Leadership podcasts love theory. This one puts it next to the people who had to execute it. Friction to Flow brings together leadership coaches, humanistic practitioners, and operators who've been in the room when teams broke down — and rebuilt. Hosted by Shaun Mader, every episode is a candid conversation about what actually creates high-performing teams — and what quietly destroys them. No scripts. No rehearsed answers. Just the conversations leaders need but rarely get to have.
