How do you deal with change as a leader? 

It’s a scary thing. No one can truly be comfortable with it, but believing that you’ll find yourself in a more energizing position is crucial for moving forward. 

Jeb Banner, CEO of Opendate and founder of Smallbox, joins Joe on this episode of the 1,000 Stories podcast to share his thoughts and insights about the role that change plays in our lives. Along the way, he discusses leadership, his passion for music, his meditation practice, and more. 

As a leader, you need to be present—physically and mentally—if you want to do something great. Jeb’s understanding and insights on spirituality will help you better connect with others and empower you to follow where your natural energy takes you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

1. Being mindful and self-aware of what you’re feeling is crucial to lead and build relationships effectively. 

2. Change is definitely uncomfortable, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to survive through. Trusting that you’ll eventually end up somewhere that energizes you is essential to moving forward with your life.

3. Feelings are valid factors that more leaders need to consider while managing their business and team.
