2026 SDLF Men's Summit Breakfast
What a powerful time....so help us to connect those who might want to join SDLF.

"What has moved you recently?" "Why?"

The question that moved many of us this week. NASA astronaut Victor Glover was on fire as he shared his observations and stories with us at the 2026 SDLF Men's Summit Breakfast sponsored by Alpha and Omega. A jam packed room saw scenes from space and were challenged to be the change in our world. 

Here's some nuggets from Victor:

  • It's still a miracle, even though we have words for it. (Are you embracing the miracles all around you?)

  • Where is your footing? ( It better be on something solid. For Victor, it's his faith in Jesus)

  • What we practice at, we get good at. ( Are you taking the time to hone your craft? Whether it's leadership, being a father or transforming the world that you live in?)

  • Get counseling. (Finding out things that are hanging us up and keep us from being the best version of ourselves and addressing them with help from a professional is tremendously important. For Victor, time with the psychiatrist as he prepared for the role of a NASA astronaut was incredibly helpful.)

  • Flip the Script! (What lies or excuses are we telling ourselves? Our emcee Tobias Haglund mentioned a few: "I don't need help." vs "I get to do more, better because I'm part of something bigger." ; " I get to do hard things with courageous friends who are behind me."; and "My marriage is struggling" vs. "I have a group of faithful friends who keep me accountable and pray for my marriage."

Certainly my prayer is that all of us who experienced the "wattage" of Victor and insights from space about our lives here on earth will shape our perspective on how we live in the here and now.  So grateful for those of you who sponsored this event, brought guests and were blessed. And about your guests........

We need some help in getting feedback from the Summit. A number of people expressed interest that you brought to the event. However, with all the excitement, we didn't get many feedback cards. So could you help us out? Send a link to this page to your guests and encourage them to take the 4 minutes required to complete the feedback form via the button below.

Again, I cannot reiterate how great it was to see 200 servant leaders together under one roof, being inspired and equipped to make a difference in San Diego. That is, after all, why we are here on the planet and why San Diego Leadership Forum exists: To encourage and equip men who are organizational servant leaders here in San Diego in order to engage their passions and execute change.
