In this podcast excerpt, the speaker asks listeners whether they are comfortable taking on a front‑facing leadership position that involves owning liability and making decisions. The speaker frames the question as a personal reflection: does the idea feel uncomfortable (“squishy”) or does it inspire confidence? For those who feel uneasy or sit in an in‑between space, the speaker suggests considering a less visible, support‑focused role. The speaker draws on personal experience and references teammates Steve and Lynda, noting that they have faced similar choices, to illustrate how different team members navigate leadership versus support positions.

One thing I will say is, do you— are you okay with being in a leadership role, taking chances, owning the liability, owning the decision process making? Does that make you squishy feeling uncomfortable, or does that make you stand strong and say yes? And if you're the squishy feeling uncomfortable, or if you're sliding on the in-between, I would give yourself the opportunity to, to take a track that's a little less front-facing and be that support role. And I know that I can speak for myself from when I saw it from my angle, and I see it in our team, and I know that Steve has had that experience as well and what that looks like. And same as Lynda, of course, too.
