    Ep. 102 | Civility isn’t Optional—It’s Your (Leadership) Edge

    In a recent client engagement, I worked with a mid-size team struggling with low morale and high turnover. Their solution? Culture trainings. Their real issue? Civility gaps. Once we reestablished norms around communication, accountability, and leadership tone—retention improved by 24% in less than 90 days. Not because they launched a new wellness initiative. Because they rebuilt relational trust. A Final ThoughtYour team doesn’t need more pizza parties. They need a leader bold enough to model truth and trust in action.And that begins with assessing how civility really shows up (or doesn’t) in your organization. --//-- Grace Over Grind™ Podcast, wasn’t birthed from branding.

    Ep. 101 | Sustainable Leadership: Prioritize Your Energy

    Time Is Measured. Energy Is Felt. One of the most transformative moments in my own leadership journey came when I realized that I was spending my best energy on tasks that didn’t move the mission forward. I was responding to every email, attending meetings I didn’t need to be in, and holding space for everyone—while leaving myself last. I had my time accounted for down to the hour. But by the end of the day, I was running on empty. That’s when I flipped the script: I stopped asking “How can I fit more in?” and started asking “What energizes me, and what depletes me?” And that question changed everything. I started placing the work in the correct categories. Listen now to learn more. --//-- Grace Over Grind™ Podcast, wasn’t birthed from branding. It was birthed from burnout.
