"Leadership is about building others up while getting out of their way."
In this episode, Craig Anderson talks with Peter Dunn, founder and CEO of Your Money Line, about what it really takes to grow into a leadership role. Pete shares candid reflections on how he went from a self-focused leader to someone committed to empowering others through trust, transparency, and support. He opens up about past missteps, the guilt he carries over early leadership choices, and the ongoing work of becoming someone worth following. Pete also explores why feedback is an act of care, how empathy and performance go hand in hand, and why the mission behind Your Money Line is so deeply personal. Whether you're a new leader or a seasoned executive, Pete's story is a reminder that leadership is less about having the answers—and more about asking the right questions.
