  • 197 | Stop Selling. Start Storytelling. – Jim Kohlhardt
    2026/07/20
    Stop Selling. Start Storytelling. In this episode of The Impact of Leadership Podcast, Patrick Booth sits down with Jim Kohlhardt, President & CEO of Saturn Lounge, for a powerful conversation about faith, purpose, leadership, and why authentic storytelling is the future of marketing. Jim shares his personal journey—from being adopted as a newborn to navigating career uncertainty and ultimately discovering that success means little if you don't believe in what you're selling. Together, they explore how AI is reshaping business, why so many marketing efforts fail, and what separates organizations that build trust from those that simply create noise. The key message is simple: People don't connect with what you do nearly as much as they connect with why you do it. If you're a leader, entrepreneur, business owner, or marketer looking to build deeper relationships, communicate your mission more effectively, and grow through authenticity, this episode is for you.

  • 196 | Is EOS Too Rigid? Let’s Discuss – Hani Malek
    2026/07/06
    If you listened to Part 1, you got the foundation. You heard what EOS is, how it works, and why so many companies are using it to bring clarity and structure into their business. But now… We’re going to get real. Because here’s the truth—everything we talked about in Part 1 sounds great… until you actually have to live it. Until you’re the one being asked to: • Let go of control • Trust your team in ways you’re not comfortable with • Sit in meetings that demand accountability • And follow a system that, at times, can feel… restrictive And I’ll be honest with you… That’s where I’ve struggled. So in this episode, I’m doing something a little different. I’m not just hosting—I’m pushing back. I’m asking the questions that every CEO, every visionary, every leader is thinking but doesn’t always say out loud. Questions like: • Is EOS too rigid? • What happens when your team doesn’t fully buy in? • What if you don’t have the right people yet? • And am I—the leader—the one actually getting in the way? We get into delegation and the reality of letting go… we talk about fear, ego, and why leaders hold onto things way longer than they should… and we unpack what it really looks like to build a business that doesn’t depend on you for everything. So if Part 1 helped you understand EOS… Part 2 is going to challenge you. And I’ll tell you right now—this is where it clicked for me.

  • 195 | EOS Done Right vs. Done Wrong – Hani Malek
    2026/06/22
    If you’ve ever felt like your business should be further along than it is… like you’re busy all day, solving problems, putting out fires… but somehow still not getting the results you know are possible—this episode is for you. Today’s conversation is a special one for me… because I’m not just bringing on a guest—I’m bringing on someone who has had a direct impact on how I lead, how I run our business, and honestly, how I think about growth. Joining me is Hani Malek, EOS Implementer, coach, mentor—and for me personally, someone who has helped shine a light on the gaps I didn’t even realize were holding us back. Now, if you’ve heard of EOS—the Entrepreneurial Operating System—you might think it’s just another framework, another business buzzword. But I can tell you firsthand… when done right, it’s not just a system—it’s a way to bring clarity, accountability, and alignment to your entire organization. And when done wrong… well, we’re going to talk about that too. In this first part of the conversation, Hani breaks down: • What EOS actually is (in simple, practical terms) • Why so many businesses hit a ceiling—and how to break through it • The difference between doing EOS and actually living it • And how roles like visionary and integrator can either create friction… or become rocket fuel for growth But more importantly, you’re going to get to know the man behind the expertise—his story, his faith, and the experiences that shaped how he helps leaders like you and me build stronger businesses and better lives. So if you’re a business owner, a CEO, or a leader who knows there’s more in the tank—but just hasn’t quite unlocked it yet… You’re going to want to lean into this one.

  • 194 | Let Faith Grow & Fear Go – Ben Hinton
    2026/06/07
    What if the hardest things you’ve walked through… weren’t setbacks at all? What if they were preparation? This is Part 2 with Ben Hinton—a husband, a father of two amazing daughters, and a man whose life has been shaped by resilience, surrender, and deep faith. Ben is the founder of Let Faith Grow™, a discipleship-driven brand launched in 2025 that’s helping individuals and families build daily, Christ-centered practices. He’s also the author of “Let Faith Grow: Running Through Adversity,” released in 2023—a powerful testament to overcoming life’s toughest challenges. But Ben’s story didn’t start with a book… or a platform… or a speaking stage. It started in the middle of real life. Born in Colorado, raised in Pittsburgh… a competitor, a basketball player, someone who chased identity in performance and recognition—just like many of us. And then… adversity hit early. At 11 years old, Ben lost vision in his right eye. Later, at 26… a traumatic brain injury changed everything. His abilities shifted. His future became uncertain. And for a season, even the most basic things—like reading—became a daily challenge. But here’s what makes this conversation so powerful: Ben didn’t just go through adversity… he chose how to respond to it. Instead of asking, “Why me?” He began to ask, “What is God preparing me for?” And today, that journey has led him into his purpose. In 2025, he stepped fully into that calling— joining the C-Suites for Christ speakers bureau, partnering with organizations like Bold Brave Me and the Christian Entertainment Network, and creating daily devotionals for believers in the marketplace. This is a conversation about choosing faith over fear… about letting go of comfort to rise into purpose… and about what it really means to run your race full circle—not just in circles. We talk about: • How God uses past struggles to prepare us for future calling • Why identity in Christ anchors everything • And how even something like “LFG” can be redefined from the world’s message… …to something eternal: Let Faith Grow. Let Fear Go. But maybe the most powerful line you’ll hear in this episode is this: “I would rather hear the whisper of the Lord… than the roar of the world.” In a world full of noise, pressure, and distractions… that choice changes everything. So if you’ve ever felt like your story doesn’t make sense… or your struggle doesn’t have purpose… Part 2 is where things start to come full circle.

  • 193 | Obedience Before Results – Ben Hinton
    2026/05/26
    What happens when the results you’ve built your life on suddenly disappear? In Part 1 of this powerful conversation, Patrick sits down with Ben Hinton, founder of Let Faith Grow, to unpack a story that challenges everything we believe about success, identity, and control. At just 26 years old, Ben experienced a traumatic brain injury that stripped away his abilities, confidence, and sense of identity. What followed wasn’t just physical recovery—it was a spiritual awakening. Together, they explore what it really means to live differently in a world obsessed with outcomes: Choosing obedience over results Finding identity in Christ instead of performance Slowing down in a culture that rewards constant speed This isn’t just a conversation about faith—it’s about transformation. If you’ve ever felt stuck chasing results… If your identity has been tied to your performance… Or if God is calling you to slow down and trust Him in a new way… This episode will challenge you to rethink what winning actually looks like. Because following Christ is one thing— but being formed by Christ is something entirely different.

  • 192 | I Failed As A Dad – Patrick Booth
    2026/05/11
    Leadership lessons don’t always come from boardrooms, P&L meetings, or strategy sessions—sometimes they show up in rental cars, airport lines, and moments where everything feels like it’s falling apart. In this episode, Patrick Booth shares a candid, funny, and humbling story from a family trip to Costa Rica that quickly turned into a real‑time leadership test. From navigating stressful roads to standing in broken airport systems, Patrick reflects on how unmanaged stress, passivity, and emotional decision‑making impacted the people closest to him—and what leaders can learn from it. This episode is honest, relatable, and deeply practical for leaders at work and at home. It’s a reminder that leadership is always on display—and that growth often happens when humility meets grace.

  • 191 | What Is Your One Thing? – Patrick Booth
    2026/04/27
    “What is your one thing?” Not the church answer. Not the leadership answer. The real one. Patrick opens up about the “one things” that quietly take God’s place—power, approval, comfort, image, control, achievement, even helping—and how each one has shaped his leadership at CCB and his life at home. Through honest stories, spiritual conviction, and a season of deep surrender, he reveals how God has been dismantling self‑reliance and rebuilding trust. You’ll hear how recent leadership storms pushed him to the edge, how God whispered “Trust Me” when clarity felt out of reach, and why surrender isn’t weakness… it’s freedom. If you’ve been gripping too tightly, planning too compulsively, or carrying weight you were never meant to hold, this episode will meet you right where you are. Your one thing is shaping your life—whether you admit it or not. This conversation will help you name it… release it… and let the Spirit lead.
