Leaders are built on purpose, not on PR. In this powerful and heart-opening episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with Kevin Edwards, President—and soon-to-be CEO—of Real Leaders, a leadership platform that champions purpose-driven CEOs and companies making an impact. Kevin and I dive into what it means to lead with authenticity, how Real Leaders is challenging the Forbes status quo, and why being seen as more than just a title matters—because behind every CEO, founder, or entrepreneur is a human being with struggles, dreams, and a purpose worth pursuing. From his humble beginnings as an intern to becoming the driving force behind a global media brand, Kevin shares his journey, the lessons he's learned interviewing 500+ leaders (including Gary Vee, Jay Shetty, and Mel Robbins), and how his mission is rooted in one powerful belief: that leaders who show up authentically transform lives. What We Talk About • Why Real Leaders is redefining what it means to be an “impact company” • The six elements of real impact using their I.M.P.A.C.T. framework • Kevin's personal journey from intern to CEO—and how purpose guided every step • The role of authenticity in leadership (especially in an AI-driven world) • Why leadership must be seen as a vocation, not just a title • The challenge of showing up as your real self even when it's uncomfortable • How to empower people to believe in themselves through your leadership Why You Should Listen This episode is a raw, real, and uplifting conversation that reminds us: being a great leader isn't about having all the answers—it's about creating environments where others can believe in themselves, grow, and thrive. Whether you're a seasoned CEO, a new manager, or someone thinking about your next chapter, Kevin's insights will inspire you to lead with more heart, vision, and courage. Key Takeaways 1. Leadership is a Vocation: We must start treating leadership like we do engineering or accounting—it requires intentional learning, accountability, and refinement. 2. Authenticity Wins: In a world increasingly filtered through AI, the leaders who will stand out are those who keep it real. 3. Impact is More Than ESG: Real Leaders uses a powerful I.M.P.A.C.T. framework—Intention, Model, People, Accountability, Collaboration, Transforming lives—to spotlight leaders who go beyond profit to serve purpose. 4. Build Your Brand and Your Business: Your personal growth as a leader can and should align with your company's growth. Don't let others tell you otherwise. 5. Great Leaders Help Others See Themselves Differently: The most powerful leadership moves are often the ones that help others feel seen, valued, and capable of more. Quotable Moments “A real leader is someone who helps people see themselves in a better future—and makes the world around them relevant to that vision.” — Kevin Edwards “Leadership isn't about being liked by everyone. It's about being authentic, accountable, and helping others rise—even when it's messy.” — Kerry Siggins Resources Mentioned • Real Leaders Magazine and Membership • Real Leaders Podcast Support Reflect Forward This episode is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and wherever you get your podcasts.

In today's IG live replay, I discuss - 

Send us a textTired of pouring money into digital ads with questionable returns? Imagine commanding a room of your ideal clients for 30-45 minutes, positioning yourself as the trusted expert they need. That's the power of strategic speaking for brand building, and it's a game-changer for founders and business leaders.In this illuminating conversation with Blair Bryant Nichols, owner of BBN Creative Management, we unlock the secrets to leveraging speaking opportunities as your most potent marketing tool. Blair reveals why the traditional conference booth approach pales in comparison to securing a speaking slot, where you gain undivided audience attention and accelerate the know-like-trust curve that converts prospects into clients.One of the most surprising insights? Stop speaking at industry events dominated by your peers and competitors. Instead, identify where your ideal clients gather and position yourself as the singular expert voice in that room. "If you're in HR tech, don't just go to HR tech conferences—go to finance events and be the one HR tech speaker," Blair advises, sharing how this strategic positioning dramatically increases your stand-out factor and conversion potential.For those hesitant to step onto stage, Blair offers practical wisdom for overcoming stage fright and building your speaking platform, even without prior experience. Learn how authentic storytelling creates emotional connections that drive business relationships, and discover specific techniques to make your message memorable long after your presentation ends. From crafting compelling narratives to understanding audience psychology, this episode provides a roadmap for transforming speaking engagements into a powerful brand-building engine.Ready to amplify your voice and authority? Connect with Blair on Instagram or LinkedIn at Blair Bryant Nichols for a free 30-minute strategy call about your speaking journey.

In this episode, Mary Sullivan, co-founder of Sweet but Fearless, talks with Nikki Nash, Investor, Entrepreneur, and Author, about the power of taking shots and making bold moves. She shares how she learned to take a leap of faith—not just in her career but in building her personal brand. Because let's be real, success isn't just about what you do at work; it's about who you are and how you position yourself. Nikki dives into why relationship-building is key—people need to know you, not just your team. Visibility matters, and if no one knows what you bring to the table, opportunities can pass you by. She also drops some serious wisdom on money-making as a skill and how success isn't random—it's strategic. One of her most powerful tips? Your calendar should reflect your goals. If someone looked at your schedule, they should see exactly what you're working toward. It's all about staging your day with intention. Get ready to take notes—you won't want to miss this conversation. Nikki is a veteran marketer, long-time entrepreneur, and speaker who has helped business that generate $35M in annual revenue down to coaches making their first dollar. Before entrepreneurship, she worked at various companies where she had experience working with such brands as Intel, InStyle, Travel + Leisure, and Louis Vuitton MOET Hennessy.  If you found this episode inspiring, please subscribe, like, and leave a comment.   MORE ABOUT NIKKI NASH: Website: Nikki Nash LinkedIn: Nikki Nash Podcast: The Market Your Genius Podcast Book: Market Your Genius   ABOUT SWEET BUT FEARLESS: Website - Sweet but Fearless LinkedIn - Sweet but Fearless
