    #208 What if Leading at Senior Level Didn't Have to Cost You Everything?

    Send us a text What if leadership didn’t have to cost you everything? So many women in leadership have been taught to rise the old way, by overworking, overdelivering, and overgiving. We’ve been conditioned to say “yes,” prove our worth, and constantly do more to be seen as capable. But that broken model leads to burnout, resentment, and the quiet belief that success has to come with sacrifice.  In this week’s episode of The 360 LeadHERship Podcast, I’m sharing a powerful message that every woman in leadership needs to hear - you can succeed without losing yourself in the process. Because success doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your health, happiness, or identity. If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s an easier, more fulfilling way to thrive as a senior woman leader this is the episode you’ve been waiting for. Tune in to Discover: How to recognise the hidden costs of “doing it all” and why hard work alone isn’t enoughThe mindset shifts that will help you stop people-pleasing and start leading authenticallyHow executive presence is less about perfection and more about self-trustHow the women in 3SIXTY Leaders Club are transforming their careers and enjoying life againGoal setting strategies to reclaim your time, confidence, and impact Recommended Next Steps If this framework was helpful, you can learn more tools in my free masterclass: 3 Secrets to Lead with Confidence & Get Recognised without Burning Out or Sacrificing Your Evenings. 👉 Click here for instant access [40 minute watch] Enjoyed the episode?

    #207 Are you Leading or Just Surviving? The Silent Trap Women at Senior Level Fall Into

    Send us a text Are you leading… or just surviving? On the outside, you might look like the picture of success. You’re hitting targets, managing teams, and praised for your work ethic. But inside? You may feel like you’re constantly in reactive mode, overthinking every decision, stretched too thin, and watching others with half your talent rise faster. Want more behind-the-scenes strategies and resources to help you thrive as a senior leader? Join my weekly newsletter and be the first to hear about my brand new (and free!) upcoming resource designed to help you step off the hamster wheel and lead with more ease and impact. Podcast Details: This week on The 360 LeadHERship Podcast, I’m diving into a question that every ambitious woman in leadership needs to ask herself: Am I truly leading, or am I stuck in survival mode? Because here’s the truth: the “success trap” is real. Many women in leadership unknowingly sacrifice their health, relationships, confidence, and even their sense of self in the pursuit of corporate achievement. But leadership doesn’t have to come at the cost of your well-being or your happiness. There is another way, a more strategic, intentional, and balanced way to lead. Tune in to Discover: 3 clear signs you’re leading from survival mode instead of true leadershipHow overthinking, people pleasing, and saying “yes” to everything are holding you backWhy boundaries don’t mean doing less - they mean delivering smarterHow work-life balance and mindset shifts can elevate both your career and wellbeingPractical strategies to reclaim your time, confidence, and energy while still excelling in your roleRecommended Next Steps 👉 Want more behind-the-scenes strategies and resources to help you thrive as a senior leader?

    #205 Executive Presence Part 3: Appearance or Authenticity, Which Actually Matters Most?

    Send us a text Here’s a truth that every ambitious woman in leadership needs to hear: all important decisions about you are made when you’re not in the room.  That’s why executive presence matters so much. It’s not just about working hard, hitting targets, or keeping your head down. It’s about inspiring confidence in others that you are the person for the job.
