Why Play Belongs in Leadership

In this week's episode of Leadership is Feminine®, Kris speaks straight to the hearts of high-achieving women who are carrying so much—the businesses they run, the households they manage, the people they care for, and the decisions they make every hour of the day. Kris argues that successful women don't just deserve joy. They require it.

After years of hosting immersive client retreats, she's seen firsthand what happens when accomplished women are offered a space designed entirely for them: where they don't have to drive, plan, decide, or take care of anyone. They get to receive. And something powerful happens.

They come back to themselves.

These experiences aren't frivolous. They are healing. They restore the spirit of a woman who spends her life pouring into everyone else. Kris makes the case that joy is a strategic investment. And it is necessary if we want to lead sustainably.

Here's what we explore in this episode:

• The invisible weight successful women silently carry
• What shifts when women are cared for instead of caretaking
• How play creates emotional spaciousness and clarity
• Why joyful rest is a strategic requirement—not a luxury
• The cultural and personal permission women need to take real breaks

This is your invitation to recapture delight—to make room for play, presence, and wonder.
