  • What Would Love Do: Meeting Hate with Love with Amy Woodall
    Mar 20 2026

    What if the most radical leadership move in today's outrage culture is choosing love?

    David sits down with Amy Woodall to unpack the deceptively simple but life-altering question: What would love do? What starts as a phrase that could live on a Hobby Lobby sign quickly becomes a bold challenge to our ego, our reactions, and the way we show up at home, at work, and in conflict. Amy breaks down the difference between love with conditions and love with accountability, and why matching hate with hate is easy, but meeting it with love requires courage.

    From the "orange juice under pressure" metaphor to practical ways to shift dinner table disagreements, workplace tension, and even how we treat ourselves in the mirror, this conversation is a masterclass in conscious leadership. If you're ready to stop reacting and start transforming your culture, your relationships, and yourself, this one will stay with you long after it ends. ❤️
