What becomes possible when leaders stop trying to do everything alone?
This week on Mpactful Messages: The Let’s Talk About It Podcast, Mayce DelValle and Missy Washam celebrate one year of the podcast and kick off a new season with a conversation that sits at the heart of their work and their relationship… partnership.
Inspired by the quote, “I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things,” this episode is an honest, behind-the-scenes look at what true partnership really requires. Mayce and Missy talk about shared ownership versus shared tasks, why the myth of 50/50 leadership often fails, and how trust, communication, and complementary strengths accelerate growth.
This conversation is for leaders who feel the weight of doing it all, for teams struggling to collaborate well, and for anyone who wants to lead in a way that reduces burnout and increases momentum. It’s a reminder that leadership is not about proving how much you can handle on your own… it’s about building something stronger together.
If you’re entering a new season and rethinking how you lead, collaborate, and ask for help, this episode is a powerful place to start.

LEADERSHIP COLLECTIVE
As we kick off the new year, we’re opening enrollment for our next Leadership Collective cohort.
Leadership Collective is a 12-week leadership development program designed for managers in high-stress roles who are tired of doing everyone else’s job. If you find yourself repeating expectations, fixing preventable mistakes, or feeling like your team can’t function without you, this program shows you how to take back control of your team and your time.
Inside the Collective, we focus on practical leadership tools that immediately improve communication, lock in accountability, and increase productivity and profit. Instead of chasing people and putting out fires, you’ll learn how to build a team that owns their work, executes consistently, and delivers results without constant micromanagement.
This isn’t theory. There’s no fluff. It’s real leadership development with real application… designed to help you lead with confidence, hit your goals, and step out of constant overwhelm while still driving performance.
Our next cohort begins January 26, 2026, and enrollment closes January 23, 2026.
If you’re ready to lead differently this year and stop carrying the weight alone, this may be the right next step. Learn More about it here: https://mpactfulmessages.com/leadershipcollective/
