In this episode of The Empowered Educator Show, Dr. Mel sits down with Dr. Benjamin Ritter—author of Becoming Fearless—to dive deep into what it means to lead with empathy, build trust, and move from self-doubt to self-mastery.
Dr. Ritter shares his unique journey from aspiring professional soccer player to healthcare professional to leadership coach. Along the way, he encountered disengagement, toxic leadership, and personal setbacks that ultimately inspired his work in talent and leadership development.
Together, we unpack practical strategies from his book, explore how leaders can create environments where people thrive, and discuss how fear—when reframed—can actually become one of our most valuable teachers.
