Ep. 172: What Happened When I Sat Down with No Notes

This episode started with just a single phrase. No script, no outline, and no plan. I hit record and let the words flow (and sometimes not). What followed was a deeply honest reflection on strength, leadership, vulnerability, and what it really means to show up with intention and heart.

Together, we’ll explore how quiet qualities like empathy, emotional intelligence, and calm confidence can be powerful forces for change. Not just in how we lead others, but in how we show up in the world.

If you've ever felt like you had to be loud or forceful to make an impact, this episode might give you something new to think about.

In this episode, I talk about:

• Letting go of the idea that power has to be loud

• How vulnerability and honesty can strengthen your voice

• The kind of leadership that feels most aligned with who I am

• A reminder that your presence doesn’t need to be performative to be powerful
