Be the Cheerleader Your Team Needs

As a business owner, you wear a lot of hats but one of the most important (and most overlooked) is cheerleader. I learned that firsthand recently when I noticed a dip in my team’s performance and realized the problem wasn’t their skill or effort, it was my leadership.

In this episode of The Unfiltered Sessions Podcast, I share a raw behind-the-scenes story of working with one of my team members who was struggling with confidence while building our VA Training Academy. Through that experience, I rediscovered the power of encouragement, tough love, and belief in your people.

You’ll learn:
✅ Why your team’s performance often mirrors your level of encouragement
✅ How to balance accountability with empathy
✅ The power of reminding people why you chose them for their role
✅ How personal challenges affect workplace performance and what to do about it
✅ Simple words that can reignite your team’s confidence

If your team’s energy feels off or performance is slipping, this episode is your reminder: sometimes the best leadership move isn’t pushing harder, it's cheering louder.
