What if the way you manage your time, energy, and resources is shaping your entire company culture?

In this soul-first conversation, Benj and McKenzie sit down to explore the hidden mindset behind great leadership: abundance vs. scarcity. This isn’t just a theory. It’s a lens that could reframe how you hire, delegate, invest, and even walk into your next meeting.

Benj opens up about his lived experience as an Enneagram Five, where hoarding energy felt like a survival strategy. He shares how that scarcity mindset once showed up in his leadership and what changed when he shifted toward generosity, trust, and abundance. McKenzie brings the operator’s view, showing how systems-thinking can quickly tip into control and fear without intention.

Inside this Soul Dive:

• The myth of limited energy and how it sabotages team growth
• What a scarcity mindset really looks like in meetings, decisions, and relationships
• How leaders unintentionally withhold ideas, tools, or praise — and what it costs
• The ripple effect of one brave share and how it unlocks a team’s potential
• Why gratitude and generosity are more than emotions — they are leadership strategies
• How to shift the energy in the room with one question: What mindset am I bringing in today?

You’ll hear honest reflections, small but powerful mindset shifts, and a deeper invitation to show up as a leader who multiplies, not manages.

This episode is for anyone who has ever felt the tension between conserving and contributing, between self-protection and impact. If you’ve been leading from caution, this is your permission to try something different.

Because abundance isn’t just a feeling. It’s a decision. And when leaders make that shift, everything else starts to flow.

You don’t have to wait for more time, more budget, or more certainty. The invitation is here. Step into abundance today.

What if the two most important leadership lessons aren’t about strategy... but about how you show up in a room?

In this Hot Takes episode of Sessions with System & Soul, Benj Miller and McKenzie Reeves Decker unpack two game-changing insights from leaders who have actually built legendary companies.

🔥 Bill Campbell, the trusted coach behind Apple and Google, believed success starts with something most leaders overlook:

“Get your 1:1s and team meetings right, and everything else will follow.”
When relationships are strong, results follow. Simple. Powerful. Overlooked.

🔥 Then comes Leila Hormozi, powerhouse CEO of Acquisition.com, with a hard truth:

“Only 5% of your team will be ready for your company’s next chapter.”
So what do you do with that reality?
Avoid it? Hide it? Or lead with clarity, even when it's uncomfortable?

🎙️ Inside this episode:

Why most teams underperform and how to change that fast
What the top 5% of high-growth team members all have in common
How founders unknowingly stall their growth
How to lead people through change without losing trust
And why your systems should protect your culture, not just your KPIs
