In this episode of Selling from the Heart, Chad Eudy shares how his Navy service, family legacy, and corporate leadership journey have shaped his philosophy around servant leadership. From frontline roles to the executive boardroom, Chad illustrates how leading with purpose, aligning your passion, and showing up with authenticity leads to powerful, lasting influence.

He, Larry, and Darrell explore how sales professionals can elevate performance by focusing on impact over outcomes. The conversation touches on virtual assistants, the importance of living your "why," and how to measure the real success of leadership—not just by dollars, but by lives changed.
