🎙️ A New Swing for a New Season of Leadership

In this episode, Roger sits down with longtime friend and seasoned executive Vince Burens to explore the journey of leadership including that moment every leader eventually faces: the realization that their old “swing” no longer produces the results it once did.

Vince shares about being identified early as a high-achieving leader, the insecurities that shaped his early career, and the painful but essential transition from achievement-driven leadership to wisdom-driven leadership.

Together, Roger and Vince discuss:

• Why early success can mask blind spots that catch up later
• The role of trusted voices who hold up “true mirrors”
• How self-sabotage shows up in even the most capable leaders
• The freedom that comes from redefining the scoreboard
• How your next season of leadership requires a new swing

This conversation offers clarity, honesty, encouragement, and a roadmap for leaders ready to grow beyond performance and into deeper impact.
