The world rewards leaders who can perform under pressure and build trust on purpose. In this episode of 10 More Questions, Ross Drakes sits down with Waldo Waldman, a combat-decorated fighter pilot, Hall of Fame speaker, and bestselling author of Never Fly Solo, to unpack why leaders should never go it alone and how fear can become fuel.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Trust is something you build with others, never on your own
- Courage comes from acting alongside fear, not waiting for it to fade
- Standing out with ‘flavour’ is stronger than blending in with the crowd
- Find your niche first, then earn the right to expand
- Simple words and rituals can anchor culture and make it unforgettable
Whether you are leading teams, building brands, or looking for tools to turn anxiety into action, this conversation will shift how you think about trust and leadership.
