Guest:

Amber Swope found clarity and a path toward personal improvement in the midst of her coaching career. Initially skeptical, she embraced the idea of medication not as a limitation, but as a means of sharpening her focus. With a candid and experimental spirit, Amber bravely informed her team of her decision to try Adderall and sought their honest feedback after two weeks. Her team's response highlighted a noticeable change; Amber was more agenda-driven in team meetings and patient with dialogue, giving her colleagues the space they needed to express themselves. Such openness to self-betterment and commitment to effective leadership defines Amber's approach to her professional journey.
