Leadership comes with responsibility, pressure, and often—silence. Too many leaders carry the weight of decisions, expectations, and challenges on their own. In this episode, I open up about my own journey with the weight of leadership: the anxiety of feeling like it’s all on your shoulders, the battles with ego and doubt, and the toll it can take when you don’t share the load.

We’ll also dive into the real-world consequences of carrying it all yourself—burnout, strained relationships, isolation—and why awareness is the first step to relief. I’ll leave you with five reflection prompts to help you identify what you’re carrying and where the pressure comes from.

This is the first step in a series on leadership. Today is about awareness. Next time, we’ll dig into how to lighten the load, delegate, and reframe leadership challenges into opportunities for growth.

Scott Casso joins JP Warren to talk leadership, burnout, and building trust.

From leading teams to facing pressure as a founder, Scott opens up about the real challenges leaders face behind the scenes — and why communication, self-awareness, and connection matter more than ever.

This isn’t surface-level leadership. It’s about showing up, handling the hard stuff, and learning how to lead with more than just a title.
