In Part 1, Brett Myles shared his incredible journey of faith, obedience, and finding the courage to leave what was comfortable. We talked about identity, calling, assignment, and what happens when God begins stirring your heart toward something new.

But here's the question every leader eventually faces:

Once you've stepped into that new season, how do you lead well?

The reality is that most leadership challenges aren't caused by a lack of intelligence, experience, or effort. They're caused by blind spots—things we can't see about ourselves, our leadership style, or the culture we're creating around us.

Many leaders think they're communicating clearly, supporting their teams, and building trust, while the people around them are experiencing something completely different.

In this episode, Brett and I dive deep into what may be the most important leadership skill of all: self-awareness.

We'll explore why activity doesn't always equal progress, how perfectionism can secretly hold leaders back, why culture problems are often symptoms of deeper issues, and how the best leaders balance both support and challenge to help their teams grow.

You'll also hear Brett unpack one of the most powerful leadership frameworks I've encountered—the Support and Challenge Matrix—and why understanding how people experience you may be the key to unlocking the full potential of your team.

If you've ever wondered why communication breaks down, why trust is difficult to build, or why good people sometimes leave organizations, this conversation is for you.

Because often the biggest obstacle to growth isn't what we can see.

It's the leader's blind spot.
