#0140: So You Wanna Join the C Suite, Episode 2: Envy: Why the C-Suite Isn’t What You Think

Ambition can be a powerful force—but when myths and missteps fuel it, the climb to the top can feel more like a trap than a triumph. In this episode, we pull back the curtain on executive leadership and ask: What’s really behind the chase for the title?

- Why would anyone actively pursue C-Suite roles?

- What are the wrong reasons to chase the C-suite—and how can you spot them before they derail your path?
