In this episode of The Summit Podcast, I sit down with Phil Kornachuk for a real conversation on leadership, personal mastery, and what it actually takes to lead when things get uncertain.

We break down a simple truth that most people miss:

Leadership isn’t assigned… it’s earned.

Phil shares insights from his work with Stonewater Training, along with lessons from real-life experiences that challenge the way we think about influence, discipline, and control.

We talk about:

• The difference between leadership and position
• Why influence matters more than authority
• How to navigate uncertainty and ambiguity
• The role of discipline and accountability in growth
• What it takes to step up in critical moments
• Why letting go of control can actually make you a better leader

This isn’t theory — it’s real, practical leadership you can apply immediately in your business and your life.

If you’re serious about growth, this episode will push you to take a hard look at how you’re showing up every day.

• “Leadership is earned, not assigned.”
• “Let go of the need for control.”
• “Every day is a gift—be present.”

If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who needs to hear it — and take a minute to reflect:

Where in your life are you waiting for permission… instead of leading?

In this episode of The Summit Podcast, Bob Turner sits down with Parker Gammon, owner of Miracle Electric, to discuss the journey of building a successful electrical contracting business.

Parker shares how his upbringing on a farm shaped his work ethic and prepared him for entrepreneurship. He also opens up about the difficult seasons of business, including a moment where the company nearly went bankrupt.

Through leadership growth, strategic learning, and a complete rebrand from PG Electric to Miracle Electric, Parker was able to turn the company around and build a stronger organization.
