This episode starts with a handful of lanyards — but it quickly becomes a masterclass on what it really means to learn, grow, and apply.

Melvin Larry unpacks decades of training, workshops, books, and conferences to deliver hard-earned wisdom on why growth isn't automatic and learning is more than showing up — it's about doing something with what you gain.

Whether you're flipping pages or listening on the go, this one challenges you to stop collecting information and start applying it.

In This Episode:

  • Why lanyards represent more than attendance — they represent intentionality
  • The real difference between reading and listening
  • Why application > information
  • How to know if you’re growing — or just spectating
  • How storytelling, humility, and sharing your lessons impacts generations
