🎙️ NEW EPISODE OF THE SINCLAIR PODCAST JUST DROPPED! 🎙️

What happens when you turn fear into a compass?

This week, I sit down with Susan Leblanc, marketing leader and certified coach, on how her rule “If it scares me, I have to do it” reshaped her career, leadership, and life.

In this powerful conversation, we dive into:
✅ Speaking up when it’s scary: how courage at a startup led to momentum and promotion
✅ The power of honest storytelling: a teenage letter to the editor that rebuilt a community’s income
âś… People-first leadership: situational coaching, trust, and building teams that carry each other
âś… AI without the hype: practical ways her team uses AI to scale creativity and keep marketing human
âś… Health as a strategy: sleep, routines, and why self-care makes you a better leader
✅ Purpose in finance: why Meridian’s member-first model matters for small businesses and communities

Raw, insightful, and packed with lessons for leaders at every stage.
