What if much of what we’ve been taught about leadership simply doesn’t work in the real world?In this conversation, Larry Coval, founder of ARCANE Leadership Concepts and author of Misled: Why (Almost) Everything We’ve Learned About Leadership Is Wrong and How to Fix It, challenges the leadership industry and the familiar advice that often sounds great in a conference room but falls apart when real people, pressure, performance, and results are on the line.Larry brings nearly four decades of leadership experience across organizations large and small. His philosophy is refreshingly straightforward: a leader’s job is to make their people successful. Leadership, he argues, isn’t about having the right personality, delivering inspirational speeches, or collecting management buzzwords. It’s a practical skill set that can be learned, sharpened, measured, and applied.We discuss why employee engagement continues to struggle, where traditional leadership development has gone wrong, what accountability really looks like, why some managers fail even when they mean well, and the lessons Larry learned while leading hundreds of employees and major revenue organizations.This is a conversation about stripping leadership back to what actually matters: people, execution, accountability, and results.Topics include: leadership, management, employee engagement, accountability, workplace culture, executive leadership, team performance, business growth, Misled, and the future of leadership.https://arcaneleadership.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.
What happens when you achieve the success you’ve been chasing, but something still feels missing? In this powerful conversation, Randy Lyman, physicist-turned-entrepreneur, author, speaker, and creator of The Third Element, explores why emotions may be one of the most overlooked forces shaping leadership, relationships, performance, and personal fulfillment. After building and exiting multiple eight-figure businesses, Randy discovered that strategy and hard work alone weren’t enough. Emotional mastery became the missing piece. Randy breaks down why burnout can begin emotionally before it becomes operational, how unresolved wounds can fuel overachievement, and why leaders who constantly suppress what they feel may unknowingly influence the culture around them. We also discuss vulnerability, trust, intuition, abundance, and why even highly successful people can reach the top and still feel disconnected from themselves. This conversation challenges the traditional idea that emotions get in the way of success. Randy makes the case that learning how to understand and work with them could be the very thing that unlocks the next level. Topics include: emotional mastery, leadership, burnout, overachievement, vulnerability, entrepreneurship, personal growth, fulfillment, mindset, and The Third Element.https://randylyman.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.

What happens when the life you thought you were supposed to have no longer fits the person you’re becoming?On this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Shemaiah Reed sits down with Sandra Lena Silverman, bestselling author, speaker, and host of The Party’s Over, for an honest conversation about aging, beauty, relationships, heartbreak, self-worth, and the courage to reinvent yourself.Sandra has turned some of life’s most uncomfortable chapters into stories filled with humor, resilience, and hard-earned perspective.

What happens when working harder is no longer enough to grow your business?On this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Shemaiah Reed sits down with entrepreneur, business growth strategist, and author Jim Fitzgerald for a conversation about breaking through business plateaus, becoming a stronger leader, and building systems that allow a company to grow without everything depending on the owner.Jim brings more than three decades of entrepreneurial experience to the conversation. He built Taradel from a one-man operation into a national direct-mail and digital-marketing company serving more than 25,000 small-business customers and generating $30 million in revenue before its sale. He later founded Fitzgerald Growth Partners, helping business owners identify the real constraints holding their companies back and create structures designed for intentional, sustainable growth.Jim is also the author of The Million Dollar Hurdle, a USA TODAY bestselling book that distills more than 35 years of business-building experience into a practical framework for moving beyond effort, chaos, and chance.In this conversation, Jim and Shemaiah explore why growth problems are often structure problems rather than motivation problems, why leadership can be learned, how clarity reduces friction inside a company, and what entrepreneurs must change when the habits that helped them start a business are no longer enough to scale it.This episode is for entrepreneurs, founders, leaders, and anyone trying to build something meaningful without becoming the bottleneck inside their own vision.https://fitzgeraldgrowthpartners.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.
