ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Leadership under pressure looks different when you have run counterintelligence in threat zones worldwide. Derrick Jackson spent 21 years in the Air Force, starting as a jet engine specialist and rising into a Special Agent role with OSI's Special Missions Branch. He ran threat assessments for Air Force Special Operations Command missions across the globe. Now he writes the Shadow One series. Rebecca and Derrick trade stories from the field and pull out the mindset lessons high performers need.
You will learn:
- Why fieldwork in dangerous places makes you calmer, not more reactive
- How to respond instead of react when your plan falls apart in the first five minutes
- The self doubt Derrick faced staring at a blank page, and how he pushed through
- Why promoting your work matters as much as creating it
- The sign on a license plate that stopped him from quitting
This episode delivers for leaders, founders, and high performers building something hard. Derrick shows you how to lead yourself first, follow your own path, and keep going when doubt creeps in. Leadership, mindset, resilience, and performance in one conversation.
Press play and awaken the leader within.
