The Move Nobody Sees You Make | Ep 1

What if the most important decision you make this week happens when nobody's watching? In this episode, we're in Joshua 1:9 — the moment God hands Moses's successor the keys to leading two million people into uncertain territory. No welcome package. No guarantee it would feel okay. Just: show up, and I'll be with you. I'm not a theologian. I'm just a guy figuring out his faith and finding that what's in scripture keeps showing up in how I lead. This one hit close. We talk about the private moves — the decisions nobody applauds, the ones you make before the room is watching — and why those are the ones that actually define you. ↓ One thing to carry into your week: Identify the decision you've been postponing. Set a specific day to do it — not when you feel ready, but because you decided to move anyway. ───────────────────────── Want to go deeper with other men doing this work?

Leadership Beyond the Title: Culture, Vulnerability, and the Long Game

In this episode of Lead with Confidence, JP sits down with Cole Patchell, CEO of Corrosion Resistant Alloys, for a candid conversation on leadership beyond the job title. Cole shares his journey from international early-career experiences to leading a growing organization — including the isolation of leadership, lessons learned from mentors (and missteps), and why culture, vulnerability, and relationships matter more than ever in today’s market. They explore: * Why performance without culture eventually breaks * The shift from command-and-control leadership to trust and empowerment * How vulnerability builds stronger teams * Balancing ambition, family, and personal growth * Why relationships still win — even in a tech-driven world This is a real, thoughtful conversation for leaders navigating growth, pressure, and the responsibility that comes with the seat they’re in.

The Gap vs. The Gain

In this episode, JP Warren opens up about one of the biggest mindset traps leaders fall into — living in the gap.He shares his own experiences with comparison — not just to others, but to himself — and how that constant measurement against an ideal can quietly erode joy, confidence, and clarity.JP breaks down the difference between the gap and the gain:The Gap is when we measure progress against where we wish we were.The Gain is when we measure backward, comparing where we are today to how far we’ve already come.That shift changes everything. It replaces anxiety with gratitude, frustration with perspective, and comparison with confidence.Through personal reflection and leadership insight, JP shows how embracing “the gain” helps leaders build resilience, momentum, and connection — especially in slow or uncertain seasons.Key takeaways:- Focus on progress, not perfection.- Measure growth backward, not forward.- Confidence is built by recognizing how far you’ve come, not how far you have to go.Listen now and start leading from a place of gratitude and growth — not comparison.
