Ever feel like you're crushing it on paper…but deep down, you're just waiting for someone to call you out? Like no matter how many wins you stack, there's still that whisper… “You're not enough.” “You don't deserve this. “Eventually, they'll find out.” Let's call it what it is — Imposter Syndrome. And its favorite sidekick? Shame. They're silent saboteurs — and they don't care how successful you are. They'll sneak in, steal your peace, and stall your momentum. That's why I had to bring founder of Growing Champions, John Gallagher, on the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show. John's been in the trenches — with Fortune 500 execs, elite teams, and leaders who “have it all”… but are silently drowning. This episode is raw. It's real. And it's NEEDED. …bad. So if you're tired of looking like a winner on the outside while fighting battles on the inside, and you're ready to silence the imposter voice — don't miss this episode. In this episode, you will hear: The regret-filled leadership moment that became a turning point in John Gallagher's life — and how it sparked his mission to develop Uncommon Leaders A powerful 3-step framework to help you overcome fear, take action, and lead with purpose How shame and Imposter Syndrome silently sabotage even the most successful leaders—and what to do when they show up in your life Why structure creates freedom—and how to build the disciplines that sustain success across your faith, family, fitness, and finances A bold call to forgiveness: not just of others, but of yourself—and how this act unlocks true leadership potential The simple practice of 47 distraction-free minutes a day that can multiply your clarity, focus, and results Key Quotes "Excellence only happens on purpose... If we haven't put the structure and process or disciplines in place, success will fall backward." - John Gallagher "Diluted focus will lead us to diluted results.” - John Gallagher (quoting Rory Vaden) Resources from this Episode Website: https://coachjohngallagher.com/ Podcast: https://coachjohngallagher.com/podcast/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/coachjohngallagher/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachjohngallagher/ Connect with J.R.  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jamesJRreid  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamesjrreid/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamesjrreid/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/jamesJRreid Website: jamesreid.com Check out The Clutch Club™️: jamesreid.com/club (For Men Only) Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

In this conversation, Dr. Zonzie McLaurin eloquently shares that there is so much power in those sacred 15 minutes of just being in quiet that can change the trajectory of your leadership and how you lead. Through the story of Michael, who spent years climbing the corporate ladder, carefully crafting a persona of unwavering confidence and flawless expertise.Then he to a pivotal leadership retreat. In those fifteen sacred minutes of inner turmoil, Marcus made a decision that would transform everything. When his turn came, he spoke of his struggle with anxiety, of nights spent doubting his worthiness for his position, of his fear that authenticity would be seen as weakness.The discussion encourages you to just be your authentic self as you lead and watch what will happen to those that you are leading and yourself. Takeaways:What you fear will diminish your power actually amplifies it. When you lead from behind masks, we create environments where others feel they must mask themselves as well. When you dare to be seen—fully, vulnerably, authentically—you create spaces where others can do the same.

This week's show is with Rod Boothroyd. Rod brings more than two decades' experience of working with men and women to his current work as a Healing The Shadow practitioner. Rod's career in the area of human potential started with his training in Transactional Analysis psychotherapy at the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy in 1999. Since then he has taken further training in Integrative Psychotherapy, worked with the ManKind Project UK and Ireland (where he was a Primary Integration Training leader), and researched in depth the art of working with, and reintegrating, the human shadow. He is now working as a one-to-one coach and therapist, and is also a supervisor with Healing The Shadow, an organisation devoted to emotional healing and the development of human potential. In this episode, Lian and Rod delve into the concept of the 'sovereign within' and its transformative implications for leadership, personal growth, and soul awakening. They explore the essence of heart-centred leadership - including the importance of compassion and self-love, they share insights into the archetypes of inflated and deflated sovereigns - highlighting their manifestations in everyday life and the deeper insecurities they conceal, reflect on the pivotal role of purpose in anchoring a strong sense of self, and talk about the dynamics of childhood experiences and how these early influences sculpt our ability to and our path of embodying sovereignty. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: Heart-centred leadership begins with awareness and self-compassion - We need to see and nurture the inner child and the growing sovereign within. Recognising shadow archetypes deepens self-awareness - Inflated sovereigns, driven by insecurities, and deflated sovereigns, hindered by self-worth struggles, offer powerful insights into our behaviours and relationships. Purpose and self-love are the cornerstones of sovereignty - by embracing self-acceptance and aligning with purpose, we create a foundation for self-discovery and leadership that can transform not only our own lives but those around us.
