It’s practical and focused on helping leaders make meaning of their work, lives, and relationships while exploring the head, heart, and soul of leadership. Each podcast features a leadership tool or approach to apply immediately to your work and life, drawing from my experiences as an executive, process consultant, executive coach, business owner, and professor.
