The Humility Advantage

Staff turnover is costing your hospital far more than you think—and the root cause isn't money, it's Emotional Intelligence (EQ).
In this introductory episode, we expose the "$\mathbf{\$100,000}$ Mistake": underestimating the true financial and human cost of staff turnover. We argue that employees leave their managers and the emotional culture, not just their salary.
Discover how low EQ in leadership and across the staff creates an environment of stress and burnout. We focus on the lack of empathy, self-awareness, and effective conflict resolution that fuels the revolving door.
The solution? A top-down, bottom-up commitment to raising the collective EQ of your entire hospital staff. We promote coaching as a vital tool to build emotional resilience and retention.

What is The Humility Advantage?

The Humility Advantage — Less Ego. More Impact.

What if the secret to stronger leadership, deeper influence, and lasting peace isn’t more confidence—but greater mental fitness rooted in humility?

Hosted by J. Alexander—former Marine, healthcare executive, and leadership coach—The Humility Advantage goes beneath the surface of success to explore what truly drives authentic, sustainable leadership. This podcast challenges the inner saboteurs that quietly undermine high performers—the inner critic, the controller, the pleaser, and the judge—and replaces them with calm, clear, purpose-driven leadership from within.

Through real stories, neuroscience-backed insights, and practical mental fitness tools inspired by Shirzad Chamine’s Positive Intelligence, each episode helps you recognize when ego and fear are hijacking your decisions—and how to return to your wiser, grounded self in real time. You’ll learn how to quiet imposter syndrome, build emotional intelligence under pressure, and lead from a place of clarity rather than reactivity.

Blending science, soul, and strategy, The Humility Advantage equips you to win the inner battles that drain your energy and limit your impact—so you can lead with presence, composure, and confidence that doesn’t rely on force or image.

Whether you’re leading a team, an organization, or simply working to lead yourself better, this show will challenge how you define strength, success, and greatness.

Because the world doesn’t need more impressive leaders.
It needs more mentally fit, humble ones.
