What does it mean to become a self-evolved leader? Cayla recently read the amazing book The Self-Evolved Leader by Dave McKeown and knew immediately that he needed to be on the Mommy Millionaire Podcast. Dave knows what it takes to become an incredible leader and helps teams achieve the ordinary by doing things extraordinarily. He is the CEO of Outfield Leadership and when working with clients, he helps them elevate their focus to develop people in a world that refuses to slow down.

In today’s episode, we discuss how to recast your vision and goal in times of change, how to put your ego aside, and Dave’s tips in The Self-Evolved Leader. The book has tons of actionable steps to take and guided activities within to help you on your life-long journey to excellence. Take one step at a time and listen to what Dave has to offer from his own journey to excellence.
