Your Heroes Aren't Who You Think They Are | Rhonda Klch on Trust, Mentorship & Real Success
Rhonda Kich has spent 20 years in the rooms where deals get done, and she's met heroes who weren't who they claimed to be. Stephen Scoggins and Rhonda talk about finding mentors you can actually trust in a world full of performers. Rhonda is a dealmaker, strategic advisor, host of the Unfiltered podcast, and president of Mentor Box 2.0. She has helped founders, fund managers, athletes, and entertainers get funded, get visible, and get into the right rooms. Now she's rebuilding Mentor Box as a trust platform where every mentor is vetted, peer reviewed, and expected to own their failures. In this episode, you'll hear: Why meeting your heroes can leave you feeling "a little violated," and what to do when a room isn't aligned "Every referral is a loan on your reputation": spotting takers vs. heart-centered people Why posing in front of a rented jet or sports car makes you an imposter Stephen's story of having everything on paper and feeling completely empty How Mentor Box 2.0 vets mentors, and why having no failures disqualifies you The one question that makes Rhonda end a conversation immediately How to build an advisory board before you can afford a team Lion or Lamb: which one cost Rhonda more? It's the Lion and Lamb methodology in action: the boldness to walk away from the wrong rooms, and the humility to ask for help.

5 Failed Rehabs, Then He Made a Deal With God | Bernard Quisumbing

Twenty years later, he's walking through the one loss he can't outwork. Stephen Scoggins sits down with Bernard, former hip-hop artist, former top-performing car salesman, and fitness and wellness thought leader with the Don't Quit Legacy Foundation, for one of the most honest conversations ever on One Part Lion, One Part Lamb.

What's Yours to Carry? The Question That Ends Excuses | Dan Sachkowsky
He had the mansion, the exotic cars, and every marker of "made it" by age 24 — and none of it was real. It took a heart attack to show him why. In this episode, Stephen sits down with Dan Sachkowsky — performance coach, founder of Big D Coaching, and author of the upcoming book Following Your Way Uphill — for a conversation about what happens when strength becomes the very thing that's holding you back. Dan built his first business at 17 with no idea what he was doing, chased every marker of success he could get his hands on, and lost it all more than once before he understood why. He and Stephen unpack the moment a heart attack forced him to confront that his focus had been off for years, the "systems first, people second" mindset that finally got him out of his own way, and why so many entrepreneurs think they're serving their families when they're really just serving their own ego. This one lives right at the center of the Lion and Lamb methodology, the drive and discipline to build something real, paired with the humility to release control before it costs you everything. In this episode: Why founders who try to do everything themselves are the actual bottleneck in their business The delegation trap Dan calls "holding their shirt," and how it keeps teams from growing Why "I'm doing this for my family" is often a story entrepreneurs tell themselves How a heart attack forced Dan to rebuild his company — and himself — on purpose The difference between a leader who intimidates and one who protects Why "selfish" isn't a dirty word, and how taking care of yourself is what lets you actually serve others Where Dan's Lion still runs hot, and where the Lamb has saved him more than once Connect with Dan Sachkowsky Coaching: bigdcoaching.com If this episode challenged you, do us a favor and follow the show, leave a rating and review, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

Paralyzed. Suicidal. Then He Surrendered, And EVERYTHING Shifted | Marcus Aurelius Anderson
At 40, Marcus Aurelius Anderson was paralyzed from the neck down and, in his own words, suicidal. What finally moved him wasn't willpower, it was surrender. In this episode, Stephen sits down with Marcus Aurelius Anderson — Army veteran, author, speaker, and CEO of Catalyst International — to talk about the four months he spent fighting his own paralysis before he finally stopped resisting it. They dig into why adversity only shows its "gift" in hindsight, the difference between patience and hesitation, and why most leaders are the actual bottleneck in their own business. Marcus also breaks down two tools he uses with clients to stay regulated under real pressure: the "Hungry Judge" bias (how sleep, blood sugar, and fatigue quietly warp your decisions) and the parachute breath, a 30-second reset for people who don't have five minutes for box breathing. It's the Lion and Lamb methodology in action, the strength to keep pushing, paired with the humility to know when to let go. Marcus is the author of the new book Acta Non Verba ("actions, not words") and host of the Acta Non Verba podcast. Find him at marcusaureliusanderson.com.

Why You Snap At People You Love, The ALIGN Method, & Why ADHD Isn't A Disorder | Sara Hartley
Your body knows if a room is safe before your brain even understands why. If you don't know what to do with that signal, it doesn't just disappear, it gets handed to the people who love you most. In this episode, Stephen sits down with Sara Hartley, ADHD and nervous system regulation coach and children's book author, to unpack the hidden physical sequence that happens in your body in the seconds before you snap, and the exact tool she built to interrupt it in under 60 seconds.

What you'll learn in this episode: Why the people you love most usually get the worst of your dysregulation, and it's not because you don't love them The physical "sword and shield" sensation Stephen felt every time he was triggered, before he had a name for it The difference between fight, flight, freeze and fawn, and why some people fully disassociate and don't remember what happened The ALIGN method: the 5-step, under-60-second tool for shifting from reaction to response Why high-capacity leaders are so good at hiding dysfunction, and what it's actually costing them Why "you're not set in your ways, you're choosing to stay in your way" Episode Highlights: 0:00 Trailer 1:09 Welcome & meet Sara Hartley 4:36 Understanding triggers & dysregulation 22:20 The ALIGN Method: reaction to response in 60 seconds 28:01 Breaking patterns you've carried for decades 36:37 Sara's story: ADHD, burnout & Lyme disease 46:14 Why leaders hide dysfunction 58:22 Reframing ADHD as a superpower 1:01:40 Parenting & regulating at home 1:12:43 Sara's free tools, quiz & where to find her 1:16:37 Rapid fire round Connect with Sara Hartley: Website (free ALIGN resources, quiz & children's books): saralouishartley.com Instagram: @saralouishartley Connect with Stephen Scoggins: Website: stephenscoggins.com Instagram: instagram.com/stephen_scoggins TikTok: tiktok.com/@stephen_scoggins Facebook: facebook.com/stephenscoggins LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/stephenscoggins If this episode resonated with you, the best way to support the show is to follow One Part Lion, One Part Lamb wherever you're listening and leave a quick rating and review, it's what helps this conversation reach more high-capacity leaders who need to hear it!

The Car Crash That Changed Everything | Dana Flanagan
Most people are chasing visibility while their credibility quietly runs out, and that gap once cost Dana Flanagan's entire team their paycheck. In this episode, Stephen sits down with Dana Flanagan, a real estate authority turned media strategist and founder of The Authority Architects, to unpack the real difference between being seen and being trusted. Dana shares the business partner whose visibility hid the fact he had no money, and the near-fatal car accident that later collapsed her timeline on everything else. It's the Lion and Lamb methodology in action, the conviction to walk away from a business built on facade, paired with the humility to drop the performer mask and lead from real service. We Unpack: Why visibility without credibility cost her entire team their paycheck The moment "guru worship" started dying, and why that's a good thing How to niche down without losing business, and whether you can go too niche The "John Doe" method for writing copy that actually converts Why referrals and in-person trust beat advertising every time How to know if you or your content are actually ready for the spotlight The car accident that taught her "time is precious, do it now" Connect with Dana Flanagan: Burnout to Brilliance (book waitlist): Work with Dana (The Authority Architects): https://danaflanagan.com Connect with Stephen Scoggins: Website: https://stephenscoggins.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephen_scoggins LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephenscoggins If you got value from this episode, subscribe to One Part Lion, One Part Lamb wherever you listen, and leave a rating and review, it helps this show reach more high-capacity, faith-driven leaders!

The Study That Should Scare EVERY Leader | Lucas Sherraden
95% of people believe they're completely self-aware. Only 10% actually are, and that gap nearly cost this week's guest his business, his family, and his sanity. On this episode of One Part Lion, One Part Lamb, Stephen sits down with Lucas Sherraden, pastor turned real estate leader turned author of The Uncaged Leader, to unpack the hidden programming running underneath every decision we make. Lucas shares the moment his eighth-grade daughter's question exposed what was really driving his near-collapse in 2008, and the framework he now teaches leaders to help them see what they can't see in themselves. Together, they dig into why "the market" is almost never the real problem, how our own preferences quietly make decisions for us before we're even aware of it, and why the question "who must I become" matters more than "what must I do." It's the Lion and Lamb methodology in action: the strength to lead boldly, paired with the humility to actually look inward. In this episode, we unpack: — The Harvard study on self-awareness that should unsettle every leader — The basketball gym moment that changed how Lucas saw his own business — The 5-second formula for practicing the pause before you react — The leadership archetypes keeping high-performers caged — How Lucas took a Kansas City brokerage from #6 to #1 in two years Lucas Sherraden is the author of The Uncaged Leader and a former pastor turned real estate leadership coach.
