Description

You can't pour from an empty cup—and you definitely can't lead from one. In this gut-check episode, we unpack the first principle of the Sherpa Code: owning your responsibility to be the healthiest person on your team. Mental, physical, emotional, and even financial health aren't indulgences; they're leadership non-negotiables. It's time to shift from reactionary firefighting to intentional rhythm-building.

Team Conversation Prompts:

  1. Where in your life are you just “getting through” instead of leading with margin?
  2. Ask a teammate or family member: Where do you think I’m giving too much and asking too little?
  3. What part of your daily rhythm feels most reactionary—and what would it take to regain control?
