What happens when something won’t leave you alone?
A story. A question. A burden. An opportunity. A recurring tension.
Most leaders immediately ask:
"What do I do?"
But what if the better question is:
"What is this?"
In this episode of Crafted Clarity, Steve Muscato explores the story of Nathan "Nearest" Green, Jack Daniel, and entrepreneur Fawn Weaver, founder of Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey, to uncover a different perspective on leadership, stewardship, and significance.
This isn’t a story about whiskey.
It’s a story about what happens when someone encounters something worth understanding and chooses to stay with it.
Together, we’ll explore a leadership pattern many of us miss:
Notice.
Stay.
Understand.
Steward.
Because sometimes the things that won’t leave us alone aren’t distractions.
They’re invitations.
