In this episode, Randy shares how your worst mistakes can become your greatest teachers—if you’re willing to face them.
Don’t miss this raw and real look at what it takes to lead yourself through the hard stuff.
Are you really spending your time on what matters most?
In this episode of Winning Begins at Home, Randy dives into the fleeting nature of time—and how easy it is to get lost in distractions that don’t move the needle.
Inspired by a powerful moment at a graduation service, he unpacks how to reclaim your time, be present, and lead yourself and others with intention. If you feel like life is speeding up and you're stuck on autopilot, this one’s for you.
Tune in and learn how to stop wasting time—before time moves on without you.
It’s easy to forget that leadership matters just as much at home as it does in the office.
Randy Gravitt reflects on his journey, shares lessons from writing Winning Begins at Home, and offers practical ways to be more intentional with those we love.
With the power of a few simple questions and the mindset of service, he shows how everyday interactions can become moments of connection. The phrase “I’d love to” isn’t just polite—it’s transformational.
If you’ve ever wanted deeper relationships with your spouse, kids, or loved ones, this is a message you don’t want to miss.
What if the key to deeper connection at home was as simple as two questions?
In today’s episode, Randy Gravitt explores how asking “What do you need?” and “How can I help?” can transform communication and strengthen relationships.
These questions are more than just words—they're an invitation to serve, listen, and show up with love. Whether you're a spouse, parent, or friend, this message reminds us that real connection begins with selflessness.
Disagreements are normal—but when winning the argument becomes more important than the relationship, we all lose.
In this episode of Winning Begins at Home, Randy Gravitt shares a powerful visual to show how small tensions can tangle up even the strongest connections.
Focusing on humility and real listening, he offers a better way to handle conflict and care for the people who matter most. This is a heartfelt reminder that being right isn’t nearly as important as being loving.
What would it take for the people who know you best… to love you the most?
It’s easy to win at work and still feel like you're losing at home.
That’s why this episode of Winning Begins at Home is so important. Randy Gravitt shares a simple yet game-changing question that can help you deepen your relationships with the people who matter most—your spouse, kids, close friends, and family.
With humor, warmth, and wisdom, Randy encourages all of us to live in a way that’s not just respectable, but truly lovable. If you care about growing in connection, communication, and authenticity, this one’s for you.
If you win at work, but lose at home, you still lose.
For 650 episodes I produced a podcast about Chasing Greatness in your life personally and professionally.
I pushed pause for 18 months as I went deep in my company’s podcast, the Lead Every Day Show.
But I kept being convicted by what I was seeing as a lack in the conversation about winning at home.
So I am back and have a question.
When you think of success, what comes to mind? Career, public achievements, diplomas, degrees, bank account balance?
We work hard to find a job, gain promotions, and develop skills to become a peak performer. If you’re like most people, we’re continually striving to win at work.
Just as you've crafted a plan for professional growth, it's time to prioritize winning at home.

I’m excited to announce some changes here on the Chasing Greatness Podcast. As we go into these next few months, I am committed to dropping more content for those of you who faithfully listen.
Are you ready to win? After a weekend of watching the NFL playoffs, I know I feel inspired to be my best. The weekend‘s victors relied on all three phases, offense defense, and special teams to help them win. In the same way, we are shifting our content to focus on three areas to help chase greatness.
There will be three episodes each week for the foreseeable future with Monday geared around winning at work, Wednesday focused on winning at home, and Friday all about winning at life. Additionally, I’ll be dropping a book review on Thursdays as well as occasional content on Tuesdays. Be sure to subscribe so you can receive every episode.

The first three words in the Bible are “In the beginning.” So, what do you need to begin this year? I love when January 1st rolls around, as it brings the opportunity for a fresh start, a new perspective, and a clear reset on goals, vision, and opportunities.
This week on the podcast, I’m sharing the key questions I ask myself when it comes to six critical concepts in my life: Clarity, Energy, Necessity, Productivity, Influence, and Courage. I believe the answers you uncover will allow you to live strategically rather than sporadically in the year ahead.
And, if your resolution is to read more, I’m excited to announce that each week’s episode will also feature a “reading recommendation.” To start off, our book of the week for the first week of 2022 is Brendon Burchard’s “High Performance Habits.” I hope his book and the message we’re sharing this week will position you to Chase Greatness on your 2022 goals!

1. Marriage

Merry Christmas!
We’re just ten days away from the reason for the season and the “most wonderful time of the year.”
However, for many, the holidays may bring more darkness than light. Darkness may come in the form of financial struggles, family strain, career uncertainty, loneliness, or even depression.
If you identify with this sentiment, I have good news: You can be the light! And, even better news: Light will always overcome the darkness. Surround yourself with life-giving relationships, be emotionally present, treat every day as a gift, and you will take steps toward being the light for your family, your community, and even the world!
This week’s podcast is going to be different from our typical episode. Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to speak at Hillsong Church in Atlanta. Regardless of your beliefs, I thought you might find encouragement in my message. Please pass along any comments, and also share with anyone you know who needs a reminder of how much God loves them. Be sure and join me the next couple of weeks for a special Christmas episode and a look back on 2021.

As we enter the holiday season and rapidly approach the end of 2021, we’re taking a week to review the year.
As we look back on the podcasts we have released, we asked ourselves, "Which were the most listened to? And, more importantly, why?"
"How Great People Grow" was high on the list and we think it’s because no matter where you are on your own journey – whether you are leading a multi-million dollar organization or a Saturday morning Little League team – every leader is looking for advice on how to reach his or her potential.
Listen in on our conversation with Mark Miller as he shares how he continues to grow, best practices on chasing greatness, and how you too can achieve extraordinary things!

We’ve talked about focus and energy as we strive toward accomplishing our goals, but no matter what you’re trying to achieve before the end of the year, one thing matters more than anything else: TIME.

Welcome to September!
It may still technically be (and feel like!) summer, but as we look toward fall and begin wrapping up our summer “Reset” series, we wanted to switch gears on our podcast. The past few weeks, we’ve been discussing winning at home; however, we should never neglect the importance of winning at work.
The American workforce is in a crisis, and has been for decades. Two-thirds of employees are disengaged and 55% are actively seeking a new job.
Do you fall into this majority? Life is too short for you to stay in a job where you’re not in your sweet spot. On today’s podcast, I’m sharing five signs it might be time to leave. Plus, in the next few days, I’ll be dropping bonus content to help you make your preferred future a reality!
You have greatness in you. If you don’t steward that correctly, you WILL regret it down the road.

Podcast Family,
Are you ready for some football? I know I am! The kickoff to the season is days away. Whether your team is in the NFL, college, high school, or even Pee Wee, this is an exciting time of year.

As you listen to the content, I encourage you to think of someone you can help, how you need to help yourself, and a specific area of your life where you need to run up the score.
As always, we welcome your questions, comments, and feedback.
Thanks for helping us spread the word, especially those who listen and watch on YouTube.

Although it still feels like the middle of summer, we’re officially in back-to-school season! For many parents out there, this means readjusting back to a routine that may feel foreign after the long summer and past year of virtual learning.
As you consider your daily routine, ask yourself: Are you setting yourself up for greatness? I believe your habits are perfectly designed to give you the results you’re currently experiencing in your life.
After all, the difference in who you are and who you want to be is in what you do. So, what do you need to stop doing? What do you need to continue doing? What do you need to start doing? And, beyond it all, is your HEART behind your habits?
On the podcast today, I’m talking about my top book recommendations on the subject, the power of ritual, and how to incorporate habits into your daily life that will pave the path to high performance.

We’re six weeks into the back half of the year and a few weeks into our “Win at Home” podcast series. This week’s topic is perhaps the most important of any I’ll discuss: relationships.
Can you confidently say the people who know you the best love you the most? For many, the people who know them the best end up respecting them the least. I hope you fall into the former category!
On the latest episode, join me as I reflect on two Bible lessons that will ensure we are loving first, living last, and focusing on our most important relationships. Plus, I’m sharing my top ten ideas to activate these lessons to ensure we’re treating love not as a noun, but as a verb.
Remember, if you’re winning at work but losing at home, you’re still losing. If you want to chase greatness, start with the people who matter most!

We’re back with another episode to help you WIN AT HOME. This week, we’re talking about core values.
I just got back from the beach and it got me thinking: if you’ve ever gone swimming in the ocean, you understand the power of an undertow. Thankfully, YOU CAN SURVIVE the undertow of life and leadership and the forces – expectations, approval, shame, materialism, isolation, and more – that pull us adrift. In this week’s episode, we discuss core values and how they are the key to staying grounded and having the life you want. Near the end, I share an eight minute secret that could change your life.
Feel free to leave your comments so we can interact, and thanks for sharing with your friends and family. You are helping us spread the message that, “winning begins at home.” Remember, if you win at work and lose at home, you still lose. Let’s keep doing our HOME WORK!

I spent last week at the beach on family vacation and cherished hanging out with the ones I love the most. The week was full of surprises, particularly the black bears that showed up 1 mile from the beach.
You’ll hear the story in this episode, along with my own halftime adjustments. In keeping with what I’ve been sharing with you the past few weeks, I’m doing a hard reset going into the second half of 2021.
I began the year with the goal of making this my best year ever, and I know from being an old coach, the best teams finish well — and individuals are no different. Hopefully this week’s episode will spur some reflection and response in your own life as you continue to Chase Greatness.
The next few weeks the show will focus on helping you win at home. If you know someone who is struggling outside of work, please help us spread the word by sharing a link!

Welcome to the end of June! It’s the start of a new season, and about to be the start of a new month. But, perhaps most significantly, it’s halftime!
We’re about to wrap up the first half of 2021, and set our sights on chasing greatness throughout the back half of the year. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to reflect, recalibrate, and RESET, this is it!
This week on the podcast, I’m sharing a Bible verse that prompted me to question how I’m doing in the areas that matter most.
I want to challenge you with the same questions: How are you doing relationally, physically, mentally, and spiritually? It’s time to reassess and RESET!

You may not like where you are, but if you stay on the wrong road, you’ll only be further from where you want to be. Now is the time to RESET!
The greatest coaches make Half Time adjustments that position their teams for the greatest chance of success. This is the topic for today's podcast: What half time adjustments do you need to make halfway through the year to set yourself up for success these last 6 months?
I have 6 questions you should ask yourself to get started on this track of resetting.
- What is working right now?
- What is NOT working right now?
- What is missing?
- What do you need to prune?
- What is your #1 priority for the second half of the year?
- What is your #1 goal for the second half of the year?

Today, we’re joined by a legendary leader, great thinker, and my fantastic friend, Mark Miller.
We’ve had Mark on the podcast before to discuss how great leaders grow, narrow their focus, and become a leader others want to follow.
This week, Mark sits down with us to talk about the power of reinventing continuously, how to stay engaged, and the resources that helped him in his 40+-year career at Chick-fil-A!
Are you WITH the people you work with?
This month, we’re talking about the truth behind the statement, “Together is better” as you Chase Greatness. We’ve talked about how this relates to your goals, your mindset, and even your finances. Today, we’re talking about your job!
Join me on this week’s podcast as I offer a filter you can use to determine whether the people around you at work are helping you grow or dragging you down.

Who you’re surrounded by can be either the fuel or the quicksand when it comes to your progress in Chasing Greatness… and that includes when it comes to your finances!
How are the people around you influencing your mindset around spending, saving, and giving? On this week’s podcast, I discuss what I’ve learned about living abundantly while also seeing your money - and your investments in people and projects - grow!
"Your Friends Determine The Direction And Quality Of Your Life" - John Orr
This is a statement that rings true in every aspect of our lives. Financially, physically, spiritually, emotionally, etc.
Jim Rohn said, "You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with." Whether that is 100% accurate or not, there is some truth in that quote. The Bible says it this way, "Bad company corrupts good character".
This is the first episode in a series titled, "Better Together".
We are 100 days into the year! How are you doing? Are you hitting your goals? Where do you need to change?
President Biden is coming up on his first 100 days in office, how will he be remembered? Did he hit his goals or did he miss the mark in a few areas?
As we look back on the first third of 2021, ask yourself, "How am I doing, honestly?". You have to start where you are but you don't have to stay there!
Recently I decided to cancel Netflix because I normally don't watch tv, not because its bad, (the Masters are on this week and I defiantly will be watching!) ,but because I want to dedicate my extra time to growing.
How dedicated are you to your personal growth plan this year? Lets readjust and hit this next 100 days with more intentionality and focus than we did the first!
Lets Chase Greatness!
Mark Miller is back with us today as we talk about this idea of How Great People Focus!
This episode will start a monthly conversation with Mark where we will touch on topics that we think will help you maximize the greatness journey that you are on.
A few topics we touch on today include:
- How important focusing your vision is
- "Heads up, heads down" tension
- The, "What are we trying to accomplish?" question

I think Harry S. Truman said it perfect when he said,
"Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers."
This perfectly sets up what we will be discussing today. How Great People Read.
I know you're busy and you are thinking that adding a commitment to reading is the last thing that you want to do, but I think it will benefit you more than you can imagine.
To help with how to make that commitment we go over three tips that I think can help you as you start down this path of intentional reading.
Also, we talk about a few of my favorite books on the podcast today, including:
- Necessary Endings by Henry Cloud
- Great by Choice by Jim Collins
- Your Roadmap For Success by John Maxwell
- Linchpin by Seth Godin
- Every Shot Counts by Mark Broadie
- Deep Work by Cal Newport
- The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren
- And my personal favorite, The Bible
Have you ever wondered how great people have grown to be able to do extraordinary things.
Think about people like Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Babe Ruth, Gandhi, and many others.
We are going to talk about some ways we think that they became great, but also some ways that might surprise you.
My friend, Mark Miller is going to join us today to help us answer the question, "How do Great People Grow?"
Mark currently serves as Vice President of High Performance Leadership at Chickfila and has been serving the company for over 40 years.
Personally, I believe Mark has mastered this art of growing, and I can't wait for him to share his strategy with us today!
Henry Cloud says, "You are ridiculously in charge." and I believe that to be especially true when it comes to your career.
Today on the podcast I bring one of the Integreat Leadership coaches, Scott Morgan, to talk about:
- What to do when you are not in a job using your full potential
- How to leave an organization
- How to stay resilient
I can't wait for y'all to listen to today's episode! If you gain any value from our podcast, we ask that you share with a friend who could benefit from it.
David Epstein wrote a book called, " Range: Why Generalists Triumph In A Specialized World". This book is the base of what we will discuss on today's podcast.
One of Integreat's coaches, Chuck Cusumano, will be joining us to discuss this topic of why it pays off to be well rounded in a world of expertise.
Thinking about this episode, a story of when my daughter and I were at The University of North Carolina for a visit and the admissions counselor said, "We are looking for pointed people, not people who are well rounded.".
I remember being blown away from that experience and want to dive into why being a Generalist is just as important as being a Specialist!
Welcome to Episode Three of Chasing Greatness!
Think of some of the greatest speakers throughout history. Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Ghandi, Winston Churchill, Maya Angelou, and many more.
Today we talk about some habits that great people practice every single day in their speech.
We will dive deeper into these seven areas of :
- think before they speak
- listen before they speak
- speak courage into others
- always tell the truth
- seek feedback
- say hard things in a loving way
- speak up
My daughter Katherine who is a elementary school teacher in Chicago will join us to talk about how speaking life and saying things in the right way can go along way if we want to effectively invest in the next generation.
Have you ever wondered how some of the greatest people think?
This week I am going to give you a few ways to think that will help you influence your life and others around you.
Also, one of our Coaches, Scott Morgan will join us to speak on some topics including:
- How to create the right mindset
- The importance of buy in
- How others have spoke life and what it means
This episode will help you create a mindset to help you Chase Greatness this week.
Tom Brady has won his seventh Super Bowl and many commenters have said the case is now shut that he is the greatest NFL Quarterback of all time. At what cost though?
As we look around, we see a select few people that we say are "great" or "noteworthy". This month I would like us to think about this idea of "Chasing Greatness".
To chase greatness, we must first define what greatness looks like for each of us.
Jesus flipped the definition of what it means to be great on its head when He was on earth and I would like to share that perspective with you today.
Join us as we define greatness and ultimately chase greatness!
Hindsight Is now 2020!
Welcome to 2021! I am so excited to start this year off by telling you about our course to help you have the best year of your life. It Is a video based course with a blueprint for your entire year called, "21 Days To Your Best Year Ever".

"Pride fills space, humility creates space." - Dan Webster
This week Is Thanksgiving week, my favorite week of the year actually, and on this special Monday we will be talking about Humility. In this season of thankfulness, I want to challenge you to go above and beyond to express what you are thankful for to the people that matter the most. We want the people who know us the best to love us the most.
This Thanksgiving season, lets express gratitude towards others who have sacrificed for us. Don't let pride ruin this great season of thankfulness!

Sadly, everywhere I go, I meet leaders who feel lonely. As someone once said, “It’s lonely at the top.” Most leaders can appreciate the truth of that statement, and yet it doesn’t have to be that way. Loneliness is a choice.
As a leader, the most important thing you have is your people. While the temptation for a leader is to insulate and isolate him- or herself from the outside world, giving in to this temptation is a mistake.
This week on the podcast, we’re discussing community. I want to remind you: please don’t neglect the worth of the people around you. Listen to their stories, value their opinions, and foster their dreams. If you do, you won’t have to be lonely at the top. You can choose a better way – the way of relationships.
Your friends determine the direction and quality of your life. It's true of you, and it's true of me. Today I am talking about community and the role It plays in everyday life as well as how It can transform the way others see you. Why talk about community on a leadership podcast? Because, when leaders get better, we all get better.
On this Friday’s episode of The Randy Gravitt Leadership Podcast, I sit down with a good friend, a great leader, and a fellow InteGREAT coach: Scott Morgan. Join us as we end the week with a reminder for the end of the year: If you want to progress, you must first be intentional. What do you hope to accomplish between now and December 31, 2020? It all starts with intentionality.
This month on the podcast, I'm focusing on Leveling Up your leadership. On this Wednesday's episode, I'm talking about complacency, urgency, and the continual desire to be better tomorrow than you are today. The truth is: the best leaders are comfortable when they're uncomfortable.

Have you ever been stuck? If so, you know how frustrating it can be. However, spinning your wheels in a vehicle, buried in the mud, barely compares to a life that has lost traction. A few years ago, Dan Webster and I found ourselves wondering if we were still on the right career path. Thankfully, we both were eventually able to become UNSTUCK and find renewal in work and life. How did we do it? By applying the principles we wrote about in “Unstuck,” which we discuss on the podcast this week. Don’t miss this episode if you want to gain traction in your life and leadership
Are you confusing activity with accomplishment? Is your focus where it needs to be? Are you locked in on the areas of your life and leadership that matter most? On this week’s Coach’s Corner, I challenge you with these questions and hope to realign your focus to finish the year strong!
This Monday is the start of a new week, a new month, and a new podcast season for me. Throughout November, I will be focusing on “Leveling Up” your leadership. Today, we start with the concept of Focus versus Distraction. Are you focused on the right things when it comes to your life and leadership? Listen to the latest episode of The Randy Gravitt Leadership Podcast to start your day, week, and month off with a focused state of mind!
If you’re familiar with my books Unstuck and Finding Your Way – or even if you’re not! – you are probably familiar with the name Dan Webster. In addition to co-authoring my books, Dan also serves as a leader I look up to. On this Friday’s podcast, I sit down with Dan to discuss how leaders can move past burn out and find their true calling.
On Monday’s podcast episode, we discussed the 5 HEART Habits that underlie leadership character. On today’s episode of Coach’s Corner, I want to discuss just how you can grow those HEART Habits to become a leader who others want to follow. If your heart’s not right, nobody cares about your skills.
It’s been seven years since Mark Miller wrote “The Heart of Leadership,” but its lessons still hold as true as ever. Do you want to be a leader who starts with a heart? Do you want to be a leader others want to follow? They are one and the same because if your heart is not right, nobody cares about your skills. On this Monday’s episode of The Randy Gravitt Leadership Podcast, I discuss the 5 HEART Habits necessary to get your life and leadership on track. Listen here [Links].

Last week on the podcast, we talked about assessing your current direction. This week, we’re going to go from assessing to attacking!
How can you attack the gaps from where you are to where you want to be?
One of my favorite authors, Henry Cloud, says, “You are ridiculously in charge.” I love that phrase because we often forget how much we are in control of. You are ridiculously in charge of your time. You are ridiculously in charge of your story. I hope you start off this week by attacking the gaps, dominating what you are in control over, and remembering you are ridiculously in charge!
