Welcome to How Leaders Lead where every week you get to listen in while I interview some of the very best leaders in the world.

That's what this podcast is all about. Well, February is American Heart Month,

and I got to say, is something so many of us already have on our minds after seeing Buffalo

Bill's safety, DeMar Hamlin, go into cardiac arrest in week 17 of the NFL. I don't know about

and she knows how to leverage that passion in order to drive change and action. Now, that's a skill

every great leader needs to master. So let's get to it.

Here's my conversation with my good friend and soon to be yours, Dr. Holly Anderson.

Holly, you were raised in Hamburg, New York, which is 10 minutes away from where the Buffalo Bills play.

I know you're a big-time Bills fan, and you've endured four consecutive Super Bowl losses in the 90s.

Do you ever think they'll win a Super Bowl?

It's so hard to be a Bills fan. And yes, four years in a row was very
