More Than A Title

This episode is personal.

My guest is Michael King, Founder of iPullRank, and this conversation is a real full-circle moment for me.

Before the titles, before the accolades, before the microphones—this is where I got my start in being a content creator. I was working at iPullRank when I first began podcasting, learning the game, finding my voice, and figuring out what impact could really look like. To sit here now, years later, having this conversation as peers, is something I don’t take lightly.

In this episode, we reflect honestly on:

What we were building then and what we were learning in real time

How the industry, the work, and we have evolved since

The sacrifices, pressure, and leadership lessons that don’t make it into LinkedIn posts

And most importantly, taking a moment to give each other our flowers—out loud, with intention

This isn’t about buzzwords or flexing. It’s about trust, growth, timing, and recognizing the people who played a real role in your journey. Michael shares his perspective as a founder, a builder, and someone who’s helped shape careers—including mine.

This episode is a reminder that your title may change, but the relationships, lessons, and moments that shape you matter far more
