INSLATT – It’s Not So Lonely At The Top
Being at the top can be exhilarating… but also isolating. The INSLATT podcast is your antidote to lonely leadership. Hosted by Pete Rushmer – founder of Flagship Partners, TEDx Speaker, coach and high-performance advocate. This podcast brings together raw, real and inspiring conversations with leaders who’ve felt the pressure, faced the silence, and found strength in sharing the journey.
Whether you’re running a business, managing a team, or just striving to be better, INSLATT explores the highs, lows and honest truths of leading from the front. With practical insights, bold stories, and a whole lot of heart, you’ll feel part of a community that gets it.

About your host Pete Rushmer;
I’m Pete Rushmer – founder of Flagship Partners and now TEDx Speaker and Coach. I am someone who’s been in the thick of it: growing businesses, leading teams, and learning (sometimes the hard way) that success can feel pretty lonely at the top.
That’s why I created INSLATT – a podcast for business owners, leaders and high-performers who want to thrive without burning out. Each week, I dive into real, unfiltered conversations with inspiring guests and share lessons I’ve picked up from my own journey through corporate chaos, entrepreneurial graft, and the pursuit of something greater.
If you’re hungry for personal growth, bold leadership, and connection with people who just get it, then you’re in the right place.
Because the truth is; it’s not so lonely at the top… when we talk about it and share our experiences.

In this episode find out why Community is vital for business leaders.
1️⃣ Keeps You from Leading in a Vacuum
Leadership can feel like driving down a long motorway at night — lonely, with no headlights from others to guide you.
A strong community of peers gives you perspective you can’t get from your own team, helping you spot blind spots and avoid costly wrong turns.
2️⃣ Accelerates Growth
When you’re part of a community, you get the benefit of shared experience — hard-earned lessons you don’t have to learn the painful way yourself.
It’s like slipstreaming behind another vehicle in racing: you conserve energy while picking up speed.
3️⃣ Keeps You Accountable
A community that knows your goals will challenge you to stick to them, even when you’re tempted to coast.
Think of it as your personal race marshal — keeping you on the right track when you start to drift.
4️⃣ Builds Resilience
When the pressure mounts, you’re less likely to burn out if you’ve got trusted people you can call, who understand your challenges.
They don’t just hand you tools; they’ll jump in and help you lift the bonnet when something’s gone wrong.
5️⃣ Expands Your Influence
A leader with a strong community isn’t just leading a company — they’re shaping an ecosystem.
This increases your credibility, brand reach, and ability to attract top talent and better opportunities.
