  • Building Small Habits

    Every Monday morning for the past 2 years, I have made it a habit to listen to Dave’s podcast. It is one of the best - easy to listen to, I can take learnings and apply them somewhere in my interactions at work that week and searchable when I get stuck. Lots of value gained up by going through the Academy and signing up for Coaching for Leaders Plus.

  • Not consistent!

    I used to love this podcast because it was about leadership. Now I don’t listen to it anymore because it’s false advertising; it is NOT about leadership. It is about just business topics. Some interviewees are very bad quality which made me tune out. Specifically, there was a lady that said that smart career oriented people will do bad work on purpose to get back to their manager knowing that it will hurt their career, which is totally false and contradictory. Sorry Dave!

  • Transformational for My Leadership Journey

    CFL podcast has been transformational in my leadership journey. Dave’s insights and interviews are practical, inspiring, and immediately useful. The show also led me to the CFL Academy, where I’ve gained an incredible leadership cohort and a safe space to bring real challenges and grow alongside others. Highly recommend to any leader who wants to grow with clarity and confidence!
