Yes Isn’t Always The Best Answer…

That "L" Word

A “Yes” to something that doesn’t serve you can mean a silent “No” to something that is important in your life. In this episode, Jody and Morgon explore the difference between doing something because you want to do it versus something you feel obligated to do. For every action there is a reaction and it’s often our personal well-being that suffers from saying “Yes” when we really want to say “No.”

Jody is an Executive Coach and Consultant who loves working with leaders to increase their self-awareness so they can build an amazing organizational culture that no one could imagine leaving. Jody served in the Navy with small, highly elite, Reconnaissance and Special Operations teams for 20 years, and the last decade of his three-decade military career, advising two-star and three-star General Officers with organizations of more than 45k people.

Morgon is known best as, “The Peoples Coach.” He coaches athletes, executives and leaders with an emphasis on knowing and loving themselves first. His leadership and people skills were developed over two decades in the United States Marine Corps but Morgon has taken that passion and knowledge beyond his service. Morgon developed his coaching style after realizing his athletes needed more than just a workout and nutrition plan - they needed to be seen as people first. Morgon coaches executives and leaders the same way he coaches athletes, as people - not titles, so they can be successful in whatever they endeavor.

Jody and Morgon share a passion for leadership, love and people. “That L Word” is their brainchild born over the best Mexican food downtown Jacksonville, NC has to offer and is meant to evoke the word, “Love” in the same conversation as, “Leadership.” We believe that leadership and love belong in the same sentence and aren’t afraid to cut past the bullshit and talk about what really matters.

On “That L Word” we talk about love, empathy, trust, loyalty, listening, life, and ALL of the other things that people are afraid to say out loud in the same sentence with leadership. Leadership is ALL about people and people have feelings, leaders included - so get in here! Sit down and let’s talk about the shit that might make you uncomfortable but will absolutely make you a better person and leader!
