Our Podcast

Humble Conversations is a podcast dedicated to real talk, inner growth, and leadership rooted in humility. Hosted by Dr. James Knight—executive coach, speaker, and leadership expert—the show explores what it means to lead, live, and love with purpose. Through candid interviews with thought leaders, executives, changemakers, and everyday heroes, each episode invites listeners into a space of truth, reflection, and practical wisdom for navigating life with courage and compassion.

Whether you're a leader seeking to deepen your emotional intelligence, a professional on the edge of burnout, or someone simply longing for more meaningful dialogue, Humble Conversations is a voice of clarity in a noisy world. Because transformation doesn’t start with a title—it starts with a conversation. And the most powerful ones? They begin with humility.

  • The Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank had the honor and privilege of hosting Dr. Knight on three occasions. His sessions on cultural humility were truly eye-opening. His powerful storytelling, real-world examples, and practical strategies made complex topics both accessible and actionable. We left feeling inspired and better equipped to foster inclusive and respectful interactions in both our professional and personal lives.

  • I have been in the human resources and talent management space for almost thirty years, and I find Dr. James Knight to be one of a kind. His ability to relate to employees at all levels and within all demographics is a differentiator. When I have engaged him, he has been quick to assess the needs of the organization and adapt his style and process to those needs. I am confident that whether it is leadership development, team building or executive coaching, he will be an asset to any organization. I highly recommend him.

  • Dr. Knight was engaged to facilitate a session on “Humility in Leadership” at our leadership meeting which involved about 90 of our leaders. I can say without a doubt, this was the best session at this meeting. Dr. Knight’s subject matter knowledge, integration of humor and meaningful exercises made this a very meaningful and impactful event with immediately usable take-aways and learnings.

  • I was fortunate to engage in a Humble Leadership learning session with Dr James Knight. The learning centered on the appreciation that being humble, is at the center, or core of healthy and impactful leadership relationships. I was enamored to hear him speak so eloquently in how we show up for others – which he modeled so beautifully in his presentation! I was inspired to learn more about the Humble Leadership wheel, inclusive of language and behaviors in support of: love, lift, luminate, listen, and learn.
