Have you ever wondered why success sometimes feels like a game of dodgeball, with distractions flying at you from every direction? Join me in this episode as I interview Craig Groeschel, New York Times bestselling author, and the founder and senior pastor of Life.Church, which created the free YouVersion Bible App.

From battling the boss called pride to building a fortress of accountability, Craig's insights are pure gold. Plus, we'll explore decision-making habits and the importance of thinking ahead. So grab your pen and notebook and join us for this conversation about conquering goals and crushing it in leadership!
