Most of us struggle with the gap between who we are and who we aspire to be, especially after leaving a high-performance space like sports. In this episode, co-host Gary Lancina and guests Kate McKinnon and Sara Bradley explore how the skills developed through sports — resilience, coachability, teamwork, adaptability, feedback, and competitive drive — translate into leadership, career transitions, and life beyond the game.

The conversation looks at the identity shift that can happen when competition ends, and how former athletes can reframe what they learned on the field into strengths that serve them in the workplace and beyond.

Whether you are a former athlete, a leader supporting others through transition, or someone navigating a new chapter yourself, this episode offers a reminder that your greatest game may still be ahead.

Welcome to the second season of The Fault Line, the podcast where hosts Gary Lancina and Kim Scribner pinpoint the moments when strategy meets stress: when plans are tested and decisions define the outcome.

Season 1 took us inside pricing strategy, go-to-market transformation, growth, and the human side of leadership. Season 2 goes further.

This season, Gary and Kim bring in new voices to confront the questions reshaping business right now: how AI is changing the way corporations operate, what it actually takes to lead a team, and what happens when people make the leap into the business world from entirely different paths.

New episodes on Tuesdays.

Organizations aren’t built to stay still, but too many still treat change like a one-time event instead of an ongoing evolution. In this episode of The Fault Line, Gary Lancina and Kim Scribner are joined by transformation strategist Kelly Geyer for a conversation about resilient organizations, adaptive leadership, and why structure alone won’t save a company from disruption. From construction metaphors and agile transformations to leadership buy-in and organizational alignment, the discussion explores what it really takes to build companies that can bend without breaking.
