    Find Fulfillment Now

    Ever feel like a career is stuck, even though on paper everything looks fine? This conversation with Tonya Drummonds explores a pattern many leaders experience. The assumption that fulfillment requires a new role, a new company, or a major pivot. Sometimes that is true. Often it is not. More often, the work starts with perspective. Clarifying values. Naming strengths. Being honest about what is draining energy and what is sustaining it. When those pieces come into focus, decisions get easier. Staying becomes a choice. Growth becomes intentional. Pivoting becomes thoughtful rather than reactive. If things have been feeling restless or misaligned, this episode creates space to pause and reflect.

    The New Rules of Leadership

    New managers shape performance, retention, and team culture faster than most organizations expect. Yet many are promoted without any real onboarding into people leadership. This episode looks at the practices that make the biggest difference early on. Feedback, one on one meetings, and coaching. The conversation focuses on how these practices reduce avoidable people issues and support new managers before problems show up. #leadership #confidence #leadershiptips
