What if thriving leadership starts with knowing who you are before you walk into the room? In this powerful (and deeply personal) episode of Let's Thrive Together, Brittany N. Cole sits down with international fashion designer, creative consultant, and author of Soft Life, Zintrise Altovise, to explore identity, reinvention, leadership presence, and the power of feminine energy in business. From surviving an ovarian cancer diagnosis to walking away from material success that no longer fulfilled her, Zintrise shares how she rebuilt her life from the inside out. What began as a love for fashion and design evolved into a philosophy of alignment, character, confidence, and intentional presence. This conversation bridges style and strategy, unpacking what a “soft life” really means beyond luxury aesthetics and how inner healing shapes the way leaders show up. It explores why style is a leadership strategy, how confidence is built through fit, fabric, and presence, and how identity is redefined after divorce, loss, and disruption. The episode also dives into the role of faith, therapy, and deep personal work, reframes feminine energy as a source of creativity and power, and reveals how leaders are always communicating before they ever speak. Brittany and Zintrise unpack how personal branding is not about trends. Whether you are navigating reinvention, stepping into a new leadership role, pivoting your career, or refining your executive presence, this episode is a reminder: Freedom is not found in accumulation.It is found in alignment.

What if thriving as a leader requires civic responsibility, not just career success? On today's episode, Brittany N. Cole sits down with Tequila Johnson, founder of The Equity Alliance, global speaker, civic strategist, and Harvard-certified power-building leader, to unpack the intersection of business, politics, power, and purpose. From registering 80,000 Black voters to building a multi-entity organization focused on cultural, economic, and political power, Tequila breaks down what civic engagement really means and why corporate leaders, entrepreneurs, and working professionals can no longer afford to stay disengaged. This conversation explores how power is truly defined by control of resources rather than position, breaking down the role of lobbying in shaping policy and protecting interests, and why many middle-class professionals are pushing back against broken systems.

We're building a facade.” — Tequila Johnson “Before you can put anything on, you have to see yourself, accept yourself, and say it.” — Brittany Cole “Authenticity is recognizing the power you have and being able to stand firmly in that power and own that position.” — Tequila Johnson “Sometimes it is an intentional strategy to keep you civically disengaged.” — Brittany Cole “We voted against the system because it's not working.” — Tequila Johnson “Before you can put anything on, you have to see yourself, accept yourself, and say it.” — Brittany Cole GUEST RESOURCES Tequila Johnson Website | theequityalliance.org RESOURCES Take the Leadership Brand Score Assessment How strong is your leadership brand?

What happens when growth outpaces your infrastructure? In this thought-provoking solo episode of Let's Thrive Together, Brittany N. Cole unpacks a powerful leadership lesson sparked by a massive ice storm that left over 200,000 people without power in Nashville, Tennessee. What actually began as a viral article about infrastructure failure quickly became a deeper conversation about leadership systems, organizational resilience, and the hidden weaknesses inside fast-growing companies. Brittany challenges leaders to look beyond surface-level growth and ask a harder question: Is your organization actually built to sustain the success you're chasing? As she emphasizes, “Infrastructure resilience is the internal capacity of an organization to absorb shock, adapt in real time, and sustain through disruption without breaking.” Drawing on her Resilience Roadmap framework and years of leadership strategy work, Brittany explains how infrastructure resilience applies not just to cities and utilities, but to organizations, leadership teams, and cultures. She breaks down the four phases of resilience at the enterprise level: grief, grit, grace, and growth, and why most organizations skip the critical steps that allow them to adapt and thrive through disruption. This episode is a must-listen for executives, founders, and high-achieving leaders who are navigating growth, scaling teams, or preparing their organizations for the next era of uncertainty. If your company is growing fast but your systems, leadership pipelines, and culture haven't kept pace, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what real resilience looks like. Because thriving organizations don't just recover from disruption. They build forward. KEY POINTS: - The Nashville ice storm that sparked a viral leadership conversation - Why infrastructure failures often reveal deeper leadership failures - The difference between efficiency and resilience in organizations - Why most companies scale faster than their internal systems can support - Understanding people infrastructure, systems infrastructure, leadership infrastructure, and cultural infrastructure - How leaders should communicate during crisis and uncertainty - The danger of infrastructure debt inside organizations - Why psychological safety determines whether problems are raised early - How leaders can design organizations that absorb disruption QUOTES: “Infrastructure resilience isn't just about what you can touch. It's also about who's a part of what's making that system.” — Brittany N. Cole “Most organizations often run on an old system, and we're in a 2026 reality.” — Brittany N. Cole “Grit without acknowledging grief is just grinding. It's not sustainable.” — Brittany N. Cole “Silence in a crisis is abandonment.” — Brittany N. Cole “If you blame people without fixing the system, you'll be right back in the same place, just with a new face.” — Brittany N. Cole “You don't need permission to use your voice. You only need courage.” — Brittany N. Cole RESOURCES Take the Leadership Brand Score Assessment How strong is your leadership brand?

Crystal Guzman's life is a remarkable example of resilience, empathy, and unwavering dedication to mental health advocacy. Drawing from her early experiences supporting foster children and women facing trauma, Crystal developed a mission to bridge gaps in mental health care for underserved communities. Her journey has spanned from hands-on nonprofit work to founding a rapidly growing private practice, always with a focus on inclusive access and collaborative systems that connect professionals, families, and those most in need of help. Through initiatives like her mother-daughter journal and the Get Healthy Directory, she champions intentional connection, community support, and the healing power of sharing our stories. At the heart of Crystal's work is a belief in the necessity of building supportive villages—encouraging families and individuals to seek help, create reciprocal networks, and embrace self-compassion. Her approach to mental health combines practical resource-building with the courage to share her lived experience, reminding others that healing is best achieved together. By destigmatizing therapy and emphasizing grace in personal journeys, Crystal helps others break cycles of silence and self-doubt, while pioneering tools and organizations that expand access to judgement-free care. If Crystal's journey touched you, inspired you, or reminded you that your story isn't over, stay connected with her and the work she leads. Follow her on Instagram or visit GetHealthyDirectory.com to explore the extensive mental health resources she is building—from her expansive practice and nonprofit HOME, which serves underinsured and marginalized communities, to a comprehensive directory helping patients and providers connect with dignity.

This podcast is part of the Money Reckoning series.THE IMPACT. Kazu Haga:Is a trainer, educator, student and practitioner with over 25 years of experience in nonviolence and restorative justice. Weaves in lessons from decades of Buddhist practice and trauma healing work to advance social change and collective healing. Is a core member of the Fierce Vulnerability Network, a founding member of the Ahimsa Collective, a Jam facilitator and author of the books Healing Resistance and Fierce Vulnerability. Teaches nonviolence, conflict reconciliation, restorative justice, organizing and mindfulness in prisons and jails, schools, faith communities and activist movements.Has worked on the gift economy for over 15 years. I particularly recommend his Substack, and the article about how the “gift economy is not free.” THE JOURNEY. In our conversation, we explore:Early influences”Depending on the causes and conditions in our lives, we could be so many different people. We could be Trump supporters, we could be prison guards, we could be an incarcerated person… just based on just the factors in our lives.“Big questions “The point isn't to figure it out. The point is to just be with the question, and have faith that at some point, if we listen deep enough, we'll be guided to the most skillful next step. And that's perhaps all we need to know.”The healing work of nonviolence“ What would happen if, in a nonviolent direct action, instead of yelling and chanting, we held a public grief ritual for everyone to witness? What would happen if, instead of leading with our anger, we led with our heartbreak?”Fierce vulnerability“Can we have the spiritual maturity and the capacity to really see the world for what it is and to not collapse under the weight of it?”“The amount of spiritual energy that it takes to constantly suppress a deeper truth that I think all of us are feeling that something is so deeply wrong with our society … it is sapping us. You see the impact, the mental health epidemics, the depression, the sense of isolation. We're constantly using our energy to, to live in this delusion of everything's fine. Don't look, don't look.” Spaces safe enough to look at the reality of this moment“ In a lot of the spaces that I facilitate, we do this activity where we do like check-ins and the first prompt is, how are you doing? And then the second prompt is, how are you really doing? And then the third prompt is, how are you really, really doing? We so rarely have an opportunity to slow down enough, just to say, how am I actually doing, in the midst of post pandemic and war and genocide and polarization and the rise of authoritarianism, and ecological collapse?”Reckoning with capitalism ”People are slowly realizing more and more how unsustainable the capitalist system is. Those are scary moments. Because capitalism is all we've ever known. A lot of us believe that if capitalism fails, there'll be complete lawlessness. So just to create space for people to be with that fear, let them know that the fear is real, it's legitimate. And at some point I think there'll be openness to hear that there are other ways that we can organize society.”The gift economy“The gift economy is one way to really imagine: how do we share resources, distribute resources, manage our shared resources in a way that understands that we are a communal species. It's not through individualism and competition and hoarding that we thrive. We are at our best when we are communal.”“It's not about how do I make more money so that I can thrive, but how do I make less money so that I have time to invest in the relationships that will really help me thrive?”Running an organization on the gift economy“ I started a nonprofit. We barely did any fundraising. We barely worked with foundations and somehow managed to become sustainable. Partly because we're committed to simple living. But so many things happened that gave me a sense this could work.”

When the Seattle Seahawks signed former Rams great Cooper Kupp in free agency, the move garnered it's fair share of criticism. Kupp was too old, too broken down, and too similar in style to Jaxon Smith-Njigba for it to work in Seattle, especially in the aftermath of DK Metcalf being traded to Pittsburgh.Leave it to Max Toscano to fill that argument full of holes.Max once again brings his unique intellect and insight to the show to explain precisely why JSN and Kupp can not only co-exist, but thrive together in Seattle.Stick around for the entire interview, as Max also explains how Seattle's young TE group has so much upside, and if there's ANY chance Cincinnati pass-rusher Trey Hendrickson might also be in play for the Seahawks.

Truthbomb: A collection of people working in the same department, function, or even office are not necessarily a team. And if you want high performance, you need to know the difference.Today, Pam Fox Rollin shares the important difference between groups and teams - if you don't understand this, you may be consistently beating your head against a wall! - and the factors that help you turn your collection of people into a truly high-performing team. We talk about how empathy drives team performance and the transformation she has seen when leaders learn to bring empathy to their work. Pam introduces the concept of Conversations for Relationship and why understanding that those exist, even when you can't hear them, impacts performance. eWe discuss the intersection of teams and communities, and how to build a “team brand” that helps you succeed within your organization. Finally, Pam shares real-life examples from her clients on how to develop empathy and use it wisely while avoiding the pitfalls. To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:There are four essential conversations teams must have: Conversation for Possibility, Conversation for Decision, Conversation for Action, and Conversation for Relationship. If there is low trust, there will be slow change. If you want your organization to change faster, you must build that trust.Take a stand, put a stake in the ground, and give people accurate information about what you're about and what your purpose is. "They needed something more, and that something more is fundamentally two things: one, a shared promise, and two…a commitment to coordinate to fulfill that promise." — Pam Fox Rollin Episode References: Right to Be: https://righttobe.org/ The Empathy Edge podcast: Carrie Melissa Jones: Building Successful CommunitiesFrom Our Partner:SparkEffect partners with organizations to unlock the full potential of their greatest asset: their people.

Welcome back Thrivers! In today's episode, your host Brittany dives into innovative approaches to developing high-impact leaders amid accelerating change.Brittany highlights some concerning inefficacies of a global $166 billion corporate leadership development industry - that only 10% of CEOs believe current initiatives demonstrate clear business impact and attributes this to conventional one-size-fits-all programs lacking personalization and cultural relevance. So how do we rectify this? Brittany advocates for culturally tailored learning to engage diverse leaders based on identity, experience, and more, as well as collaborating cross-functionally when designing programs, even including business leaders in content delivery. She also stresses the merits of experiential learning for optimal retention, sharing her "15/15/15 model” - 15 minutes instruction, 15 minutes applied practice, 15 minutes Q&A. Lastly, she urges integrating often overlooked “power skills” like emotional intelligence and empathy into development. Overall, Brittany provides a compelling case for forward-thinking leadership development in ever-changing business environments. Her insights equip executives to build inclusive cultures and drive impact by better-supporting leaders at all levels.KEY POINTS:-Leadership development shapes competencies, crucial for organizational success-Lack of personalization and cultural relevance hinders effectiveness-Integrate experiential learning, and prioritize "power skills" like empathy-Move beyond one-size-fits-all in the era of global change, seize the opportunity-Acknowledge AI as transformative in learning and development-Invest in leaders with dynamic, personalized approaches for your growth and impactQUOTABLES:"So when we say leadership development at career thrivers, it is inclusive of what you're doing from a diversity equity and inclusion standpoint." -Brittany Cole"Truly understand the nuances of different cultures so that your content, your skill development is meeting the needs of those cultures." -Brittany Cole"If the people don't have an opportunity to experience that learning in real-time, then they're only retaining about 5 to 8% of what's being delivered." -Brittany Cole"So embrace tailoring, embrace having culturally relevant training, and remember your organization will continue to grow and be profitable and impactful at the level that you are making an investment in your leaders." -Brittany ColeThe Blueprint to Visibility & Influence Guide | Download your FREE The Blueprint to Visibility & Influence Guide.
