In this powerful episode, host Galen Hair sits down with leadership strategist Nell 3D, whose Me–We–World framework is reshaping how high achievers lead, live, and sustain performance.
Nell's story is anything but ordinary: from student debt, burnout, missing her father's funeral, divorce, and even a near-fatal head-on collision all forced a reckoning that transformed both her life and her leadership philosophy. What emerged is a radical concept: The Missing 1%—the idea that real success comes not from adding more, but from subtracting strategically.
