End of Year Message

In this special end-of-year message, host Lamell McMorris reflects on the challenges of 2025, emphasizing that resilience is no longer just a personal virtue—it's how we rise, lead, and grow together.

Drawing on his personal journey from the south side of Chicago to advising CEOs, McMorris shares his insights on what separates organizations that "bend without breaking." He recounts his inspiring visits to Morehouse and Miles College, where he spoke with the next generation of leaders, encouraging them with the simple, powerful message: "So can you."

Lamell calls on listeners to honor their journey, reflect on the moments that tested them, and step into 2026 with clarity, courage, and conviction. "This is a message for everyone still showing up, still trying—that's the true definition of resilience."
