471: Becoming a Potent Leader with Ruby ...

HAL ELROD
About this episode

Today, I'm inviting you to eavesdrop on an extraordinary conversation that I just had with Ruby Fremon, my friend and author of the new book, Potent Leadership: Drop the Mast, Ignite the Real You, and Reclaim the Leader Within. 

While there are many online "influencers" who claim to be leaders and show off their fancy lifestyles on social media, Ruby has made a name for herself by embodying a rare level of authenticity and courage (what she calls "potency") in how she leads. In fact, as you'll hear today, it was one of her bold social media posts that inspired me to reach out and invite her to be a guest on the podcast! 

It takes tremendous courage to rise above that noise and own your voice, but it's crucial if you want to unleash your unique leadership abilities and make a significant impact on the world. 

In our conversation, Ruby shares her powerful concept of Potent Leadership. She shows us how we can apply it in our own lives, starting from how we talk to ourselves, when interacting with others, or running our businesses. You'll discover why traditional notions of leadership are often flawed and learn what it takes to be a potent leader in today's world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • How to foster unity in a culture that promotes division.
  • Maintaining composure when facing online attacks.
  • Authentic leadership starts from the heart, not from the ego.
  • Avoiding falling into the trap of leading for popularity and likes.
  • The differences between leading with intention vs. leading for attention.
