Conversations with Buddy

Lucy’s journey is a powerful story of vision and courage. 🚀 After a successful 20-year career in banking, she made a bold move into entrepreneurship, launching her own coaching and consulting firm to expand her impact. Her story is proof that growth requires faith, risk, and the willingness to step into something greater. 🙌

Lucy teaches that true leadership starts with alignment—people, strategy, and culture.💡 She helps leaders move beyond ideas into real execution, equipping them with practical tools that drive results. It’s not just about thinking big—it’s about building systems that actually work 📈.

Her heart for community and legacy is undeniable. ❤️ Through initiatives like the Oregon Book Fair, Lucy is creating opportunities, making literacy accessible, and uplifting diverse voices. Her work goes beyond business—it’s about making a lasting impact for future generations 📚✨.

One of the most powerful messages from this episode is identity and mindset. Lucy reminds us, “we are not our behavior,” encouraging leaders to grow without being defined by past mistakes. Her challenge is simple: elevate your awareness, cast vision, and take action—even if it means doing it afraid.🔥

Lucy’s coaching platform is where transformation happens. Through her Strategic Systems approach, she helps leaders gain clarity, confidence, and direction while building high-performing teams. Everyone deserves a coach—and Lucy is on a mission to help people step into their purpose and build a legacy that lasts 🙌✨.

I highly recommend reaching out to Lucy for a few reasons… to get to know her as a person and also see if she is the right coach for you! You can hop on her website and schedule a free introductory call at LucyEscobar.com

About Buddy Puckett:
Buddy Puckett has been in the mortgage and finance space and mentoring men for over 25 years.  A mentoring opportunity all started when he first began in the mortgage industry in 1998, when he began to mentor a younger guy who happened to be married.  This person was not making great choices and it was sadly affecting his marriage.  We all are 1 decision away from something really dumb, so accountability became something Buddy knew he needed as well.  Buddy’s wife, Shawn, suggested he start a podcast in 2022 to share the stories of people who have struggled,
failed, overcame by realizing the life of love, joy and peace is only available through a relationship with Jesus Christ! 

“Jesus said to him, ’I am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me’.” John 14:6
