I Tore My Achilles. It Made Me a Better Leader.

What happens when the person who teaches momentum is suddenly forced to stop? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Cameron Jenkins sits down with Dr. Samuel Jones, CSP, author of Momentum Mindset®: Get Unstuck. Move. Achieve When It Matters Most, to discuss the life-changing Achilles injury that turned his framework into a real-life case study. After rupturing his Achilles tendon while recording a leadership lesson, Dr. Jones found himself facing an unexpected season of surgery, recovery, uncertainty, and personal transformation. What followed became proof that momentum is not about moving fast. It's about mastering the moment you didn't choose. In this interview, you'll discover: ✅ How to maintain the right mindset during unexpected setbacks ✅ Why acceptance is the first step toward progress ✅ The leadership lessons hidden inside adversity ✅ How the Pyramid of Possibilities® helps people move from being stuck to becoming synchronized with purpose ✅ The power of small wins during difficult seasons ✅ Why leaders must learn to surrender, adapt, and trust the process ✅ How the Momentum Mindset® framework applies to business, leadership, relationships, health, and life Whether you're leading a team through change, navigating a personal challenge, building a business, or simply trying to move forward after disappointment, this conversation will encourage you to keep going.
