The Real Cost of Avoiding Accountability

Kris is back with another round of the pet sitting saga—but this time, it's about more than just unreliable pet sitters. It's a story about accountability, boundaries, and leadership. Through a string of mishaps (and three fired sitters), Kris explores how these small, personal frustrations mirror the much larger issue of how we manage people in our lives and businesses.

When expectations aren't met, many leaders justify, tolerate, or avoid confrontation. But as Kris shares, avoiding accountability—whether with a pet sitter or an employee—only recycles poor performance and creates a culture of tolerance instead of trust.

Here's what we explore in this episode:

Why unmet expectations persist, and what happens when you ignore them
The emotional traps of people-pleasing, guilt, and "just letting it slide"
How avoidance erodes both trust and leadership confidence
The power of holding others—and yourself—accountable with grace, not anger
Why mutual accountability is the missing ingredient in healthy workplaces

This conversation is an invitation to protect your standards, honor your agreements, and lead with both compassion and clarity—because accountability isn't cruelty; it's integrity in action.
