Transformation Tip: “It’s good to learn from your mistakes. It’s better to learn from other people’s mistakes.” — Warren Buffett

What if you could fast-track your leadership growth by learning from those who’ve already been in the trenches?

In this episode, Pete Cafarchio is joined by three dynamic leaders who bring real-world insights across industries, cultures, and life experiences. From corporate boardrooms to nonprofits to global leadership initiatives, each guest shares their perspective shaped by years of navigating change, building people, and leading through complexity.

You’ll hear from:

• Greg Wallace, a leadership consultant and author focused on organizational excellence and culture
• Julie Thomas, President of a national logistics company and a seasoned coach, speaker, and business leader
• Ellie Kapihe, a leadership activator passionate about purpose-driven growth and generational impact

Together, they explore three essential pillars of leadership:
Culture. Connection. Conflict.
Not as abstract ideas—but as lived experiences that shape teams, organizations, and outcomes.

Through stories, lessons learned, and practical wisdom, this conversation challenges you to think differently about how you lead and influence others.
