Authors Who Lead - Learn to write a book from bestselling authors and leaders
Business:Entrepreneurship
As co-hosts of the “Authors Who Lead” podcast, Steve Vannoy and I are thrilled to announce our 300th episode. It’s been an incredible journey of inspiring conversations with visionary authors and leaders, and we’re filled with gratitude for the insights shared, the stories that moved us, and the community we’ve built together.
In this special episode, we reflect on our path, from the initial inspiration drawn from Gay Hendricks’s The Big Leap to the evolution of our podcast. We explore what it truly means to transition from your zone of excellence to your zone of genius and the importance of following your true passions.
