Marques opens up about his path from professional football to a rock bottom moment that reshaped his entire life and purpose, and what it took to rebuild from nothing. What we cover in this episode: Marques' six year career in the National Football League, and the difficult transition that followed, including a six month struggle with addiction, alcohol, nightlife, and gambling Building a multimillion dollar construction company that reached multiple eight figures a year, and how ego, greed, and the personality ethics led to its total collapse Moving to Raleigh, North Carolina with four hundred dollars to his name, being fired from two jobs in the same week, and taking a job as a custodian earning eight dollars and twenty five cents an hour The rock bottom moment on a custodial shift that became his wake up call and the beginning of phase two of his life The J.K. Rowling quote that shaped his outlook, rock bottom is the moment that rebuilt my life, and the parallel of Rowling writing Harry Potter while living in her car Marques' journey into professional speaking, starting in September 2013 and going two and a half years before his first paid engagement in April 2016 Meeting Mel Robbins in 2018, getting coached, learning the business, and going on to work with more than ninety Fortune 500 companies Becoming a six time best selling author, with a seventh book, Built From The Storm, The Bison Operating System, currently in progress The Bison mindset, a leadership framework built around being bold, having integrity, practicing self awareness, taking ownership, and never quitting Why bison move as a herd through a storm, protecting the weaker, older, and younger members while the strong and bold face the brunt of the storm, and what that teaches us about leadership and community The idea of purpose driven leadership, and why this phase of Marques' life feels more meaningful to him than football or business ever did Julie's own story of rock bottom during her divorce, and the parallels between her journey and Marques' story of resilience The importance of authenticity and vulnerability in leadership, and why judgment should never stop anyone from telling their real story A favorite quote from Franklin Delano Roosevelt, smooth seas never made skilled sailors, and what it means to grow through hardship rather than ease This conversation is filled with ingredients for success, insight on resilience, and encouragement for anyone facing their own storm right now.

Every educator who has stepped into a leadership role has felt some version of the question: Who am I to be the one in charge here? The doubt gets louder, not smaller, the more responsibility someone takes on, even when every promotion was earned on results that should have settled the question entirely.There is a specific reason for that. The instinct to read what students and colleagues need, to keep the room steady, to put relationships at the center of how you teach and lead, is what makes someone good at this work, and it is also the instinct that, taken into a leadership moment, can shift into needing everyone's approval to feel like you're doing it right. Leadership asks you to make decisions people will not always like, to hold positions that disappoint someone in the room, and to trust your own judgment when no one is going to confirm you've got it right, and for people whose whole craft is built on attunement to others, that is the harder part of the job, and almost nobody names it out loud.This edWeb podcast is built around Dr. Bill George's Five Dimensions of Authentic Leadership, interpreted through the lens of educators and people-pleasers who got here by being excellent at a completely different job, exploring what it actually looks like to lead from trust in yourself instead of approval from everyone else, whether the room you're leading has 30 kids in it or 30 adults.This edWeb podcast is for you if…You got promoted because you were excellent at the work, and now you sometimes wonder if you tricked everyone into thinking you could do this jobYou came up through the classroom and leadership is asking for something completely different from what made you great at teachingYou are the person your team comes to with everything, and you are starting to feel the weight of thatYou have been told to just be yourself as a leader and found that advice spectacularly unhelpfulYou care so much about getting it right that the caring itself has started to feel like the problemYou leave with…A clear understanding of why imposter syndrome is a predictable feature of the practitioner-to-leader path, not something wrong with youLanguage for what is actually happening when leadership feels harder than it should, so you can stop treating it like a personal flawThe ability to spot where your people-pleasing instincts are serving your team and where they are running the show in ways that cost everyoneA real distinction between being liked and being trusted, and why that gap matters more in education than almost anywhere elseAt least one concrete reframe for a leadership challenge you are facing right now, drawn from Dr. Bill George's Five Dimensions interpreted through the lens of people who got here by caring deeply about everyone elseBuy The Imposter's Guide to Authentic Leadership by Lori Kirksted here.Learn more about viewing live edWeb presentations and on-demand recordings, earning CE certificates, and using accessibility features.

What happens when the very traits that helped you succeed become the ones that push you towards burnout? In this episode of ScaleUp Radio, Kevin Brent sits down with Daniel Glyde, founder of Positive Masculinity, to explore how business owners and leaders can build sustainable success by developing a healthier relationship with themselves first. Daniel shares his personal journey from BBC producer to coach, following a severe burnout and panic attack in 2018. His experience led him to challenge the traditional expectations many men place on themselves and ultimately build a business focused on helping men create authentic identities, stronger self-belief and healthier lives. The conversation explores why so many founders fall into people-pleasing, perfectionism and overwork, and how setting boundaries can actually improve performance, leadership and business growth. In this episode: Daniel's journey from burnout to business owner How years of emotional suppression and people-pleasing led to chronic anxiety and burnout The wake-up call that forced him to reassess his priorities Why putting yourself first is not selfish but essential Understanding Positive Masculinity Daniel's framework is built around three core principles: Know yourself Be yourself Love yourself Together these help men develop an authentic identity based on values rather than external validation. The hidden cost of people-pleasing Daniel explains the difference between: Being kind and supportive Saying yes when you really mean no He shares why many founders unintentionally create stress, resentment and poor performance by failing to establish healthy boundaries. Building a business through community Daniel has created a three-level business model: A free WhatsApp community with weekly accountability and support A paid mastermind programme focused on peak performance Premium one-to-one coaching helping clients overcome procrastination, perfectionism and self-doubt What leaders can learn from authenticity The discussion explores: Why vulnerability builds trust The power of saying "I don't know" How leaders can model healthier behaviours for their teams Creating cultures that support wellbeing without sacrificing performance Daniel's non-negotiables for peak performance 8+ hours sleep 30+ minutes meditation daily 30+ minutes walking daily 2+ hours of genuine rest every day Daniel can be found here https://www.linkedin.com/in/danglydecoach/?skipRedirect=true https://danglydecoach.co.uk/ Books that shaped Daniel's thinking Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself – Dr Joe Dispenza - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/breaking-the-habit-of-being-yourself-how-to-lose-your-mind-and-create-a-new-one-dr-joe-dispenza/6fd49b57c6281cf2?ean=9781848508569&bkshp-astro=t The Power of Now – Eckhart Tolle - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/the-power-of-now-the-global-phenomenon-a-guide-to-spiritual-enlightenment-eckhart-tolle/45ac3c2e9da05aa3?ean=9780340733509&bkshp-astro=t A Return to Love – Marianne Williamson - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/a-return-to-love-reflections-on-the-principles-of-a-course-in-miracles-marianne-williamson/c3694c5bdc882349?ean=9780722532997&bkshp-astro=t Conversations with God – Neale Donald Walsch - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/conversations-with-god-neale-donald-walsch/fd5674b3bef4bbd3?ean=9780340693254&bkshp-astro=t Technology helping Daniel scale Daniel uses Claude AI extensively for research, content creation and automating parts of his outreach process. - https://claude.ai/ The one key thing Many founders believe they need to sacrifice themselves to build a successful business.

In this episode of Stop Sabotaging Your Success, Cindy Esliger dives into why building professional relationships can feel uncomfortable, especially for women working in engineering, STEM, and other male-dominated environments. While technical competence matters, Cindy explains that career growth is also shaped by the informal networks we build through interaction. She discusses keeping everyone at arm's length to protect professional credibility and becoming the person everyone relies on emotionally, showing how both extremes can limit career opportunities, making a case for true connection. Cindy shares six common pitfalls that quietly undermine our success: 1. confusing boundaries with walls, 2. becoming everyone's person without receiving support in return, 3. dismissing connection as frivolous or unproductive, 4. showing up as all business and wondering why people think we're cold, 5. Letting fear of seeming weak prevent us from being human, and 6. assuming others will not reciprocate our first offer of connection. She also reframes three limiting beliefs that keep many professionals isolated. Strength is not handling everything alone. Workplaces are not always unsafe for authentic connection. Enduring is not the same as thriving. Cindy then shares practical strategies for building stronger relationships. Cindy emphasizes that engaging with colleagues is not a distraction from the work. It's part of the work. Strong professional relationships improve team dynamics, encourage innovation, create opportunities, and provide the reciprocal support needed to prevent burnout. She challenges listeners to begin with one simple action by asking a colleague a genuine question before their next meeting and listening with curiosity. Building meaningful professional relationships is a skill that grows with practice, and taking the first step can transform both career success and everyday work life.

Most people think of a Marine general and picture a lifetime of infantry commands and combat deployments. They'd be right about Dave Bellon but they'd be missing half the story.In this conversation, Lieutenant General Dave Bellon (Ret.) pulls back the curtain on the parts of his career he rarely talks about: switching from JAG officer to infantry lieutenant, back to JAG, and into a capital murder defense case that put him at the center of one of Camp Pendleton's most high-profile court martials defending a Marine convicted of killing a fellow officer in broad daylight. Then there's the story of Task Force Scorpion, a rocket strike that took out a regimental commander within days of his arrival, and a chaplain who cleared the room and gave two majors communion before sending them back to fight.Dave and I have been friends since TBS, and this episode is about what you learn watching someone you've known since they were a lieutenant become a three-star general and what he learned along the way about command, compassion, humility, and what actually matters when the uniform comes off.FOLLOW, SUBSCRIBE, AND SUPPORTJoin the Moments in Leadership Supercast communityhttps://mil.supercast.com/Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/moments-in-leadership/id1547856712Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/1hQl53NzCiJwlWS9xQZFw9YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@MomentsinLeadershipOfficial Websitehttps://www.momentsinleadership.com

Marie Claire Lim Moore has built one of the most remarkable careers in corporate Asia.CEO of TransUnion Asia Pacific. Author of two books. TEDx speaker. Mother of three. A Filipina immigrant who climbed to the top of one of the world's leading data and analytics companies without ever pretending to be someone she wasn't.But this conversation isn't about the résumé.It's about what the résumé costs. And what it's worth.Ten years ago, Claire stood on a TEDx stage and asked a question that stopped rooms: how can we have so many tiger moms and so few tiger women? Asian women dominate classrooms, top university rankings, and outperform in early careers. Then, somewhere between ambition and expectation, they disappear from the leadership table.A decade later, the numbers are moving. But the inner game, the guilt, the fear, the daily negotiation between who you are at work and who you are at home, that part hasn't changed.Claire is one of the most honest voices on what it actually looks like to lead 500 people across Asia Pacific, raise three teenagers, stay married for 17 years, and still feel afraid of disappointing the people you love most.Not the polished version. The real one.We talk about the moment her parents' disappointment, over a forgotten bar of soap, inspired a bestselling book and reminded her never to forget where she came from. We talk about the mentor who told her: at work, you're replaceable, at home, you're not and how that one line became a decision-making framework. We talk about why perfectionism is just fear in disguise, why work-life balance is useless as a philosophy but powerful as a daily practice, and why the question isn't whether you can have it all, it's whether you're asking the right question in the first place.And at the end, she answers the one question no host has ever asked her.The answer will stay with you.Apply to work with me: https://www.michaelxcampion.com/Connect with me: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelxcampion/Guest - Marie Claire Lim Moore: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marieclairelimmoore/Marie Claire Lim Moore is the CEO of TransUnion Asia Pacific, leading a team of approximately 500 people across the region.

Authentic leadership is often discussed in terms of strategy, communication, or influence, but at its core, leadership is ultimately built on trust. Teams, customers, audiences, and organizations consistently evaluate whether leaders follow through on commitments, demonstrate integrity, and remain consistent in how they show up personally and professionally. In today's environment, trust has become one of the most valuable leadership assets a person or organization can build. Consumers are more skeptical, employees expect greater transparency, and audiences are increasingly drawn toward leaders who communicate authentically rather than performatively. In many industries, leadership credibility is no longer established solely through titles or expertise. It is earned through consistency, accountability, and the ability to keep commitments over time. This idea sits at the center of Jason Hewlett's leadership philosophy known as "The Promise." The concept challenges leaders to think beyond goals and focus instead on the promises they make to themselves, their families, their teams, their customers, and the people they influence. While goals can shift or evolve, promises carry a deeper sense of personal responsibility and integrity. One of the most important distinctions between goals and promises is emotional commitment. Many people set ambitious goals at the beginning of the year, only to abandon them when challenges arise or motivation fades. Promises operate differently because they are tied more closely to identity, consistency, and personal accountability. They create a stronger emotional connection to follow-through and discipline. This matters significantly in leadership. Organizations often spend extensive time developing mission statements, core values, and customer service standards, yet employees and customers ultimately evaluate leadership based on observable behavior. Trust is built when actions consistently align with stated values. Authentic leadership requires more than simply communicating a vision. It requires showing up consistently, especially during uncertainty, pressure, or adversity. Teams often pay closer attention to how leaders respond during difficult moments than during periods of stability. Integrity becomes visible through small decisions, repeated behaviors, and the willingness to maintain commitments even when circumstances become inconvenient. The conversation around leadership has also changed dramatically in recent years. Since 2020, organizations across nearly every industry have faced economic disruption, political tension, workforce changes, technological acceleration, and shifting customer expectations. In environments filled with uncertainty, people naturally seek leaders who communicate with clarity, consistency, and authenticity. At the same time, technology and artificial intelligence continue transforming how people access information. Knowledge alone is becoming increasingly commoditized. AI tools can summarize information, automate communication, and generate content rapidly. As a result, the value of authentic human connection continues increasing. Leadership today depends less on simply possessing information and more on the ability to communicate wisdom, empathy, trust, and emotional intelligence. This shift is especially important for speakers, entrepreneurs, and business leaders whose influence depends on relationships. Authenticity is difficult to automate. People are increasingly drawn toward leaders who demonstrate vulnerability, consistency, and genuine human connection rather than polished perfection. Audiences want leaders who communicate with honesty, stand behind their values, and remain aligned with their message both on and off stage. One of the most compelling aspects of authentic leadership is that it often reveals itself through small, seemingly insignificant actions. Integrity is reinforced through everyday decisions. Following through on commitments, treating people respectfully, honoring responsibilities, and remaining consistent during adversity all contribute to long-term credibility. Over time, these repeated behaviors shape personal reputation and organizational culture. Consistency also plays a major role in trust-building. Many leaders pursue large transformational goals while overlooking the impact of smaller daily habits. Sustainable growth often occurs through repeated incremental actions rather than dramatic moments. Small improvements compounded over time frequently create larger results than short bursts of motivation or temporary intensity. Another important element of authentic leadership is adaptability without sacrificing values. Leaders today face rapidly changing environments that require flexibility and innovation. However, adaptability becomes far more effective when grounded in clear principles and consistent behavior. Organizations that evolve while maintaining strong leadership integrity are often better positioned for long-term stability and growth. Authentic leadership also influences culture. Teams frequently mirror the behavior demonstrated by leadership. When leaders communicate transparently, follow through consistently, and operate with integrity, those standards often become embedded within the organization itself. Culture is shaped less by slogans and more by the behaviors leaders repeatedly model. The strongest leaders understand that trust is not built through isolated moments. It is built through repeated consistency over time. In an increasingly distracted and automated world, authentic leadership may ultimately become one of the most valuable competitive advantages a business or individual can develop.

Why the best leaders treat uncertainty as a chance to learn, not a failure to avoid.Most companies are built to grow. Far fewer are built to stay true to their purpose as they do.Eric Ries is an entrepreneur, creator of the Lean Startup movement, and author of Incorruptible: Why Good Companies Go Bad and How Great Companies Stay Great. For Ries, innovation starts with a simple reality: nobody can predict the future. “If you're going to do something fundamentally new,” he says, “how are we supposed to forecast” what success will look like? Instead of relying on certainty, leaders should focus on learning. “If you cannot fail, you cannot learn.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Ries and host Matt Abrahams explore how leaders can communicate through uncertainty, turn setbacks into valuable insights, and build cultures rooted in trust. From the power of the build-measure-learn feedback loop to the importance of making “deposits” in a company's culture bank, Ries shares practical strategies for creating organizations that innovate, adapt, and stay true to their values as they grow.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Eric RiesEric's Book: IncorruptibleEp.56 Lean Messaging: How Simple Messages Really StickEp.54 Leadership and Ethics: How to Communicate Your Core Values  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:21) - Lean Startup Fundamentals (04:03) - Business Plans vs. Reality (06:31) - Learning from Failure (08:11) - Why Companies Go Bad (10:49) - The Culture Bank (13:51) - The Final Three Questions (22:05) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Unleash your Superhuman potential with AI that meets you where you work.

Most leaders are carrying an energetic weight they were never meant to hold alone. In our current professional climate, those committed to equity and belonging face a quiet but painful trend: being hushed—subtly or overtly signaled to continue their transformative work with less organizational support, shrinking budgets, and higher personal risk. The resulting collective grief is not an abstract concept; it is a physical weight carried in our tissues. In this special debrief episode, Rhodes Perry sits down with yoga therapist and fellow Reiki Master practitioner, Chrissy Hoffman, to look back on their very first Collective Peace Share. Together, they pull back the curtain on their initial hesitations, share participants' breakthroughs, and explore how dropping our professional armor allows us to move from isolated survival strategies to communal aliveness. Doing the Inner Work In a workplace landscape that often feels upside-down, navigating the grief of transition requires turning our focus inward. This conversation explores how leaders can build the internal resilience necessary to navigate systemic setbacks by: Overcoming the Fear of "Too Woo." Moving past the ego's anxiety about blending high-performance leadership strategy with deep, intuitive spiritual healing. The Shift from "Fighting" to "Healing." Discerning the natural evolution in a values-driven leader's journey from early career "truth and justice" activism to sustainable "love and healing" frameworks. Communal Grief Integration. Re-learning how to process structural loss and exhaustion collectively rather than internalizing stress as an emotional sponge. The Architecture of Leading Embodied. Using ancient energetic hygiene tools to self-regulate, unlock creative business flows, and clear the mental static caused by external uncertainty. Episode Highlights [00:02:31] Naming Today's Reality. Rhodes addresses the profound sense of grief professionals are facing due to anti-DEI rollbacks, framing collective grief through the lens of Francis Weller's The Wild Edge of Sorrow: it was never meant to be carried in isolation. [00:04:20] Tracking the Resistance. Rhodes shares his initial hesitation to pitch this gathering to executives and entrepreneurs racing to adapt to AI and technological disruption, and how moving through his own resistance revealed a massive collective craving for a supportive container. [00:05:48] "I Have Been Waiting For This." Chrissy and Rhodes share moving feedback from a participant—a seasoned divorce attorney—who highlighted how desperately professional leaders need spaces where they can step out of "facilitator" mode and drop their protective armor. [00:11:33] Truth & Justice vs. Love & Healing. Inspired by a recent energetic shift, Rhodes outlines the evolution of his professional life: transitioning from a fiery younger advocate focused on dismantling oppressive structures, to a creative healer centering empathy, somatic wisdom, and organizational belonging. [00:16:22] Corrupt Systems, Not Human Enemies. Chrissy reflects on a powerful lesson from activist Mahmood Khalil: "No human is the enemy; corrupt systems are the enemy." She shares how shifting away from an immediate trigger response allows leaders to practice deep humility and listen with greater flexibility. [00:21:06] Previewing Lead Embodied. Rhodes reveals how editing his upcoming book, Lead Embodied: Roads Less Traveled to Authentic Leadership, served as his own medicine at the start of the year, reminding him that changing our internal shapes is a prerequisite for co-creating a space of external belonging. [00:27:37] The Three Pillars of Collective Practice. A breakdown of the core organizing principles of the Peace Share: Presence (holding the now without anxiety), Influence (focusing on our internal state), and Somatic Gratitude (anchoring to what is real right now rather than spiritual bypassing). "I love that you are looking specifically at grief—and how holding space for it, infused with the energy of love—which is what Reiki is—is what is most needed now. If we are to contain all that peace requires, we must learn to hold the frequency of heartbreak." — Yael Flusberg, Yoga Therapist and Reiki Master Teacher Show Notes & Resources

Summary Authentic leadership is about leading from your strengths rather than changing who you are to meet others’ expectations. In this episode of The Leadership Habit Podcast, executive coach Dale Wilsher explains the leadership double bind, explores how workplace bias shapes perceptions of leadership, and shares practical strategies for balancing warmth and competence to build greater influence, executive presence, and leadership effectiveness. Many leaders spend years trying to become the person they believe they need to be in order to succeed. They speak differently, hold back ideas, soften their opinions, or adopt leadership styles that feel unnatural. Often, these changes stem from feedback, workplace expectations, or assumptions about what leadership should look like. The challenge is that when leaders focus too heavily on fitting a mold, they can lose sight of the qualities that make them effective in the first place. In the latest episode of The Leadership Habit Podcast, host Jenn DeWall sits down with Dale Wilsher to discuss authentic leadership, executive presence, workplace bias, and the “leadership double bind”. Their conversation offers valuable insights for leaders who want to increase their influence without sacrificing who they are. Meet Dale Wilsher, Executive Life and Leadership Coach Dale Wilsher is an executive life and leadership coach, keynote speaker, and founder of Your Authentic Personality. For more than a decade, she has helped professionals better understand themselves, build confidence, and lead with greater authenticity. She is also the author of an award-winning book on personality and human potential and is currently writing a new book focused on identity, self-awareness, and leadership. Through coaching, speaking, and leadership development programs, Wilsher helps individuals align who they are with how they lead so they can maximize their potential without compromising their authentic strengths. What Is the Leadership Double Bind? One of the central topics discussed in the episode is the leadership double bind. The double bind refers to a no-win situation in which leaders face competing expectations. Wilsher explains that women, in particular, often experience a tension between being perceived as competent and as likable. Leaders may be viewed as too soft or too tough, too collaborative or too direct, but rarely “just right.” While the double bind is most commonly discussed in the context of women in leadership, the broader lesson applies to leaders of all backgrounds. Many professionals feel pressure to suppress parts of their personality in order to align with traditional expectations of leadership. According to research discussed during the episode, the most influential leaders demonstrate both warmth and strength. In other words, people must be able to answer “yes” to two critical questions: Do you care about me? Can you deliver results? Leaders who consistently communicate both are often viewed as more effective, trustworthy, and influential. Why Authentic Leadership Matters A powerful theme throughout the conversation is that authentic leadership is not about becoming someone else. Too often, leaders receive feedback focused on their personality rather than their performance. Wilsher notes that this type of feedback can cause people to question who they are instead of helping them improve what they do. As a result, many leaders begin to modify or hide their natural tendencies in an effort to meet expectations. The problem is that authentic strengths and perceived weaknesses are often connected. A leader who is highly direct may also be exceptionally decisive. A leader who is highly relational may also excel at collaboration and inclusion. When leaders try to eliminate traits that others criticize, they often diminish the strengths associated with those traits as well. Authentic leadership starts with understanding your natural tendencies and learning how to expand your effectiveness without abandoning your strengths. Stop Subtracting Yourself Perhaps the most memorable lesson from the episode is Wilsher’s advice to leaders: Don’t subtract yourself. When leaders receive critical feedback, their instinct is often to become less visible, less outspoken, or less themselves. They begin removing parts of their personality to avoid criticism. Wilsher encourages leaders to take a different approach. Instead of subtracting, add. Rather than suppressing your strengths, identify complementary behaviors that help others experience your leadership more effectively. A direct leader may need to add empathy. A highly collaborative leader may need to add decisiveness. A relationship-focused leader may need to communicate recommendations with greater confidence. The goal is not to become a different person. The goal is to become a more complete leader. Balancing Warmth and Competence The discussion also offers practical strategies for strengthening leadership presence. Leaders who naturally prioritize relationships can benefit from demonstrating greater confidence and authority through concise communication, clear recommendations, and stronger ownership of accomplishments. Small changes in language can significantly influence how others perceive leadership presence. One of Wilsher’s most practical pieces of advice focuses on how leaders communicate expertise and confidence. Many professionals unintentionally weaken their authority by using minimizing language such as “Does that make sense?” or by downplaying their recommendations. Instead, leaders can communicate with greater confidence while remaining approachable. As Wilsher explains: “There are stronger ways to check in with people than giving away too much of your authority or power when you lead with data; I say you can speak softly as long as you carry a big statistic.” The lesson is simple but powerful: leadership presence does not require being the loudest person in the room. Leaders can build influence by supporting their recommendations with facts, evidence, and clear reasoning, and by communicating with confidence and clarity. Meanwhile, leaders who naturally prioritize tasks and results can strengthen their influence by intentionally demonstrating warmth. Inviting collaboration, expressing gratitude, seeking input, and communicating care for others can help build trust and engagement without sacrificing accountability. Neither approach is inherently better. The most effective leaders understand their natural strengths and intentionally develop complementary skills that help them connect with a broader range of people and situations. Authentic Leadership Strengthens Teams Authentic leadership benefits more than the individual leader. Organizations perform best when they embrace diverse leadership styles rather than expecting everyone to lead the same way. Teams gain stronger perspectives, greater innovation, and better decision-making when leaders bring different strengths to the table. As Wilsher points out, individuals should not be expected to be all things to all people. That is the role of the team. When leaders understand and value different leadership styles, they create environments where people can contribute their unique strengths while still working toward shared goals. The result is a more engaged, adaptable, and high-performing organization.

Authentic Leadership Is About Expansion, Not Reinvention Leadership is not about fitting someone else’s definition of success. It is about understanding your strengths, recognizing your blind spots, and developing the skills needed to lead more effectively. The strongest leaders do not succeed because they have eliminated every weakness. They succeed because they have learned how to build on their strengths while adding the capabilities needed to connect with others. Dale Wilsher’s message is a powerful reminder that effective leadership is not about shrinking yourself to meet someone else’s expectations. It’s about becoming more intentional, more self-aware, and more capable while remaining true to who you are. At Crestcom, we believe leadership development should help leaders become more effective versions of themselves—not force them into a one-size-fits-all leadership model. Through live-facilitated learning, coaching, accountability, and real-world application, Crestcom helps leaders develop the self-awareness, communication skills, and confidence needed to lead authentically and deliver meaningful results.

Have you ever worked so hard for a promotion or achievement, only to realize when you get there, it feels fleeting and unfulfilling? In this episode, we explore embodied leadership and how authentic impact comes from cultivating a deep inner connection rather than chasing external validation.The Myth of External Fulfillment: Katherine Patrullo describes her journey of seeking validation and lasting confidence through external achievements and how it ultimately left her feeling empty until she turned inward and embraced self-connection and embodiment.Redefining Leadership: Many women arrive at moments of "success" expecting fulfillment, but find themselves disconnected because they followed a linear, strategy-based leadership model instead of aligning leadership style to their authentic self.Embodied Practices & Tantric Philosophy: Katherine shares how tools from tantra, kundalini, and Taoist philosophy help women reconnect to their bodies, process emotions, and cultivate internal safety—which are vital for sustainable influence and resiliency.The Power of Integration: Meaningful change doesn't come just from a single practice or breakthrough moment; it's about integrating those insights into everyday micro-moments and being compassionate with the “shadow” and the nervous system along the way.Resourcefulness and Self-Compassion: The journey to embodied leadership involves honoring past coping mechanisms, resourcing yourself through tools like breathwork and somatic safety, and taking radical responsibility for how you show up as a leader.TLDR: If you're a woman seeking purpose, power, and sustainable impact, look inward—embodied leadership isn't about a job title or outside reward, but about cultivating a resourced and authentic sense of self that you can bring to every facet of life and leadership. Integration and inner safety are the real game-changers.Thank you for listening!If this episode inspired you, please screenshot and share it on social media—be sure to tag @meganswanwellness so we can cheer you on.

That Solo Life Episode 341: The Leap, the AI Edge and Authentic Leadership Episode Summary Kara Ryan spent 20 years of her career navigating corporate communications in some of the most regulated industries in the world - financial services, healthcare, and medical devices. In April of this year, she closed that chapter and opened Klyr Strategies, a solo communications advisory built upon the high-stakes moments that her clients face, such as product launches, leadership transitions, acquisitions, and IPO preparation. She joins Karen and Michelle just weeks into her solo journey, which makes this conversation something rare, equal parts seasoned practitioner wisdom and unfiltered, real-time solopreneur start-up experience. The conversation covers the financial math and mindset behind making the leap, the structural surprises that hit early, and how Kara's "advisor-led and AI-powered" approach works in practice — including why she's upfront with clients about using AI and how she keeps their data secure. She also shares her strongest professional conviction: that authenticity in leadership communication is a strategic discipline, not a personality trait, and that communicators are uniquely positioned to address it. This is a conversation for anyone who has done all the right things in corporate and still feels like something is missing.   Episode Highlights [02:29] The Slow Burn Decision to Go Solo: Kara always pictured working for herself — but it took 20 years, a turning-40 moment of reflection, and the realization that the job market wasn't going to rescue her to finally make the leap. She filed her LLC paperwork two years before she actually left, which says everything about how long the mental preparation can take. Her framing of "perceived security" resonated deeply with Karen and Michelle: the steady paycheck and benefits that feel like stability are increasingly anything but. [06:17] Why a Tough Job Market Is an Argument for Going Solo: Kara makes a counter-intuitive case: watching talented, experienced mid-to-senior communications professionals spend six, nine, or twelve months searching for their next role wasn't a reason to wait — it was a reason to move. She chose to create her own security rather than compete for a shrinking pool of roles. The calculus is different when you're in charge, but at least you're the one doing it. [09:11] The Real Surprises of Early Solo Life: Weeks in, the biggest surprise for Kara has been structure — in two senses. The rhythmic structure of corporate life (a desk, a schedule, a team) simply disappears, replaced by something more fluid and self-directed. And then there's business structure in the legal and financial sense: entity type, tax implications, and what it actually means to be both the employee and the employer. None of it is impossible, but none of it is as straightforward as it looks from the outside. [17:42] What "Advisor-Led and AI-Powered" Actually Means: Kara is intentionally transparent about using AI — it's front and center on her website and LinkedIn — because she wants clients to ask her about it. In practice, AI handles the research and monitoring work that would otherwise consume her mornings: a daily media scan, a customized briefing, a business development follow-up queue, all delivered before she sits down to work. She's not using AI to draft comms plans; she's using it to stress-test the ones she writes. The distinction matters, especially with clients in regulated industries where data security isn't optional. [22:25] Bring Comms to the Table Before the Decision Is Made: Kara's most consistent frustration from 20 years in corporate: communications professionals are brought in after the decision has already been made. The announcement is written. Now communicate it. But that's where the real opportunity is lost. Comms can inform the decision itself — reading the room, flagging what employees are already feeling, identifying timing conflicts in the news landscape — but only if practitioners are included early. It's not about ego. It's about outcomes. [25:17] Thinking About All the Audiences, Not Just the Obvious One: When a leadership transition is announced, the C-suite is often focused on one key audience — investors, say, or the board. Kara's job is to hold the full map: employees, customers, partners, media, and community. Each audience needs something different from the same moment. That multi-audience perspective is something communicators bring that AI and algorithms can't replicate, and it's one of the clearest arguments for bringing comms in before the decision, not after. [26:58] The Case for Communicating Less: A provocative take from someone whose business is communications: sometimes the most strategic thing you can do is recommend less of it. Kara has worked in organizations with hundreds of communications professionals and organizations with none — and the sky didn't fall in either place. What matters is the right message, from the right person, to the right audience. Blasting every channel because you have them is not a strategy. It's noise, and it trains people to tune you out. [38:18] Authenticity Is Kara's Signature Topic — and Her Strongest Conviction: After two decades of watching leaders transform at the podium — warm and candid in the hallway, robotic and on-script in front of an audience — Kara has landed on authenticity as her defining professional issue. Not because it's a buzzword, but because the gap between who a leader is and how they communicate creates a trust deficit that messages alone can't close. The good news: it's coachable. The harder truth: some leaders won't be coached, and sometimes the right answer is to find a different spokesperson for that moment.   About Kara Ryan Kara Ryan is the founder and principal of Klyr Strategies (pronounced "clear"), a communications advisory serving small to mid-size companies in the medical device and healthcare space. Kara spent 20 years in corporate communications, working across financial services and highly regulated healthcare environments, with deep expertise in the high-stakes moments that define organizations: product launches, leadership transitions, acquisitions, and IPO preparation. She is based in Orange County, California — a hub for medical device manufacturers — and brings boardroom-level experience to clients who are doing big things without an in-house communications team to support them. She describes her practice as advisor-led and AI-powered, is transparent with clients about how and why she uses AI tools, and takes data security seriously as a non-negotiable.

Leadership is often viewed through the lens of decisiveness. Direct orders and quick thinking. But the most impactful modern leaders are those who prioritize collaboration, and remain present in their leadership roles.I've been thinking about the future, and today's junior Marines are different: researchers, thinkers, and seekers of authenticity. They aren't afraid to ask the hard questions. In this candid conversation, Sergeant Major Carlos Ruiz and I explore why leaders must shift from issuing orders to showing genuine interest and investing in an individual Marine's life through the "one Marine" theory: how a single individual can turn an entire battalion around.Whether discussing the evolution of "field day" or the weight of addressing mental health and fitness, Carlos emphasizes that the Marine Corps is a tribe that must constantly be taught its ethics, its culture, and its worth. We talked about executive presence, senior enlisted slating, and the "Message to Garcia" mindset. Today's leadership has a mandate to ensure every Marine whether staying in or transitioning out is prepared for the life that follows their service. Watch the full video episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Ip9JCSQ7x5U

Langton explains her CTG methodology, connect, trust, grow, emphasizing authentic connection to overcome resistance to change, trust built through leadership and data to scale beyond pilots, and growth through iterative wins. She shares how purpose rooted in personal adversity fueled her leadership, how aligning personal mission with organizational priorities creates transformation, and why technology and AI require a “human path” for adoption by building with, not for, stakeholders.KEY TAKEAWAYSAuthentic connection must come before trust , and trust must come before growth. Skip one, and the whole framework breaks.Your personal "why" is your most powerful sales asset. Aligning your purpose to your client's or organization's greatest need creates unstoppable momentum.You don't need to be the expert , you need to connect the experts. Leadership and sales are about asking the right questions and keeping everyone aligned to one mission.Build with people, not for them. Co-creation drives adoption; top-down mandates don't.Data empowers people, it doesn't replace them. The human path to adoption is just as critical as the technical solution.Adversity can become your superpower. Lived experience creates authentic credibility that no credential can replicate.HIGHLIGHT QUOTESIf you don't connect, your stakeholders will resist. If you skip trust, what you're building will never scale beyond a pilot.Technical playbooks don't create change, people do.People follow the version of you that's true.We built with, and not for, them. That's how we empowered them.Every time an injury was predicted or prevented, it was me winning back a piece of myself.ADDITIONAL RESOURCESExplore the secrets of heart-centered leadership and thriving workplace cultures with Culture from the Heart Podcast!

Most leadership advice tells you to “just be authentic.” But what happens when the workplace pressures you to become someone else? In this episode of Deep Leadership, I sit down with leadership coach, consultant, and author Dr. Rashida Leverett to explore why authentic leadership is so difficult in today's workplace. Drawing from over 30 years of experience in the military, government, higher education, and corporate leadership, Rashida explains how many leaders struggle with what she calls “identity fragmentation” — becoming one person at work and another everywhere else. We discuss: Why middle managers are often the most overlooked leaders in organizations The trust gap created when leaders say one thing but do another How leaders lose credibility without realizing it Why self-awareness and emotional intelligence matter more than ever Rashida's “Four Sights of Visionary Leadership” framework: foresight, insight, hindsight, and oversight How to integrate your values into leadership without becoming performative or preachy This conversation is packed with practical leadership wisdom for anyone trying to lead with integrity, clarity, and conviction in a complicated world.
