In this episode, Jennifer and Danielle explore the role of the builder…the often-unseen systems thinkers, cultural shapers, and organizational empaths who hold it all together. Tapping into the power of master number 22 and Life Path 4, the conversation centers on what it really means to build something that lasts, especially when no one’s watching.They dive into how foundational leadership happens in the middle layers of organizations, not just at the top…and how missing a single thread can cause everything to unravel. From change management and trust dynamics to misaligned vendor strategies and feedback loops that die before they reach the surface, this episode is a wake-up call for leaders, partners, and anyone shaping systems from the inside out.Whether you’ve been the one holding it all together or you’re trying to build smarter from here on out…this one’s for you.Key Topics Covered:What makes a Master Builder…and why fours are the backbone of everything- Why trust is foundational and often broken by subtle moments- Organizational threading: what happens when you miss a loop- Early warning systems and the power of seeing the "sneeze" in the data- The problem with vendor thinking and one-way revenue asks- Why Indeed’s approach is a case study in tone-deaf change- Moving from contributor to creator in your own careerTimestamps:00:00 – The Master Builder Vibe Jennifer introduces the power of the number 22 and Life Path 4, framing the episode around infrastructure, trust, and the systems that hold it all together.04:30 – Pulling the Thread (or Missing It) A deep dive into why systems people are often overlooked—and how one missed “loop” in the thread can unravel the whole organization.07:30 – Trust as a Foundation Jennifer and Danielle explore how trust is given, earned, and destroyed—and why it’s the core metric behind culture, leadership, and change management.16:00 – The Indeed Case Study: When Feedback Dies in the Funnel Using real-world examples, they unpack how layoffs, tone-deaf leadership, and broken communication loops signal a failing foundation.28:45 – Vendors vs. Partners: Are You Helping Me or Charging Me?
