"You have to fill yourself up first. Just be me. People First and have the Mindset of a Calligraphy Pen—before you can lead anyone else."
That's the kind of wisdom Chris Heim brings into every room he walks into.
This episode features one of the most honest, raw, and grounding leadership conversations we've released on Your Limitless Leadership. Chris is known for his heart, his care for people, and his commitment to showing up fully for those around him.
His philosophy is simple: say yes to hard things. Not because it's comfortable, but because growth lives on the other side of challenge. That "yes" mentality has shaped his life, his leadership, and the way he elevates the people closest to him.
Chris never set out to become a CEO. Leadership found him—because of the way he listens, the way he stays curious, and the way he prioritizes people above everything else. He speaks openly about anxiety, purpose, and the power of paying attention to what fuels you, not just what looks successful on the outside.
"If I know who I am, I can lead."
It's simple. True. And a reminder most leaders never slow down long enough to consider.
Yes—his accomplishments are impressive. Swimming Alcatraz. Marathons. An Ironman. Climbing Kilimanjaro. But what stands out in this episode isn't the resume. It's the humanity behind it.
This conversation will challenge how you think about leadership, success, and the path you're walking.
Press play. This one has the power to shift something in you.
