Part 2 of a conversation with the Coast to Coast Camps leadership team, this episode turns the focus to parenting, modeling, and what it really takes to raise an accountable generation.

From foster care to grandparenting, from toddlers to adult children, this conversation spans every stage of parenting—and one shared conviction: accountability isn’t taught through lectures, it’s learned by watching the adults go first.

You’ll hear real stories about cleaning up your own mess, choosing ownership over excuses, and why “do as I do” carries far more weight than “do as I say.” The team also explores why Raising Accountable Kids resonated deeply with their staff members, many non-parents, how reading this parenting book built empathy and maturity in the young staff.

Whether you’re a parent, leader, educator, or simply someone trying to live your values more consistently, this episode is a reminder that the example we set—especially in the small, ordinary moments—is what shapes the next generation.

When Every Problem Points to You

From Bottleneck to Breakthrough

What do you do when every problem seems to land on you?

In this episode of the QBQ! Podcast, I’m joined by the leadership team from Coast to Coast Camps for a conversation about leadership, culture, and personal accountability. Bud Harley shares how discovering QBQ! helped shift responsibility from bottlenecking at the top to becoming a shared language across the team.

We talk about what it looks like to eliminate blame and waiting, why accountability doesn’t require a position, and how asking better questions leads to action.

If you lead people in any capacity—at work, in a nonprofit or ministry, or at home—this episode is an invitation to stop carrying everything alone and start moving responsibility forward.

This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. In Part 2, we shift the focus to parenting, fostering, and raising the next generation of accountable kids and leaders.

“I still have to hold my people accountable.”

Managers say this all the time—and it’s a fair question.

In this short, one-off episode of the QBQ! Podcast, Kristin Lindeen clarifies the difference between personal accountability and holding others accountable—and why that distinction matters for leaders.

Drawing from a recent leadership workshop and a powerful insight shared by a frontline manager, Kristin explores two common myths of accountability and explains why no leader can make someone rise to the standard.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why accountability isn’t a team activity or something you “hold” over others
• What personal accountability really means (and what it doesn’t)
• The leader’s true role: clarity, coaching, standards, and consequences
• A better question every manager should be asking

🎧 Ideal for managers, supervisors, team leads, and parents.

If this episode resonated, consider sharing it with a leader who may be carrying responsibility that isn’t theirs.
