Picture this: You're crushing it in business. Your leadership skills are on point. You're the person everyone comes to when sh*t hits the fan. 

Then your phone rings with news that changes everything—and suddenly, you're the one who needs to lead yourself through the unthinkable.

That's exactly what happened to executive coach Joelle Kaufman. 

One minute she's teaching CEOs how to handle their worst days, the next she's staring down a cancer diagnosis thinking, "Am I gonna die?"

But here's where it gets interesting for us entrepreneurs...

Instead of falling apart, Joelle did something brilliant. 

She applied every leadership principle she'd been teaching to her own crisis.

And what she discovered will change how you think about running your business—and your life.

We dive deep into:

• The "Curveball Method"—why most entrepreneurs get blindsided by challenges they should see coming
• How to build a support team that actually shows up (hint: it's not who you think)
• Why "I've got this" mentality will kill you—and what successful leaders do instead
• The communication strategy that kept her sane while her world was falling apart
• How practicing leadership when things are good saves your ass when they're not

Joelle gets brutally honest about the moment she realised she wasn't just coaching leadership—she was about to live it.

If you're the person everyone depends on but you're not sure who's got your back when you need it most... This one's going to hit home hard.
