Mark Lewis joins us for a conversation that moves from love to leadership, childhood to company culture, and the tiny gestures that make people feel seen. He talks about the pride of partnership — the moment you walk into a room thinking, “I can’t believe she’s with me.” He shares how a paper route at 13 shaped his philosophy of service, why kindness is a competitive advantage, and how failure became one of his greatest teachers.
We dig into vulnerability — the real kind, not the LinkedIn kind — and the cultural weirdness of a world where nobody wants to make a phone call anymore. Mark opens up about rebuilding relationships, raising kids, and the disappearing art of gratitude. We explore why CEOs struggle with engagement, how AI can fuel growth without replacing people, and why the best leaders delegate, listen, and hire for personality long before they hire for skill.
This episode is about personal growth, business growth, and the simple truth that the little things — the very little things — are what people remember.
If you care about love, leadership, culture, or just being a better human, this one’s for you.
