People Support the Things They Help Create

Joyful Leader · May 14, 2026 · 17m

On Mike Birbiglia’s podcast, he regularly asks guests to share the best piece of advice they’ve received that they actually used. Every time I hear him ask, I think of today’s podcast topic: people support the things they help create.

This idea, taught to me by my beloved mentor and friend Ken, is a leadership game-changer.

Let’s talk about what this means, what it definitely doesn’t mean, and why it works.

Thanks for listening.
