What Do You Do When Your Boss Becomes the Problem?

Episode notes

What happens when the person responsible for developing you is the one tearing you down? In this episode of The Leadership Sovereignty Podcast, host Ralph E. Owens II and co-host Terry Baylor sit down with Lawrence Scott - West Point graduate, former Army officer, international speaker, and founder of The LoSco Group - to explore the leadership principles forged in one of the most pressure-tested environments in the world. Lawrence arrived at the United States Military Academy at West Point as a high achiever - 4.2 GPA, award-winning writer, elite athlete. He had earned his place. But a dismissive freshman English professor made him question everything. Grades that didn't reflect his work. Scheduled office hours the professor never showed up to. A final grade that defied logic. And a system that quietly said: maybe you don't belong here. Then came the philosophy professor who pulled him aside and said the words that changed everything: never let anybody tell you that you can't write. That moment - destruction and restoration through the words of a leader - is the foundation of this conversation.
