Episode 3: The Mirror – Where Leadership Transformation Begins
The hardest person you’ll ever lead? Yourself.
In this episode, Masi and Shannon dive into the first stage of the M.I.L.E.™ leadership framework: M for Mirror. This isn’t surface-level reflection—it’s soul-deep, spiritual, and strategic. Because before you can fix a broken team or a tangled culture, you’ve got to face what’s staring back at you.
Mirror work isn’t weakness. It’s where real strength is born.
This episode challenges leaders to stop chasing performance and start seeking clarity. You’ll hear about patterns, blind spots, emotional triggers, and the power of self-awareness. From the “Know Yourself to Lead Yourself” framework to the 5 Voices tool, the conversation equips leaders to own their tendencies and lead with intention—not reaction.
What you’ll take away:
Mirror work = naming your shadows, not just your strengths
How your unexamined patterns leak into your team
Why trust starts with self-leadership
A call to invite God into your leadership through Psalm 139
How to stop projecting and start transforming
They challenge the myth that there’s no time for self-reflection—and show how avoiding the mirror creates more mess, more mistrust, and more misalignment.
Final Question to Reflect On:
