What Breaks When You Try to Sound Responsible (Jimi Gibson) | 373

You are doing the job right.
 But your words are starting to slip.

Meetings sound fine. Decisions take longer.
People nod, then hesitate.

You wonder if it’s ego. Or doubt.
Or if you are slowly losing the room.

Jimi Gibson was asked to become the public voice of a company he didn’t found.
In one meeting, a single sentence landed flat.
Nothing broke out loud.
But authority cracked.

Most leaders try to smooth that moment away.
That is when trust starts thinning.

Press play to hear why the tension you want gone
is the same thing that keeps your voice sharp
and how to catch the moment before it costs you.

ABOUT THE PODCAST

You were built for speed.
But right now you feel slower than you look on paper.
Most founders try to outwork that slow-down.
It only burns them out.
Your mind is the only machine your company doesn’t upgrade.
So leaders keep pushing against the wrong thing.
