Isn’t it Lovely to Be Driven But Not Competitive? Special Guest: Luke Lindberg
“I want all boats to rise…I aim to be driven, but not competitive in most of my aspects of life.”
It’s three cheers for the red, white, and blue as Tracy and Rachel welcome favorite Patriot (and future President!) Luke Lindberg to the podcast for a conversation about public service, mentorship, and faith. Christened by one of his own mentors as “driven, but not competitive”, Luke discusses the importance of partnering with and investing in others to achieve maximum positive impact and shares how having his own mission statement has guided him through countless personal and professional opportunities, including experiences traveling the world with the Export-Import Bank of the United States and serving in his current position as the Head of Global Strategy for Sanford Health. Tracy and Rachel consider a world in which Luke’s mascot could be an Eagle named Freedom, while all three enjoy a more serious deep dive in the What We’re Loving This Week portion of the podcast.
