You became a leader to make an impact, grow your team, and drive your organization forward.

But somewhere along the way, leadership started looking a lot like inbox management and calendar Tetris.

Here's what happens when you're doing it all. Your best people aren't getting your best.

They're getting whatever's left after you've handled the logistics,

chase down details, and put out fires all day.

That's not leadership. That's survival mode.

And your organization can feel the difference.

Belay's US-based executive assistance take the administrative burden off your plate so you can get back to actually leading because your team didn't sign up to work for someone who's too busy to invest in them.

They signed up for a leader with the capacity to help them grow.

Welcome to the Maxwell Leadership Podcast. My name is Mark Cole. I clapped my hands today. I don't think I've ever done that because today we're talking about joy. And Tracy, I can't wait to talk a little bit about John, but in my opinion, one of the things that I love about getting to work alongside of you and

stand on stages with you is you have an infectious joy that you operate in and

I don't know how you do it but isn't it incredible to live and lead from a place of

joy it absolutely is and I think the same thing about you as well. I think once you really do,

I'm excited to get into this lesson, but because when you really do find your deeper purpose,

and I don't want to get too ahead of us, but when you really do find your purpose, a joy just

kind of springs out of you because instead

of feeling kind of lost and trying to figure it out, you operate from a place of a full cup.

And then that's something very easy and natural, isn't it?

It is.
