The 3 Questions Every Leader Must Answer to Stay Grounded

In this deeply personal Soul Dive episode of Sessions with System & Soul, Benj Miller takes us back to a pivotal moment that reshaped his identity and leadership.

What started as a desperate quest for business answers transformed into a life-changing conversation about what truly grounds us as leaders and humans.

Joined by McKenzie Reeves Decker, the conversation peels back the layers of external validation and digs into the soul work that keeps us inwardly sound and others focused.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• Leadership Begins with Identity: 77% of leadership effectiveness comes from who you are, not just what you do.

• The 3 Big Questions: "Who is my audience?", "Why do I matter?", and "Who am I?" These are not just reflective, they are foundational.

• Audience Matters: You cannot let critics or fleeting circumstances sign your report card. Who holds that pen in your life?

• Worth Is Not Earned, It Is Given: A profound realization that your value is defined by what someone is willing to pay, and for Benj, that meant everything.

• From Fragile to Anchored: Building identity on solid ground prevents leadership from being derailed by toxic feedback or failure.

💬 This episode is a raw and real invitation to strip away the noise and reclaim clarity in who you are.

Whether you are deep in the trenches or just starting your leadership journey, take 18 minutes to realign with what matters most.
