Send a textA mid-level Director delivers an AI-generated presentation that looks flawless on the surface until the CEO starts asking real follow-up questions about implementation, trade-offs, and stakeholder impact. Suddenly, the limits of AI are exposed. It can draft the slides and script the talking points, but it cannot supply judgment, relationship capital, or strategic instinct. That gap is where promotions are decided and where replacements are too. What this episode is aboutAI is democratizing competence: anyone can use tools to generate strategic memos, slide decks, and data visualizations that look “senior.” Being technically excellent is no longer a differentiator; it is the new baseline. At the same time, major consulting firms are cutting thousands of roles as AI absorbs work that used to belong to junior and mid-level professionals, underscoring how vulnerable execution-only careers have become. If you are only using AI to get through your task list faster, you are still operating in execution mode. In this episode, Kele shows you how to use AI to clear the noise so you can double down on what AI cannot replicate: your Presence, your Perspective, and your Positioning, what she calls the Three Pillars of your AI-Proof Leadership Brand.What you'll learnWhy AI is raising the floor on competence and turning technical skills into the starting line, not the finish line, for your career.The real leadership moment behind the “perfect” AI-generated presentation and what actually separates who gets promoted from who gets replaced.What your leadership brand really is (not your job title or LinkedIn headline) and how it shows up when you are not in the room.The Three Pillars of Your AI-Proof Leadership Brand, Presence, Perspective, and Positioning, and why AI fundamentally cannot replicate them.Practical ways to strengthen your Presence and Perspective so you are known for how you think, decide, and show up in high-stakes moments.How to intentionally position yourself and your AI use so your value is visible, strategic, and clearly differentiated in an AI-driven workplace.Mentioned in this episodeIgnite Your Leadership Power Accelerator: Stop executing and start architecting your move to senior leadership.

This week's "At her Career Crossroads" insight comes from myself, Dr. Robin. "So reinvention after success isn't about becoming someone new. It's about allowing who you actually are to emerge, to rise. And that takes a different kind of courage. Not the loud courage of ambition, but the quiet courage of alignment." If you've built the career, earned the respect, and created stability — but something inside of you is shifting — this episode is for you. In this solo conversation, I'm talking about the kind of reinvention high-achieving women rarely admit out loud. The kind that happens after success. The kind that feels both terrifying and true. Here are 3 reasons why you should listen to this episode: You'll understand why reinvention after success feels so unsettling — and why that tension between stability and alignment is actually a sign of growth, not failure. You'll hear why grieving an old identity is normal, even when everyone else still applauds the life you've built. You'll begin to see that you're not starting over — you're starting deeper, wiser, and more aligned with who you are now. I'm Dr. Robin — professor, speaker, author, coach, and creator of the PurposeMAKER™ philosophy, framework, and platform, supporting high-achieving women in leadership to close the gap between success and fulfillment.

Perhaps we need to stop celebrating resilience. Because we may actually be celebrating toxic resilience. Hear me out. In the corporate world, telling a woman she is resilient is often just a polite way of saying, “We are going to give you an impossible workload, broken systems, and no support… and we expect you to smile through it.”  In fact, if you're complimenting my resilience, I may question if you were complicit in building and upholding the systems that made my resilience mandatory when yours was not.  Somewhere along the way, resilience became high praise for women in leadership. But too often it's code for “Figure it out, we're not going to fix this.” Women are expected to absorb dysfunction, manage emotional labor, navigate bias, and hold everything together without complaint. When resilience becomes a requirement instead of a choice, it stops being empowering and starts being extractive. The truth is, many women develop extraordinary resilience not because they lack capability, but because they are operating inside systems that demand more from them than from their male counterparts. They are expected to be competent but warm, assertive but not threatening, and ambitious but endlessly accommodating. So they adapt. They endure. They carry. And then they're praised for how well they survive conditions that were never equitable to begin with. But endurance is not the same as leadership strength.  Endurance drains creativity, dulls voice, and quietly normalizes what should actually be challenged. Resilience is an important skill, but it should not be constantly taxed. Real leadership isn't about how much you can tolerate - it's about what you're willing to transform. Instead of asking women to be more resilient, we should be asking why the system requires so much resilience in the first place. Sustainable leadership includes boundaries, advocacy, and the courage to disrupt what isn't working. Sometimes the most powerful move a woman can make isn't proving she can handle it. It's refusing to carry what was never hers to hold.

Not because you're fragile - but because your nervous system interprets social evaluation as threat.In this episode, with Dr Amen Kaur we unpack:Why one public mistake can trigger shame, overthinking, and loss of confidenceThe neuroscience of social-evaluative threat (prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and status perception)Why high-achievers are more vulnerable to spiraling after mistakesThe hidden link between competence, identity, and fear of judgmentWhy trying to “think your way out” often makes it worseHow regulation - not self-criticism - restores clarity and decisive actionYou'll learn why your brain reacts so strongly to perceived status loss, why reassurance rarely fixes it, and how internal regulation is the foundation for confident leadership.This episode is for high-performers, founders, leaders, and capable women who are tired of losing momentum after one mistake and are ready to move forward without outsourcing their confidence.If this resonates, and you're looking for a space to stabilise this process long-term, there are deeper ways to work together.

Does the Bible truly restrict women in leadership? In this thought-provoking Voxology Podcast episode, Mike Geary, Susie Lind, and Preston Sprinkle wrestle with this deeply significant theological question. Drawing from Preston's upcoming book, *From Genesis to Junia: What the Bible Really Says About Women in Leadership*, they explore the historical, cultural, and biblical contexts that shape complementarian and egalitarian debates. Are women called to lead, preach, and teach in the church? What role does cultural context play in interpreting scripture? With a blend of personal stories, rigorous scholarship, and honest dialogue, the hosts unpack passages like 1 Timothy 2 and Ephesians 5, illuminating how interpretations of authority, headship, and agency have shaped the Church's approach to women in ministry. Susie shares her lived experience as a pastor navigating these challenges, while Preston dives into the exegetical work that informed his book. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about how faith intersects with justice, theology, and cultural issues. Join the conversation as the hosts emphasize Jesus' inclusive teachings and challenge the commodification of women within religious structures.

For over 3 1/2 years, I researched what the Bible says about women in church leadership. I didn't have a conclusion when I started out. I just wanted to understand what the Bible says about the topic and sort through all the scholarly debates on all sides. I write about all of this in my new book From Genesis to Junia: An Honest Search for What the Bible Really Says about Women in Leadership. And I sum up my book in this epiosde.

What if the women of the early church weren't silent observers but powerful leaders, patrons, and apostles whose stories have been hidden for 2,000 years? In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Lynn Cohick, Distinguished Professor of New Testament at Houston Christian University and author of "Women in the World of the Earliest Christians," reveals how archaeological evidence, ancient inscriptions, and business documents completely transform our understanding of women's roles in early Christianity. From Lydia's influential house church to Phoebe's role as Paul's patron, from Mary Magdalene's true identity as a businesswoman to Junia's recognition as an apostle, Dr. Cohick exposes how prescriptive ideals from ancient philosophers masked the descriptive reality of women's actual lives and leadership.Dr. Cohick's decades of research illuminate how women navigated complex social structures through informal power networks, benefaction systems, and household authority. She explains how the house church model created unexpected leadership opportunities, how women maintained financial independence through dowries and personal property, and why understanding the actual social context of the first century radically changes how we interpret Paul's controversial passages about women. This conversation reveals how recovering these hidden stories isn't just about correcting history - it's about unleashing gospel transformation in our churches today.In this episode you will learn:How women served as patrons and benefactors who financially supported Paul's ministry and the early churchWhy Mary Magdalene was likely a successful businesswoman, not a prostitute, and how this misidentification happenedHow the house church model gave women authority and leadership roles we often overlookWhat archaeological evidence like tombstones and inscriptions reveal about women serving as deacons and synagogue leadersHow understanding patronage and reciprocity systems explains Phoebe's powerful role as Paul's prostatisWhy Paul's "women be silent" passages make sense when understood in their specific chaotic contextsHow Jewish women and God-fearers navigated between synagogue and church in joining the Jesus movementWhat Junia's story tells us about women being recognized as apostles in the early churchHow women's financial independence through dowries and property ownership gave them unexpected agencyWhy recognizing women's informal influence patterns transforms how we read the New Testament todayConnect with Dr. Lynn Cohick:Center for Women in Leadership: leadershipwithoutapology.orgHouston Christian University: hc.eduBook: "Women in the World of the Earliest Christians: Illuminating Ancient Ways of Life" Stay Connected with Johnny Ova & The Dig In Podcast:Subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyovaFollow Johnny: https://linktr.ee/johnnyovaGet Johnny's Book "The Revelation Reset": https://a.co/d/hiUkW8H

Lucinda is in discussion with Roxanne Hobbs, founder of the Hobbs Consultancy, about the importance of leading with heart in the workplace.  They look at how empathetic leadership can foster inclusive and high-performing cultures, and Roxanne shares her journey from the advertising industry to advocating for women in leadership, highlighting the significance of balancing empathy with accountability.  They explore the complexities of modern leadership, emphasising the need for leaders to embrace both emotional intelligence and performance-driven strategies. KEY TAKEAWAYS And empathy-led approach fosters a more inclusive and high-performing workplace culture. The model consists of three pillars: Connection (empathy and accountability), Authenticity (vulnerability and boundaries), and Consciousness (self-awareness and decisiveness). Leaders should strive to balance these elements to enhance their effectiveness. Leaders need to engage in personal work to overcome past experiences and fears that may hinder their ability to lead with heart A holistic approach helps identify underlying cultural issues and promotes sustainable performance. BEST MOMENTS "I want people to lead with heart, but I can't possibly say that out loud in the workplace. And he said, why not?" "If you're using fear to push people harder, there's only so far you can go with that before people will completely disengage." "The strength lies in the “and”. It's about being empathetic first and holding you accountable." "It's not something extra, it's not something that costs money, but it's how can people really just consider it."

"I've always focused on what I've been called to do and how I do that in partnership with others." Aleem Maqbool speaks to Dame Sarah Mulally, shortly before being confirmed as Archbishop of Canterbury. She's the first woman ever to lead the Church of England. It's a tough time for the Church and its leader who has to hold together people with a broad range of opinions across the Anglican Communion, one of the largest Christian communities in the world. Dame Sarah's election has upset some traditionalists who have threatened to leave the church because they are against the role of women in leadership. And, with her predecessor leaving because of his failings over abuse in the church, her stance on safeguarding, along with reparative justice and the blessings in church of same sex couples, are all in the spotlight. A former nurse, Dame Sarah rose to become England's chief nursing officer before being ordained. She says that there are strong links between nursing and being a priest - not always finding a cure, she says, but trying to heal.

Should women demand employers to pay MORE to cover their beauty costs? Women are paying out of pocket to be seen as credible, competent, and professional at work. Hair. Skin. Clothes. Time. Money. Face lifts. All of it. Not to mention the societal expectation that women should remain youthful, polished, and "camera-ready" especially when in a visible position whether it's in leadership, on stage, or otherwise. Spicy, right?In this episode, I sit down with Eleanor Beaton, powerhouse CEO and founder of Safi Media, to talk about why these costs are not vapid vanity, but part of the infrastructure of expectation and what is required to stay relevant, and why pretending otherwise keeps women underpaid and exhausted.Listen, I pushed back HARD on how outrageous this idea is - but also, WHAT IF it could be a way forward for us as women? We chat about the economics of beauty standards, ageism in the workplace, and why professional women are stuck absorbing costs, financial and emotional, just to appear relevant and polished.Eleanor peels back the curtain on why grooming, wardrobe upgrades, and even the ruthless battle against gray hair aren't just personal choices, they're part of a larger social infrastructure expected from women in high-visibility roles. We get real about the financial toll (think: $20,000+ a year!) and the invisible expectations that men just don't face. If you're an entrepreneur, founder, or ambitious woman in a corporate setting, you'll learn why it's time to stop treating these “upkeep” expenses as shameful and start seeing them as legitimate business investments.We also talk about negotiating for the true cost of visibility, dismantling patriarchal narratives, finding the right communities for support and strategic advice, and why transparency and discernment are superpowers for the next generation of female leaders. This episode isn't just a conversation, it's an invitation to step up, get strategic, and redefine what it means to show up powerfully in a culture that's overdue for a change.We talk about:The hidden costs of female professional visibilitySocietal beauty standards and agingThe gender wage gap and structural imbalancesNegotiating compensation as infrastructureEmotional impact of relevance and confidenceThe power of networks and access to informationDiscernment in choosing professional communitiesTimestamps:00:00 Choosing Gray: A Personal Choice03:11 Blind Spots and Relevance08:16 Beauty Expenses and Tax Challenges10:32 Accounting for Appearance Costs13:03 Gender Stereotypes and Ageism Debate19:07 Negotiating Workplace Costs20:47 Negotiation Tips for Employment Logistics26:24 Confident Women in Daily Life29:36 Empowering Women Entrepreneurs33:29 Structuring Success for Entrepreneurs35:18 Discernment and Evolving StandardsPrefer watching on YouTube? https://youtu.be/crrVBwgUfSo—---------------------------------------------------------To Connect With Eleanor:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eleanorbeaton/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/eleanorbeaton/Website: https://eleanorbeaton.com/To Connect With Me:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/allison__hareLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonhare/Website: https://allisonhare.comBook a free clarity call with Allison: https://allisonhare.com/freecall Be sure to rate, review, and follow this podcast on your player and also, connect with me IRL for more goodness and life-changing stuff.Schedule a FREE podcast clarity call with me - Your future audience is out there.

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn honor of International Women's Day 2026, I'm sharing a series of research backed and proven processes that truly moves the needle for women in leadership and the organizations that rely on them.In the coming weeks, we'll focus on promotion velocity, retention protection, deepening the leadership bench, and avoiding lost productivity and lost revenue during disruptive times.Given these proven tools, repeatable processes, and pressure proofed frameworks, companies can gain measurable progress, especially when the stakes are high. Today's focus is on two underestimated levers with outsized impact: emotional resilience strategic sponsorshipAs a two-time best selling author, speaker, and certified high performance executive coach, I help women leaders and rising leaders build Olympic level confidence and FBI grade strategic influence that will help them successfully deepen and manage key relationships (internally and externally) as well remain highly performing during disruptive or during times of change.First, let's talk about the many times, invisible roadblocks.Emotional tax is alive and well. The research tells us that it gets more expensive at higher levels AND for women who are further marginalized within our gender.That matters because as stakes rise, the cost of carrying too much without the right tools and strategic sponsorship rises too. If organizations want to retain executive and high potential women, accelerate promotion velocity, and deepen their leadership bench, emotional resilience cannot be left to chance. Neither can strategic sponsorships.What if female leaders have both?Three things.Productivity holds under pressure ... and profitability improvesDuring disruption, leaders who can anchor down and keep moving protect performance. When women leaders have the tools to stay grounded, organizations avoid costly drops in execution, momentum, and outcomes. This is not just leadership development. It's profitable.Leaders stop getting pulled into ego driven dynamicsEgo and narcissistic behaviors exist in many workplaces, internally and externally. Without tools, these dynamics drain bandwidth, derail confidence, and create unnecessary conflict. With the right tools and partnerships, women learn to distance themselves from those behaviors, maneuver around them, and in some cases, get those personalities on their side to support outcomes. That is emotionally protective and tactically smart.Trust and loyalty deepen ... and relationships weather the stormAI matters. And if we hit disruption, what carries organizations through is not technology alone. It's trust, loyalty, and relationships. Leaders who deepen trust and build stronger relationships create stability during instability. That is how companies stay productive and profitable when things get noisy.What can organizations give?First, give proven strategies to sharpen Clarity from the third person.If you've been in my community for a bit, you've heard me say.... Read more at: https://www.sherylkline.com/blog/promotion-velocity-and-retention-protection-via-emotional-resilience-and-strategic-partnershipsIf you would like to learn more about the Fearless Female Leadership enterprise digital framework, please click below.

This week's "At her Career Crossroads" insight comes from myself, Dr. Robin. I say — "You may be like so many high achieving women who are accomplished that you might be living in an outdated version of who you are. Versions that were built from who you were, who you used to be, who you have been, and you haven't updated this sense of who you are." If you've been successful, accomplished, and respected — but lately you feel restless, misaligned, or quietly questioning what's next — this episode is for you. In this solo conversation, I talk about why purpose doesn't disappear, why it often feels confusing at this stage of your career, and how to recognize when your purpose is asking to evolve. Here are 3 reasons why you should listen to this episode: You'll understand why feeling unfulfilled doesn't mean something is wrong — it often means you've outgrown a former version of yourself. You'll learn how "shoulds," expectations, and identity armor quietly block clarity when you're at a career crossroads. You'll walk away with four simple questions that help you reconnect with what feels aligned now — not who you used to be. I'm Dr. Robin — professor, speaker, author, coach, and creator of the PurposeMAKER™ philosophy, framework, and platform, supporting high-achieving women in leadership to close the gap between success and fulfillment.

If women don't experiment with AI now, we risk hard-coding today's leadership gaps into tomorrow's technology. In this episode I'm joined by Kendra MacDonald, CEO of Canada's Ocean Supercluster, to explore the intersection of women in leadership, AI readiness, representation, and emerging technology. This conversation goes beyond theory. It tackles the real risks and opportunities facing women leaders as AI, climate tech, and other emerging technologies reshape how leadership works — and who gets to shape the future. In this episode, we discuss: ◾ Why representation in leadership matters more than ever in emerging tech ◾ How AI adoption in the workplace can either reduce or reinforce gender bias ◾ Why women's hesitation to experiment with AI is a leadership issue — not a technical one ◾ What it takes to lead confidently in male-dominated industries like tech and ocean  innovation ◾ How leadership pipelines for women are shaped early — at work, at home, and through education ◾ The role of experimentation, confidence, and visibility in closing the leadership gap Kendra shares her own journey — from stepping away from STEM early in life to leading large-scale innovation and commercialisation — and offers practical insight into how women leaders can engage with AI and emerging tech without needing to be technical experts. If you care about: ✔ women in tech leadership ✔ AI readiness for leaders ✔ gender diversity in leadership ✔ bias in AI algorithms ✔ emerging and sustainable technology this episode is for you.

As this show predicted at the end of 2025, Jeffrey Epstein has become the Disorderer-in-Chief of 2026 – with Keir Starmer's credibility and ability to govern the latest victims of the document release. So how could there possibly be any Order emerging from this Disorder? It is only possible if McSweeney is ejected from Number 10. That is the only answer and the longer Starmer keeps him on, the weaker he will become relative to the Labour backbench. This week, Jason and Jane look at the ongoing fallout from the Epstein files on British high politics and why we need more transparent and more courageous leaders. Plus: the duo investigate the rise of women in leadership roles within the UN, examine upcoming US negotiations on both Russia/Ukraine and Iran/Nuclear, present Jason's observations about the depoliticisation of Trump's America, and answer questions from members of our Mega Orderers Club. Finally, as they Order the Disorder, they imagine a world with new institutions that could actually track what diplomats (current and former) do with state secrets and their privileged access to power.

What happens when a high-performing woman finally decides to build what she actually needs? In this episode, I sit down with Meg Gold, Co-Founder and CEO of BONDE, a private, vetted community for women decision-makers to talk about the parts of leadership we don't talk about enough: vulnerability, identity shifts, and the quiet courage it takes to bet on yourself. Meg shares the deeply personal story behind BONDE's founding, from navigating IVF to leaving corporate leadership and the unexpected ways women at the top still struggle to find real connection. We explore what women in leadership are truly missing (spoiler: it's not more mentorship), and how BONDE is reimagining community for women who don't fit into traditional boxes. If you've ever looked around a boardroom or business community and thought, "This wasn't built for me," - this conversation will feel like a homecoming. YOU'LL HEAR The moment Meg knew she was building someone else's dream and why she walked away How IVF reshaped her relationship with leadership, timing, and self-trust The unexpected way BONDE was born (hint: it involves an ugly sweater party) Why high-performing women still feel isolated, even with mentors and success The core need Meg sees in women leaders today (and how BONDE is answering it) How vulnerability became one of her strongest leadership tools Her perspective on protecting energy as a founder, mother, and human Why more women are betting on their own intellectual property A simple ritual she uses to stay grounded, creative, and clear YOUR RESOURCES → BONDE: www.joinbonde.com → Meg Gold: www.linkedin.com/in/meggold

In this episode of Even Better, host Sinikka Waugh is joined by Urmi Hossain for a powerful conversation on mentorship for women, how to find the support you need and how to become that support for someone else. Urmi shares why mentorship begins with self‑awareness, clarity, and understanding your goals, and why the best mentor for you doesn't always look like you or come from your industry. Together, they explore mentorship as a two‑way relationship, the importance of showing initiative, and the surprising value women often underestimate in themselves. Urmi also introduces the idea of building a personal "board of mentors" to guide different parts of your life and career. With insights on confidence, community, and empowering other women, this episode offers practical guidance for anyone seeking to grow, give back, and be even better. -- Urmi Hossain is a woman who wears many hats. She is a self-published author, speaker, blogger, podcast host, polyglot, mentor, and holder of both the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) and CAIA (Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst) designations.

This episode is the second in a special FEI Podcast series spotlighting past speakers from Financial Executives International's ICONS: Leaders in Finance event – designed to build momentum toward ICONS 2026. Heather Cole, Executive Coach and Business Analytics Advisor at Lodestar Solutions, Inc., interviews Patti Humble, former Chief Accounting Officer at UPS, Institute of Management Accountants board member, and Golden Seeds investor. Patti reframes careers as “jungle gyms, not ladders,” sharing the pivotal moment when she walked into her leader's office and asked for a promotion—only to learn she wasn't even being considered. That courageous ask set off a chain reaction that ultimately led her to the C-suite. Together, Heather and Patti explore: Why “don't ask, don't get” is a leadership strategy, not a slogan How finance leaders earn influence by shifting from black-and-white answers to business-shaping questions What real transformation leadership requires: hearts, minds, and momentum—not just project plans The power of building an external network to accelerate decisions and reduce friction Patti's next chapter as a board-ready leader and angel investor supporting women-led startups through Golden Seeds If you've ever assumed that hard work alone would get you noticed, this conversation offers a better playbook—because excellence is impressive, but advocacy is what changes your zip code.

Instead of pushing through, she chose a braver path: slowing down, reconnecting with creativity, and redefining leadership from the inside out.Together, Julie and Jan explore:Why burnout is not a badge of honor for high-achieving womenHow creativity and play are essential tools for regulation and healingThe hidden leadership patterns that keep women stuck and exhaustedWhy vulnerability is not weakness, but a powerful leadership skillWhat it means to live and lead fiercely in midlife and beyondJan also shares the story behind her mother's parting message, “Live a Fierce Life,” and how it continues to shape her work today.Free Gift: Jan is offering listeners her Fierce Weekly Reset, a simple and powerful guide to reset your energy, priorities, and mindset each week.

Send us a textOn the latest episode of the Stories to Create podcast, Cornell Bunting sits down with Jacquelyn Mosier—a builder, problem-solver, and someone who's learned to trust her gut, especially when it keeps tapping her on the shoulder about the same issue.Jacquelyn talks about how ForgeOps didn't start as a company—it started as a feeling. Over and over, she watched smart, capable teams struggle. Not because they weren't good at what they did, but because their systems weren't talking to each other. Information got stuck. Hand-offs fell apart. And things quietly went wrong long before anyone noticed the job was off track.She could've ignored that feeling. A lot of people do. But she didn't. She leaned into it—and trusted the right people to help her build something better.That leap led to ForgeOps, where she's now Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer. ForgeOps is creating a job coordination operating system that lives where construction meets operations. Jacquelyn's role covers revenue, partnerships, positioning, and investor relationships—but for her, it's about more than numbers. It's about protecting the vision and making sure what they build actually works in the real world.She also shares about Jack-IT Consulting, another company she founded to help businesses cut through the tech noise, choose the right tools, and actually use them. No shelfware. No overcomplicated systems. Just tech that does what it's supposed to do.What really drives her?Seeing patterns others missBuilding with intentionChoosing people over egoTurning intuition into real, working systemsJacquelyn believes the best companies are built when leaders really listen—to the data, to the people in the field, and to themselves.In this episode, she also opens up about growing up in a small town called Shelbyville, Illinois, navigating challenges within her family, and eventually moving to Florida to escape the cold and start fresh.If you're building something meaningful, figuring things out as you grow, or wrestling with problems that don't have easy answers—this conversation is for you.

This conversation brings into focus the dynamic A Suite program that Justina has created through her business, Valkyrie Solutions, designed specifically to empower women in leadership roles. Throughout the episode, a slew of insights unfold as Chris and Justina tackle the enduring challenges and hidden opportunities within male-dominated industries.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in leadership development, gender dynamics in the corporate world, and practical guidance on fostering inclusive workplaces.

Importance of Self-Trust: Building self-trust is crucial for women to assert themselves and excel in their professional environments. Dismantling Competition: Encouraging women to view each other as teammates rather than competitors to enhance innovation and success. Unlearning Toxic Conditioning: Addressing and overcoming toxic workplace environments that condition negative views towards leadership and gender. Research-Backed Strategies: The A Suite offers rooted strategies and psychological insights to empower women in leadership with evidence-based practices. Notable Quotes: “The greatest transformation is that women trust themselves the first time around.” “When there is no diversity at the top, we see the same ideas regurgitated and recycled.” “In the absence of self-doubt, we’re really able to thrive in other aspects of our life.” “I never should have had to doubt myself in the first place.” “We all rise together when we teach and empower those around us.”

From Olympic dreams to the frontlines of politics and climate action, Run Like A Girl charts McKenna's personal and political journey – from leading Canada's climate plan to withstanding sexist attacks as “Climate Barbie.” Through a unique scrapbook-style format, McKenna blends candid personal stories, political insights, and reflections on motherhood, ambition, and activism.

For readers of Becoming by Michelle Obama and No Logo by Naomi Klein, Run Like A Girl is a timely and deeply personal call to action – about finding your own path, breaking the rules, fighting for the future – on your own terms. Catherine McKenna is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Climate and Nature Solutions. She is Canada's former minister of environment and climate change (2015-19) as well as minister of infrastructure (2019-21).

Dr. Lynn H. Cohick is a for-real Bible scholar – which is the way you say that when you're not a for-real Bible scholar. Dr. Cohick is Professor of New Testament and also Director of Houston Theological Seminary at Houston Christian University.She served as President of the Institute of Biblical Research, as a senior translator on the New Living Bible Translation team. She serves on the Board of Trustees at Biola University and as the founder and President of Center for Women in Leadership. She has a great podcast – The Alabaster Jar -- and she's just a delightful human being. It is a joy today to talk with her about women in the Bible and in the 21st century, and about a passage in Ephesians that I think you'll find illuminating.

In the opening episode of Season 7 of Embracing Enough, host Dina Scippa pulls back the curtain on what women in leadership are actually carrying - and why so many are exhausted despite doing everything “right.”This episode isn't about fixing confidence or pushing resilience harder. It's about naming the deeper, systemic patterns that make leadership feel heavy, isolating, and emotionally taxing for women - especially those who are competent, committed, and conscientious.Dina reflects on the evolution of the podcast and introduces a season rooted in honesty over polish, truth over platitudes. She speaks directly to the quiet exhaustion women leaders feel but rarely say out loud - the fear of sounding ungrateful, weak, or incapable if they admit how hard it really is.This season moves the conversation away from individual shortcomings and toward the unspoken realities of leadership culture: the emotional labor, the silence, the pressure to perform composure while absorbing the weight of expectations that were never part of the job description.Embracing Enough becomes what it's always meant to be - the group chat, the hallway conversation, the truth-telling space where women don't have to pretend anymore.Key TakeawaysLeadership exhaustion is widespread among women—and it's not a personal failureThe fatigue many women feel is rooted in systemic expectations, not workload aloneWomen leaders often feel stuck despite being capable, successful, and qualifiedThere is a silence problem around naming the emotional cost of leadershipThis season prioritizes honest, unpolished conversations over performative confidenceThe focus is shifting from “fixing women” to examining leadership systems

This episode is about a feeling I do not hear discussed very often, especially among women in leadership: having a career that looks successful on paper, but still not feeling settled, finished, or like you have “arrived.”I am not sharing this as a complaint or a dramatic confession. It is an honest observation about how my career has actually unfolded. Over time, I have gained experience, responsibility, and perspective, but the moment I assumed would come—the one where everything feels certain and secure; never really did. What showed up instead was continued curiosity, change, and growth.In this episode, I reflect on how that pattern formed and what it has taught me about leadership, ambition, and stability, including:How starting my career during the dot-com boom and bust in San Francisco taught me to operate in ambiguity long before I realized itThe difference between ambition and restlessness, and why nonlinear growth is often misunderstood; especially for womenWhy choosing fit over optics can be one of the most confident leadership decisions you makeHow repeated market disruptions reshaped my understanding of stability, loyalty, and what leadership actually requiresIf you thought you would feel more certain by now, or more finished, this episode is for you. You are not behind, and you are not failing to figure something out that everyone else has mastered. Some careers are not designed to arrive at a final destination.They are meant to unfold; through recalibration, second acts, and choices that prioritize alignment over appearance. That belief sits at the heart of Clover, and it is why this show exists.
