The EOS Life is a Game of Inches: Charlie Rhea | EP 158

Every business owner wants clarity, but few are willing to slow down long enough to find it.

In this episode of The Thunderstock Show, I sit down with Charlie Rhea — EOS Implementer, certified executive coach, and faith-driven NetWeaver — to explore how growth comes not in grand gestures, but in quiet, intentional inches.

Charlie shares what it really looks like to lead with the Coach Approach — listening, pausing, asking better questions — and how simplifying in seasons of chaos can unlock the clarity, confidence, and courage that leaders need most.

We get into:

• Charlie’s leap of faith to start his EOS/coaching practice with no safety net
• What it means to fight for depth over noise and live fully in your values
• Why execution = focus + discipline (and how most leaders miss that)
• The power of listening over solving — especially for visionaries in a rush
• Practical tactics for building trust, alignment, and momentum

“Clarity doesn’t come from thinking. It comes through action — slowly, intentionally, one inch at a time.”

Question FOR Charlie: If you were standing at your own funeral, what would people say about you?

Question FROM Charlie: If you could go back to the beginning of your career, what’s one personal and one professional piece of advice you’d give your younger self?
