EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
What does dog training have to do with your personal growth and leadership? More than you think. In this episode, Dallas Amsden shares unexpected insights from training the newest member of the family—Pepper the corgi-poodle—and draws powerful parallels between dog training and the kind of training required to become your FUTURE YOU.

- What dogs and teams have in common when it comes to communication
- Why inconsistency creates confusion — everywhere from your family to your subconscious
- How leaders sabotage trust with unintentional mixed signals
- What it means to lead yourself with clarity and repetition
- The single quote that will reframe your approach to motivation

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Dog training is really people training: it's about consistent signals
- Inconsistency in language or tone creates chaos, both externally and internally
- Clarity breeds confidence—in dogs, teams, and your FUTURE YOU
- The messages you send yourself matter just as much as the ones you send others
- Commitment to consistency is the real driver of transformation
- Leadership requires you to show up the same way, every day
