  1. 🚨 #425--Why Good Leaders Avoid Tough Conversations 🎙️🔥 Eric Twiggs and Ted Fells 1:01:37

Most leadership failures don’t happen because leaders lack talent.

They happen because leaders avoid the conversation they know they need to have.

💡 Why do smart, capable, well-intentioned leaders stay silent when it matters most?

On this episode of The 30 Minute Hour Podcast, we’re joined by Virginia State Delegate Jackie Glass—leader, civic entrepreneur, and co-host of Your Neighbor’s Hood—for a powerful discussion about the courage to tackle the conversations most people avoid.

You’ll discover:

✅ Why avoiding difficult conversations damages trust.

✅ How to navigate discussions around race, culture, and leadership with confidence.

✅ The mindset every leader needs to unite people instead of dividing them.

✅ Practical strategies for leading through disagreement and conflict.

Whether you lead a business, a team, a community, or your own Family, this conversation will challenge you to become the kind of leader people trust when the stakes are highest.
