Discomfort Isn’t the Enemy: How to Lead Through Challenge with Sterling Hawkins
What if the key to becoming a breakthrough leader isn’t more confidence or clarity—but more discomfort?
In this episode of The Enlightened Executive, Susan Drumm talks with Sterling Hawkins—author, keynote speaker, and founder of the “No Matter What” movement—about why the most effective leaders don’t avoid discomfort. They leverage it.

You’ll learn:
- Why discomfort is a critical ingredient in breakthrough leadership
- How to spot subtle ways you’re avoiding growth
- The neuroscience behind emotional resistance—and how to rewire it
- A powerful mindset shift from Richard Branson that changed the game
- How to build a culture where discomfort leads to innovation, not burnout
