What if the way you speak is costing you trust?

What if you’re losing alignment, clarity, and connection, not because of what you’re saying, but how you’re saying it?

This episode goes deep into one of the biggest realizations we’ve had in business and marriage, the difference between thinking in color vs. thinking in black and white.

Chris and I share the very real, very raw process we’re working through right now:

→ How vague language created confusion in our teams

→ Why emotional storytelling doesn’t work when people need clarity

→ And how the 1 Layer Deep Framework became the outline we needed to move from chaos to real communication

This isn’t about being harsh or rigid.

It’s about removing the unnecessary, owning what you actually want, and saying it out loud.

If you’ve ever struggled to be understood, to be followed, or to feel like your team or partner really gets you, this one will shift something big.

Let’s get 1 Layer Deep.

No BS. Just the right action to get to the result.🧡

Let’s talk about the real reason you feel overwhelmed.

It’s not your team.

It’s not the task list.

It’s that you’re still answering every question. Still holding all the outcomes. Still flying in like a hero to fix what shouldn’t even land on your plate.

In this bonus chapter from the book, I talk about what it means to be a helicopter owner, and why so many founders end up building businesses that rely entirely on them, even when they think they’ve delegated.

I share my own wake-up call, the day I realized I was Wendy, and how I had to stop being the answer to everything if I wanted to actually scale.

This isn’t about micromanaging. It’s about identity.

And if all roads still lead to you, you need to hear this.

Christy Honeycutt has coached hundreds of executives. She’s worked inside fast-moving organizations, led high-performing teams, and sat across from decision-makers who are burned out but can’t say it out loud.

She’s not just a leadership coach, she's someone who understands what it feels like to lead when you're not okay.

In this episode, we sat down for a raw conversation about what happens when you’re carrying more responsibility than authority. When you’re the one holding it all together, but no one’s holding space for you.

We talk about why burnout in leadership looks different, how trust is built and broken inside teams, and why so many people are walking away from roles that once lit them up.

If you’ve ever felt like your voice doesn’t match your responsibility, or like the pressure to perform is costing you something deeper, this episode will meet you right where you are.
