Paul Alkoby: You Are Good

In this episode of Alignment First, I sit down with Paul Alkoby, Air Force veteran and founder of the You Are Good Project, to talk about turning your lowest point into a mission that serves others. We dive into ownership, self-forgiveness, identity, and the daily practices that keep a leader regulated, and break down real, actionable ways to become the fittest leader possible through peace, power, and presence.

Key Takeaways

1. You are not behind. You are out of alignment. Paul played small for years before he owned his story and stepped forward.

2. Forgive yourself first. Paul could forgive almost anyone except himself. Self-forgiveness unlocked everything else.

3. Drop the weight that was never yours. The body keeps the score. Release what you have carried for other people.

4. Update your identity for the season you are in. An old identity in a new season keeps leaders stuck.

5. Get out of isolation on purpose. Paul's "go first" practice, three real conversations a day, breaks the loop.
