In this episode of Grow With Leila, I dive into the transformative book The Gap and The Gain by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy, with a very special guest—my hubby, John Land. Together, we explore how shifting our mindset from always chasing an ideal to appreciating how far we’ve come can revolutionize our business and personal growth.

Today, we talk about:

>> The power of measuring backwards to see how far you’ve already come, rather than how far you think you have to go.
>> How practicing gratitude can increase resilience and psychological safety in your business.
>> Real-world strategies from the book that we’ve implemented to realize measurable results in our businesses.

Guest Info: John Land is a Navy veteran, road cyclist, and puzzle enthusiast who also happens to be a partner at Mercer, where he helps large companies design HR transformation and recognition programs. He’s my partner in life, and in this episode, he’s joined me to share his insights on how The Gap and the Gain has impacted his life and career.

Listen in because this episode discusses the power of a deliberate mindset shift and provides actionable business strategies that can help you redefine your path to success. We talk about real wins, the impact of gratitude, and the power of measuring the gain rather than the gap
