Hello fabulous!

Get ready for some real talk about leadership. In this episode of Developing the Leader Within, host Enrique Acosta Gonzalez sits down with Alex Ramos, the founder of Lead Without Fear, an Air Force vet, and all-around awesome leadership coach. The guys reflect a bit on September 11th, share some heartfelt military stories, and then roll up their sleeves to break down what makes a truly great leader (hint: it’s not what’s on your resume). 

Alex dishes out gems on making leadership personal, being a lifelong student, and why self-care is a non-negotiable if you want to keep Burnout at bay. He shares his signature “three P’s” for building resilience and talks about how self-awareness is basically a superpower for leaders. Plus, don’t miss Alex’s story about a general who made safety briefings actually inspiring (yes, really). Whether you’re managing a team, thinking about your own Growth, or just want to hear about leadership from people who’ve lived it, this episode is packed with energy, insight, and plenty of encouragement.  Tune in, laugh, reflect, and get ready to unleash your own inner leader!

This episode is part of our marathon of the 50 Over 50 Podcaster award winners. This marathon is going to continue for another week or so, and then we will be back to our regularly scheduled programming.
