  • Why Most Business Owners Think They Have Culture, But Don’t | Beth Tellez & Stacey Bankston
    Jan 15 2026

    What if the thing holding your business back isn’t strategy… but trust?

    In this episode of The TrustBuilt Podcast, Alan Bennett is back with therapists and business owners Beth Tellez and Stacey Bankston to unpack one of the most misunderstood leadership challenges business owners face: vulnerability, accountability, and trust inside growing teams.

    They explore why many owners believe they have a healthy culture—yet still face high turnover, disengaged employees, and a business that can’t run without them. This conversation bridges therapy, leadership, and business ownership to show how trust is built (or broken) in real time—and why it directly impacts scalability, retention, and exit value.

    If you’re tired of carrying everything yourself and wondering why your team won’t fully step up, this episode is for you.
