Show Notes

Surfacing what matters most to you that doesn’t yet exist takes a lot of self-inquiry. In answering all of the questions so far, Jonathan has delved deep with courage and tenacity. He has a vision, and now has to turn his focus away from himself onto those who can help him realize it. In this episode, he discovers some of what’s involved in leading them. Leadership is not for the faint of heart. So before we move forward into “Amplifying” his vision, he’s asked one more time to reconfirm his commitment to igniting it.
