We’re living and leading in a VUCA world — defined by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. And if leaders aren’t intentional, that environment will quietly erode team culture, fracture alignment, and stall productivity.

In this episode of Third & 30 – A Coach’s Podcast, we break down why vision is no longer optional. When leaders fail to clearly communicate the mission and consistently tell the story of where the team is going, confusion fills the gap. We discuss how clarity combats chaos and why alignment is the foundation of sustained performance.

We also unpack the 3 P’s of Culture — Permit, Promote, Practice. What you allow becomes the standard. What you celebrate becomes the focus. What you rehearse becomes your identity.

Finally, we dive into the importance of true teamwork — understanding roles, maximizing individual strengths, and creating environments where everyone contributes to the mission.

If you’re a coach, leader, educator, or business professional navigating pressure and uncertainty, this episode will challenge you to lead with greater clarity and intentionality.

Because at Third & 30, we believe opportunity is everything — especially in the moments that test your leadership most.

Third & 30 – A Coach’s Podcast Where we believe opportunity is everything.

New Year’s resolutions sound good on January 1—but what happens on January 12?

In this episode of Third & 30, we challenge the idea that success is built on resolutions and fresh starts. Instead, we dig into what actually moves the needle: daily discipline, consistent commitment, and the willingness to build when no one is watching.

Whether you’re a coach, athlete, parent, or leader, this conversation focuses on showing up every day, stacking small wins, and understanding that opportunity doesn’t come from a date on the calendar—it comes from preparation and habits.

No hype. No shortcuts. Just real talk about doing the work.
