Description
In this episode of the Follow 2 Lead Podcast, Tony Miltenberger sits down with Fallon Klug for a thoughtful conversation on leadership, influence, and personal growth. Fallon shares her journey of recognizing herself as a leader—not through a title, but through influence, care, and presence in the lives of others.
Together, Tony and Fallon explore why many people resist calling themselves leaders, even when they clearly have influence. Fallon reframes leadership through the lens of caregiving, emphasizing that showing up with empathy, curiosity, and love is often the most powerful form of leadership. The conversation highlights how curiosity fosters kindness, deepens understanding, and strengthens relationships—especially in creative and collaborative environments.
Fallon also reflects on how improv has shaped her leadership and life, teaching her to embrace discomfort, stay present, and adapt with confidence. They discuss navigating career pivots, working with creative personalities, and the importance of having wise counsel when making bold decisions. The episode closes with a meaningful reflection on a youth pastor who modeled humility, honesty, and care—leaving a lasting imprint of what leadership can and should look like.
This conversation is an encouraging reminder that leadership is less about position and more about presence, listening, and serving others well.
