Limitless Leadership Lounge

Britt Hunter was the number one women's basketball recruit in the country. Then her knee shattered three possessions into her first game at Duke. What happened next is not the story you would expect. This week Britt joins Jon and Coach Jim for a conversation about resilience, curiosity, and what she now tells the 14 to 24-year-olds she works with about the habits you build in your lowest moments being the ones that carry you through the next one. Her story starts later than you think it does,

"This should have just been an email." If your team has ever thought that, this episode is for you. This week Jon and Coach Jim go solo to break down the four types of meetings every leader needs to understand: the one-on-one, the leadership team meeting, the full staff meeting, and the off-site.

Pat has over 500 wins, a Hall of Fame induction, and a book call

The average school superintendent lasts three years. Tom Trigg lasted nearly two decades. He also has a marriage approaching 50 years. And he spent years studying the one coach whose definition of success most leaders have heard but very few actually live by. This week Tom joins Jon and Coach Jim for a conversation about longevity, loyalty, contentment, and what it really means to build something worth staying for. If you have ever wondered whether patience and perseverance are still competiti

Every leader is a public speaker whether they think of themselves as one or not. Every team meeting, every one-on-one, every moment you stand in front of your people and try to move them toward something — that is public speaking. And most leaders were never taught how to do it. This week Jon and Coach Jim break down Coach's S.P.E.A.C. formula: five letters, five keys, and a framework that works whether you are on a stage in front of thousands or in a conference room with four people.
