Episode notes

Growth doesn’t come from getting it right every time. It comes from staying in the game when things go wrong. In this Best of 2025 He Said She Said episode, Chris and I are bringing together three conversations that shaped us the most this year. We’re talking about the moments that tested us, the risks that stretched us, and the rooms that changed how we think, lead, and live. We share stories behind our most cringe-worthy business moments, why your comeback rate matters more than perfection, what Ferrari, Pagani, and Europe taught us about risk and legacy, and how building the right mastermind can collapse timelines faster than anything else we’ve ever done. Tune in for the mindset shifts you need to recover faster and choose better rooms.
