What Is REAL Leadership? Lessons From A 3 Star General
RANK DOESN’T MAKE YOU A LEADER. CHARACTER DOES!What does TRUE leadership look like when lives are on the line?Is leadership about the rank on your chest, the title on your business card, or the number of people who report to you?Or is it about something much deeper?🎙️ On this powerful episode of the Vertical Momentum Resiliency Podcast, I sit down with retired U.S. Army Lieutenant General Mark Hertling, a combat-tested leader who spent 38 years serving our nation.From commanding the legendary 1st Armored Division during the Iraq War to leading U.S. Army forces across Europe, General Hertling knows what it means to make difficult decisions, develop leaders, and carry the responsibility of command.But here’s what makes his story even more powerful.After leaving the battlefield, he took those hard-earned leadership lessons into hospitals, boardrooms, and classrooms, proving that TRUE LEADERSHIP ISN’T ABOUT POWER. IT’S ABOUT PEOPLE.We explore the meaning of authentic leadership, character, accountability, resilience, mentorship, and why earning trust matters more than demanding respect.Whether you’re a veteran, entrepreneur, business owner, first responder, or someone simply trying to become a better leader for your family, this conversation is for YOU.You don’t need three stars on your shoulders to make a difference in someone’s life.You just need the courage to lead by example.YOUR MISSION: Listen to this episode, subscribe to the Vertical Momentum Resiliency Podcast, and share it with one person who needs to hear what true leadership really means.🌐 VerticalMomentumPodcast.comBecause Comeback Stories Are Contagious!To Get Mark’s New Book 📖 https://www.amazon.com/If-Dont-Return-Fathers-Wartime/dp/B0GRWSFPRD/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?adgrpid=157002325182&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.cWf06defxJS3tqY-oUBOnfJZB8QGQ89Od_jJMkM45cX3XMs8Id_d5ow7ygXgCKGzlS3obQ1ZWA0LQRDf56hwSg.eQGj17_Z4FpA06qUiTLuEYq-WF37ehoEISvRU7QupK0&dib_tag=se&hvadid=713606170037&hvdev=m&hvexpln=68&hvlocphy=9003489&hvnetw=g&hvocijid=4167120253935470041--&hvqmt=e&hvrand=4167120253935470041&hvtargid=kwd-2188882931943&hydadcr=15176_13754956&keywords=mark+hertling+book&mcid=4bb581eef05d3734b726a6b0a193ac9c&qid=1791488748&sr=8-1☕ GREAT LEADERSHIP STARTS WITH GREAT COFFEE!This episode of the Vertical Momentum Resiliency Podcast is proudly sponsored by Bilge Brew Coffee Co., a veteran-owned company that knows the mission doesn’t end when the uniform comes off!🇺🇸 Support those who served while fueling YOUR next mission!🔥 Use code VERTICAL10 for 10% OFF your order at www.BilgeBrew.com.Bilge Brew Coffee — Fueling the Mission, One Cup at a Time!#Leadership #MilitaryLeadership #LeadershipDevelopment

How To Start Over And Win With Max Konan
HOW TO START OVER AND WIN 🏆 | MAX KONANWhat do you do when life takes away the plan you thought you were supposed to follow?You start over.On this powerful episode of the Vertical Momentum Resiliency Podcast, I sit down with author, entrepreneur, speaker, and CEO Max Konan, a man whose life is living proof that where you start does NOT have to determine where you finish.Born in Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa, Max survived a traumatic childhood accident that changed the course of his life. He faced physical challenges, hearing loss, grief, scarcity, cultural barriers, and eventually the challenge of coming to America and rebuilding his life again.But Max refused to allow what he lacked to determine what he could become.From working late-night jobs cleaning clubs and washing dishes to becoming a special-education teacher, entrepreneur, CEO, and author of Start Over to Win, Max learned something that every person facing adversity needs to hear:Sometimes starting over isn’t losing. It’s your opportunity to rebuild differently.In this conversation, Max shares the principles behind his B.R.A.V.E. Framework, how to turn scarcity into strategy, overcome setbacks, stop waiting for perfect conditions, find opportunity in what you already have, and take action when life forces you to hit RESET.We also talk about resilience, leadership, purpose, overcoming the odds, and why your greatest setback may become the foundation for your greatest comeback.If you’re rebuilding after failure…Starting a new career…Recovering from loss…Building a business with limited resources…Or simply wondering, “Is it too late for me to start again?”You need to hear this conversation.Your circumstances don’t get the final word.Your setbacks don’t get the final word.And your story isn’t over.🎙️ Listen to How to Start Over and Win with Max Konan on the Vertical Momentum Resiliency Podcast.➡️ Subscribe.

How To Buy Back Your Time With George Rivera
WHAT IF THE BUSINESS YOU BUILT TO GIVE YOU FREEDOM… IS ACTUALLY STEALING YOUR LIFE?On this powerful episode of the Vertical Momentum Resiliency Podcast, I sit down with entrepreneur, author, and creator of the Buy Back Time Formula, George Rivera, to talk about something every entrepreneur, leader, and high achiever needs to hear.George spent nearly 30 years building businesses, including multiple eight-figure companies and a supplement business that generated more than $250 MILLION.But success came with a price.Long hours. Stress. Exhaustion. And precious moments with his family he could never get back.Then his father gave him a message that changed everything:“Don’t miss Leo’s games.”That wake-up call forced George to redefine what SUCCESS really means.Today, he teaches entrepreneurs how to stop being the bottleneck, eliminate low-value work, automate what they can, delegate outcomes instead of just tasks, and build systems that allow the business to grow WITHOUT sacrificing their health, family, or life.Because you can always make another dollar.You cannot make another minute.If your business owns YOU instead of you owning your business, this conversation could change the way you work, and the way you live.🎙️ Listen now.
