What if the way you respond to challenges matters more than the challenges themselves? This week on Mpactful Messages: The Let’s Talk About It Podcast, Mayce DelValle and Missy Washam are joined by Kaylee Felio to unpack the quote: “The only difference between stepping stones and stumbling blocks is how you use them.” Every leader encounters moments that feel frustrating, unexpected, or uncertain. In this episode, the conversation centers on perspective and choice. Together, they talk about how leaders can shift from reacting to what gets in the way to using it as a catalyst for growth and forward movement. This discussion is a reminder that leadership is not defined by what happens to you, but by how you respond when things do not go according to plan. It invites leaders to reflect on mindset, resilience, and the decisions that turn moments of difficulty into progress. If you’re navigating change, feeling stuck, or simply looking for a fresh leadership perspective, this episode offers encouragement and a practical way to rethink what’s standing in your path.
