising startup. In a raw, reflective account, he unpacks how ego, miscommunication, and the need to be "right" cost him a partnership. But from the ashes came powerful lessons on active listening, humility, and focusing on the bigger picture.

As the conversation unfolds, John shares how those hard-earned lessons inspired him to co-create Miingl, a live, interactive platform designed to bring back authentic human connection in the age of short-form content and shrinking attention spans. From hiring people for their ideas, not just their resumes, to leading with curiosity and honesty, John gives us a grounded, thoughtful perspective on leadership that values community over control.

If you've ever found yourself in the middle of a communication mess, wondering how things fell apart, or if you're just trying to build something that actually brings people together, this episode is packed with insight, laughs, and a reminder that being teachable might be the most powerful skill you can bring to the table.

Along the way, we talk about discernment, building character through choices, and Cynthia’s two surprising alternative career paths: seminary student and roller derby queen (yes, really).
