Some of the best leadership lessons don't come from a script. They come from your questions.

Thousands of you sent questions in during Season 2 of John Maxwell's 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, so before we kick off Season 3, I sat down to answer them. No prep. Just my raw unfiltered answers.

I go deep on how to sell a dream so big that everyone on your team can see their own dreams inside it. How to carry real confidence without losing your humility, and one of the toughest questions I've been asked in a long time: what do you do when you're leading from underneath someone who feels threatened by you?

I open up about servant leadership, about letting go of the need for credit, and about why I stopped micromanaging a long time ago.

Then Max, my son, asked me how to get ready for the leader's legacy, and that's where it got personal. Having my son sitting across from me while I talked about what really lasts made this one hit different. I think you'll feel it too.

At the end of your life, you won't be sitting around with your trophies. You'll be sitting around with your people. That's the legacy, and that's why I want you to hear this one.

Season 3 of John Maxwell's 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership is dropping next Thursday! Click the link to download the free workbook, and send in your own question for the next Q&A.

You can't change yesterday's newspaper, so why are you still carrying it around?



I have wanted to sit down with this man for so long. Imagine going from living in your car to building two multibillion dollar brands. It doesn't even sound real when you say it out loud. But that's not what I admire most about him. It's how he carries the success: with humility, generosity and kindness. So today I got out of the way and let him teach.



I've interviewed some of the top entrepreneurs on the planet, and I don't know that I've ever met a better communicator. This conversation is a masterclass, and I'm fired up for you to hear it.



John Paul DeJoria is the co-founder of John Paul Mitchell Systems and Patrón Spirits Company. He started Paul Mitchell with $700 and lived in his car to make it happen. Then he built Patrón into a brand selling millions of cases a year.



Here's what you'll gain from this episode:

The Two Rules of Success: two rules to live by if you want to see more success in every area of your life.

You Can't Change Yesterday's Newspaper: Why he wouldn't change a single thing about the hard times, and how to move forward after hardship

Watch Your Words: Why saying "I'll try" keeps you trying forever, and how to break the pattern.

The Richest Man's Regret: What John Paul DeJoria said he would give up just to have been happy, and what that says about money.

Kindness Works, Even for Jerks: How humor and kindness disarms, and why you should never knock your competitor.



Whatever you're still carrying from yesterday, consider this your permission to put it down. I don't want you to just listen to this one. I want you to feel it, then go live it.

What if the success you’re chasing is actually keeping you from enjoying the life you’ve worked so hard to build?

In this mashup, we’re going straight at something I think every ambitious person needs to hear: the danger of becoming addicted to achievement. I want you to win. I want you to build the business, make the money, transform your body, impact people, and chase every dream God put in your heart. But if your happiness is always waiting on the other side of the next goal, you can spend your entire life achieving and never actually feel fulfilled. The answer isn’t to stop chasing greatness. It’s learning how to fall in love with the PROCESS while you’re becoming great.

Fallon Taylor opens up about what happened after she finally became a world champion and discovered that catching the dream didn’t magically fix everything. Her answer became growth and contribution, continuing to evolve while using what she learned to serve other people. Inky Johnson takes that idea even deeper with one of the most powerful definitions of courage I’ve heard: committing to the process when nobody can guarantee you the outcome. After his injury, he learned to stop needing the reward to justify the work and instead let his character, integrity, and commitment determine how he showed up.

Matthew McConaughey breaks down the difference between happiness and JOY, and why constantly moving the finish line can rob you of both. He shares how some of the greatest results of his career came when he stopped obsessing over the result and became completely immersed in the work. Dean Graziosi reminds us that money and achievement without fulfillment aren’t enough, and that we need to work on ourselves just as hard as we work on our businesses and our bank accounts. Inky comes back with another lesson I love: be where your feet are. Take the pictures. Have the fun. Build the memories. Don’t become so good at accomplishing things that you forget to actually EXPERIENCE your own life.

Then Rob Dyrdek gives you a masterclass on intentionally DESIGNING your life instead of simply cramming more into it. He breaks down how tracking his time, eliminating friction, creating systems, and constantly optimizing his schedule allowed him to accomplish more while protecting the parts of his life that bring him joy. Jesse Itzler brings it home with the courage to START before you’re ready. He built businesses in industries he knew almost nothing about because he trusted himself to get through the door and figure it out. His reminder is simple: you will never have enough experience, perfect timing, or every answer before you begin. And real success isn’t dominating one area of your life while everything else falls apart. It’s building winning habits across ALL the buckets that matter.

Key Takeaways:

Why achievement can become an addiction and quietly steal your happiness

Fallon Taylor on finding fulfillment through growth and contribution after reaching the top

Inky Johnson on choosing process over product and committing without a guarantee of success

Matthew McConaughey on why joy is found in the doing, not at the finish line

Dean Graziosi on building yourself while you build your success

Why being present, having fun, and creating memories are part of a successful life

Rob Dyrdek’s approach to designing, tracking, and optimizing your time around the life you actually want

Jesse Itzler on starting before you’re ready and making yourself irreplaceable

Why true success means winning across multiple areas of your life, not just money or career

I want you to chase your dreams with everything you’ve got, but don’t miss your LIFE while you’re chasing them. Stop telling yourself, “When I get there, then I’ll be happy.” There will always be another mountain, another goal, another number, another finish line. The joy is in the ride. The fulfillment is in who you become and the people you impact along the way. Chase greatness, but make sure you’re actually alive enough to enjoy becoming great.

The best leaders want more FOR people than they want FROM them.



Season 2 of John Maxwell's 21 Laws of Leadership is in the books, and this one belongs to you. When you downloaded the workbook, you sent in your leadership questions, and over 10 thousand of them came in! John Maxwell and I went through them, and we answered the themes that kept coming up again and again.



My son Max brought your questions to the table, and what came out of the conversation is real, unscripted, and personal. Here are some of the questions you sent in:

What is the biggest problem with how people lead today?

What is the biggest thing you had to unlearn to level up your leadership?

How do you lead when nobody is listening?

How does a wife support her husband in becoming a better leader?

John has spent more than fifty years living what he teaches, and he has stood on a stage more than 14,000 times. He isn't polished about it. He tells you plainly about the seasons he led badly, and where he learned to look first when people stop listening.



I open up about the way I led in my twenties and the day I decided to talk less and ask more. I share the story of a ride home that changed how I see belief inside a marriage. I ask John a question I've never asked him, and his answer surprised even me.



The chemistry in this one is something you have to witness. We go back and forth like family around a kitchen table. Tune in to this powerful episode and then take the answer that hits you hardest and put it to work this week.

Customers come and go. Fans will drive 40 hours just to be in the room with you.



I've wanted Jesse Cole on this show for a long time, and this conversation went further than I hoped. More than 4 million people are on a waitlist for a ticket to one of his games. He's drawn crowds bigger than the Super Bowl. And he's done it by obsessing over the thing I believe matters most as AI moves into every business: how people feel when they deal with you.



This was not an overnight success. Jesse's pro baseball dream ended with a torn shoulder. He spent ten years running a team almost nobody came to see. Then he and his wife, Emily, bet everything on a college summer team in Savannah, and in the first three months, they sold two tickets. What happened next became the Banana Ball Championship League and one of the great American business stories.



I asked him the question every entrepreneur in a hard season needs answered: why didn't you quit? I share what it felt like when my own baseball dream ended. I push back on founders who build companies just to sell them, and I explain why most big exits aren't what they look like. And I challenge Jesse on what separates great entrepreneurs: they keep improving even when everything is already working.



We finish with what Jesse and Emily are building off the field, and it may be the most powerful part of the whole conversation.



Here's what you'll gain from this episode:

Fans vs. Customers: Why one is transactional and the other will defend you when you make a mistake.

The Friction Question: The one question that sparked Banana Ball, and how it applies to a realtor, a dry cleaner, or any business.

Attention Beats Marketing: Why Jesse hasn't spent a dollar on marketing since opening night, and what he does instead.

The Energy List: How Jesse found what fuels him, and why it changed the way he shows up as a leader and a dad.

Lessons from Walt Disney: Two principles Jesse built his company on, including the one that explains why he won't sell.

Learn, Change, Plus: The nightly habit that keeps a sold-out business from ever getting comfortable.



Two tickets in three months. That's where this started. Whatever season you're in right now, get to the next day, then the next one. You are much closer to your dreams than you realize.
