Leadership Beyond the Title

TaSheena Braxton| Mom, Executive Leadership & Team Coach

Leadership Beyond the Title is hosted by TaSheena Braxton, Executive Leadership & Team Coach, mother of four, and a woman who learned how to lead long before she ever held a formal title. This podcast is for leaders who know they're capable of more — with or without the job title to prove it. Every week, we disrupt the outdated belief that leadership is tied to hierarchy, proximity to power, or navigating corporate politics. Leadership isn't given. Leadership is shown — through impact, visibility, strategic relationships, and the courage to show up as who you are. I created this podcast because I know what it feels like to be overlooked, underestimated, or told (implicitly or explicitly) that you aren't a leader until someone grants you permission. And I also know what it looks like to lead anyway — to influence without authority, to build trust across teams, to navigate power dynamics, and to grow a reputation that gets you opportunities you were never "supposed" to have. Inside this podcast, you'll learn how to: • Lead in any room — regardless of your title • Grow visibility without burning out • Build relationships that accelerate your career • Navigate identity, systems, and workplace politics with clarity • Position yourself as a leader people want to follow Our conversations will help you move from untapped, unseen, and under-recognized to someone who leads movements, shapes culture, and makes an undeniable impact — title or not. If you're ready to lead from who you are — not what your title says — you're in the right place.

    Stop Skipping Your Skip Levels: The Visibility Strategy That Gets You Promoted | Ep #60

    📜 Summary Somewhere along the way, many of us were taught to stay in our lane. Don't rock the boat. Be loyal. Let your manager handle the relationship with leadership. And whatever you do — don't go over your boss's head. And maybe that advice came from a good place — but it's keeping you invisible to the people who actually make decisions about your career. In this episode, I'm unpacking the belief that causes so many talented, accomplished women to avoid one of the most powerful career-building tools available to them: the skip level meeting. We explore: Why skipping your skip levels feels like loyalty — but is actually costing you The difference between going around your boss and building relationships across the organization The agent and the athlete analogy — and why even LeBron doesn't let his agent handle everything What happens when your boss is the only person telling your story in rooms you've never entered Why visibility isn't arrogance — it's agency A 6-step approach to walking into your next skip level prepared, confident, and strategic What to do after the meeting to keep the relationship warm and build on the foundation you created A skip level is not going around your boss. It's taking responsibility for making sure the right people know who you are — before opportunities are announced, before decisions are made, and before someone else's name comes up instead of yours. Your boss can open doors. But you have to walk through them. If you've ever avoided a meeting with senior leadership because it felt wrong, disloyal, or like it wasn't your place — this conversation is for you.   📥 Grab the free Storyteller Framework: LINK   📖 Chapters 00:00 The Belief That's Keeping You Invisible 05:30 Your Boss Is Not Your Only Advocate 13:00 What It's Costing You to Stay Invisible 16:30 How to Prepare for Your Skip Level 24:00 What Letting Go of This Belief Unlocks   🔗 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership & Career Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without becoming someone you don't recognize—this coaching is for you.

    The Best Storyteller Wins | Ep #59

    📜 Summary Somewhere along the way, many of us were taught that hard work speaks for itself. Keep your head down. Deliver results. Stay humble. Eventually, someone will notice. And maybe that advice came from a good place—but it's keeping you invisible. In this episode, I name a truth that too many accomplished women of color have learned the hard way: your work doesn't speak. You do. I break down the limiting beliefs that keep high-performing women silent about their contributions—and introduce the Storyteller framework, a repeatable system for turning your accomplishments into compelling narratives that actually land. We explore: Why "it's just my job" thinking erases your most significant contributions How confusing self-advocacy with arrogance keeps you stuck The myth of meritocracy—and why no one is tracking your wins the way you think What happens when you let someone else narrate your career (or worse, no one does) The courtroom analogy: why evidence without argument loses every time The Storyteller framework has five elements—Stakes, Intention, Cost, Impact, and Resonance—a structure that transforms how you communicate your value without feeling cringe or performative. This episode is an invitation to stop hoping someone notices and start showing them exactly what you bring. If you've ever delivered exceptional work and watched someone else get the credit—this conversation is for you.   📥 Download the Storyteller Framework: LINK   📖 Chapters 00:00 When Hard Work Doesn't Speak for Itself 02:00 The Beliefs Keeping You Invisible 04:00 Self-Promotion Isn't Arrogance—It's Advocacy  05:00 The Myth of Meritocracy  07:00 The Courtroom Analogy: Evidence Without Argument  10:00 What Happens When You Stay Silent  13:00 Storytelling Is a Skill You Can Learn 15:00 Where to Use Your Stories  21:00 Introducing the Storyteller Framework  33:00 Connection: The Thread That Runs Through It All  34:00 The Framework in Action: A Client Story  38:00 What This Framework Does for You  41:00 Walk Into Interviews with Receipts, Not Anxiety  43:00 Recap: Stakes, Intention, Cost, Impact & Resonance   🔗 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership & Career Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without becoming someone you don't recognize—this coaching is for you.

    The Future of Leadership Doesn't Require Self-Abandonment | Ep #58

    📜 Summary Somewhere along the way, many of us were taught that advancement requires becoming someone else. Speak up more. Be more visible. Get comfortable with self-promotion. Adapt to the culture. And maybe it worked—at least on paper. In this episode, I name a truth that doesn't get talked about enough: self-abandonment is often rewarded early in our careers—but it becomes unsustainable at higher levels of leadership. I break down how women of color, especially introverted women of color, are conditioned to perform a version of leadership that was never designed with us in mind—and why that performance comes at a steep cost: our energy, our health, our creativity, and eventually our careers. We explore: Why "executive presence" and similar feedback often masks a deeper systemic issue How code-switching, masking, and constant self-monitoring quietly drain your capacity Why performance may get you promoted—but stalls you at the next level The difference between burnout from work and burnout from inauthenticity How energy, presence, and conviction—not performance—create real influence I also reframe the Peter Principle through an identity lens: when you perform a version of leadership that isn't yours, you don't just rise to the level of incompetence—you rise to the level of inauthenticity. And performance doesn't scale. This episode is an invitation to stop treating self-abandonment as a strategy and start leading from a place of alignment, embodiment, and trust in who you already are. If you've ever felt exhausted not by the work itself—but by who you have to be to do the work—this conversation is for you. 📖 Chapters 00:00 The Cost of Becoming Someone You Don't Recognize 02:00 Why Corporate Standards Were Never Designed for You 05:00 Performance, Promotion & the Bigger Cage 06:00 The Peter Principle — Reframed Through Identity 09:00 Burnout Isn't About the Work, It's About the Performance 12:00 Why Energy Always Tells the Truth 15:00 Leadership Is Connection — And Performance Blocks It 16:00 What Happens When You Lead Anchored vs. Masked 18:00 Reclaiming Quiet Strength, Depth & Discernment 21:00 Where Are You Abandoning Yourself and Calling It Strategy? 23:00 Leading Beyond the Title — Without Self-Betrayal   🔗 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership & Career Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without becoming someone you don't recognize—this coaching is for you.

    You Can't Win With 11 Quarterbacks (What Football Taught Me About Teams) | Ep #57

    Welcome back to Leadership Beyond the Title Podcast! 📜 Summary If you've ever struggled to get your quieter team members to share their strengths — or felt frustrated when team discussions get dominated by the loudest voices — this episode is for you. In this episode, I share how I used a football analogy combined with Visual Explorer cards to unlock collective leadership in a recent team session. I break down why most teams misunderstand collective leadership (hint: it's not about everyone doing everything the same way), and why asking people to "name their strengths" directly often backfires — especially for introverts, women, and anyone who finds self-promotion uncomfortable. You'll learn the football principle: why you can't win with 11 quarterbacks, and why every position — from the offensive line to the running back to the coach — is essential to a winning team. I walk you through how I used visual thinking tools to help even the quietest people articulate their unique contributions without feeling like they were bragging. By the end of this episode, you'll have a framework for teaching your team what makes a good team, plus a practical tool to help everyone — especially the quiet ones — claim their position and feel valued. 📖 Chapters 00:00 Introduction: Why Quiet Team Members Struggle to Share Strengths 03:00 What Collective Leadership Actually Means 04:30 The Football Principle: Every Position Matters 08:00 Breaking Down the Positions: Quarterbacks, Offensive Line, Running Backs & More 13:00 Coaches, General Managers & The Full Team System 15:00 Collective Leadership: Everyone Doing Their Thing 17:00 Why Asking Directly About Strengths Backfires 21:00 Using Visual Explorer Cards to Unlock Strengths 25:00 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership Coaching 27:00 What Happened When the Team Used Visual Cards 30:00 The Four Elements of Collective Leadership 33:00 Combining Framework + Tool for Real Results 36:00 Reflection Questions for Your Team 38:00 Why Visual Tools Work (Even When You Think You Don't Need Them)   🔗 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership & Career Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without shape-shifting, overperforming, or silencing yourself — my 1:1 leadership coaching is designed for you. We'll get clear on the kind of leader you are (and want to be), create simple ways for you to be seen at work that don't require you to be loud or "on," and strengthen the relationships that actually influence decisions — so opportunities come to you instead of you waiting to be picked.   🔗 Apply for 1:1 coaching by booking a call here: BOOK A CALL HERE   Where to Find TaSheena Sign up for "A Seat At The Table," my Weekly Newsletter that empowers WOC leaders and their teams to build their own seats at the table.

    Stop Calling My Personality a "Superpower" | Ep #56

    🎙️ Welcome back to Leadership Beyond the Title Podcast! 📜 Summary If you've ever been told "introversion is your superpower" — but you still feel drained, overlooked, or like leadership requires more adaptation than it should — this episode is for you. In this reflective solo episode, I'm unpacking why praise alone doesn't create inclusion — and how calling introversion a "superpower" can quietly place the burden back on introverted leaders to survive systems that were never designed for them. This isn't a rejection of introversion. It's an invitation to look deeper. We'll explore the difference between symbolic validation and structural change, why so many workplaces confuse visibility with impact, and how leadership effectiveness has far more to do with design, judgment, and clarity than personality traits. Because when introversion is truly valued, coping strategies shouldn't be required just to function. You'll hear: ✨ why "introversion as a superpower" can become pressure instead of empowerment ✨ how praise without system change increases emotional and cognitive load ✨ the difference between validation and real inclusion ✨ why this tension isn't personal — it's a design bias ✨ how meetings became performance spaces instead of thinking spaces ✨ what it actually looks like to design environments for a range of leadership styles ✨ why design is leadership — not personality management This episode is a grounding reframe — especially if you're tired of being told to "speak up more," "move faster," or "just adapt." Because your leadership isn't the problem. The environment is outdated. And leadership maturity shows up in what we're willing to redesign.   📖 Chapters 00:00 When "Introversion Is a Superpower" Still Feels Exhausting Why praise doesn't always translate into support. 03:30 Why This Language Started — and Where It Breaks Down How affirmation emerged as resistance — and why it's not enough. 07:30 Validation vs. Change When celebration replaces structural courage. 10:00 When the Burden Shifts Back to the Individual How "use your superpower" becomes a coping mandate. 13:30 Symbolic Praise vs. Tangible Support Why being valued in words but not in design creates burnout. 16:30 It's Not a Personality Mismatch — It's a Design Bias How workplaces quietly reward speed, volume, and dominance. 20:00 How Meetings Became Performance Spaces Why visibility gets confused with leadership. 23:30 Reframing Leadership Effectiveness Judgment, clarity, and decision quality — not airtime. 26:30 What It Means to Design for Range Practical examples of environments that support different styles. 30:00 Design Is Leadership Why inclusion requires structural courage. 32:30 Who This Conversation Is Really For Introverted leaders — and the executives who shape the system. 35:00 Final Reflection What would change if leadership stopped confusing visibility with value?   If this episode resonated, don't forget to like, subscribe, and share it with a leader who's been praised — but not truly supported. Because you don't need to be louder to lead. And leadership doesn't live in personality traits — it lives in how work is designed. Because you don't need a title to lead.   🔗 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership & Career Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without shape-shifting, overperforming, or silencing yourself — my 1:1 leadership coaching is designed for you. We'll get clear on the kind of leader you are (and want to be), create simple ways for you to be seen at work that don't require you to be loud or "on," and strengthen the relationships that actually influence decisions — so opportunities come to you instead of you waiting to be picked.   🔗 Apply for 1:1 coaching by booking a call here: BOOK A CALL HERE   Where to Find TaSheena Sign up for "A Seat At The Table," my Weekly Newsletter that empowers WOC leaders and their teams to build their own seats at the table.

    Why You Don't Need to Fake It Till You Make It — Borrow Belief Instead | Ep #55

    🎙️ Welcome back to Leadership Beyond the Title Podcast! 📜 Summary If you've ever been told you're powerful, brilliant, poised, or a natural leader — but you don't always feel that way on the inside — this episode is for you. In this grounding solo episode, I'm sharing why so many Women of Color experience a gap between how others see us and what we've been conditioned to believe about ourselves — and why you do NOT need to "fake it till you make it" to close that gap. We'll explore the idea of Borrowed Belief — allowing the people who see you clearly (mentors, sponsors, leaders, friends, coaches) to hold the truth about your capability while your nervous system gently catches up. Because doubt isn't a flaw — it's a protection response that forms when you've spent years navigating comparison, bias, invisibility, and scrutiny in corporate systems that weren't built with you in mind. You'll hear: ✨ the real reason praise can feel uncomfortable in your body ✨ why "imposter syndrome" is often really imposter treatment ✨ the difference between Fake It Till You Make It vs Borrowed Belief ✨ how your nervous system protects you — even from opportunity ✨ healthy ways to receive affirmation & advocacy without shrinking ✨ who you should NOT borrow belief from — and how to choose safe people ✨ how to build self-trust gently — instead of forcing confidence This episode is a soft place to land — especially if you're tired of being told to "be more confident" or "just believe in yourself." Because your leadership isn't wishful thinking. Other people already see it. And while your nervous system learns that it's safe to be seen — you're allowed to borrow belief.   📖 Chapters 00:00 If People See Your Power Before You Do Why capable women still experience self-doubt — and why nothing is "wrong" with you. 04:00 Why I Don't Believe in "Imposter Syndrome" Understanding imposter treatment — and how systems shape self-doubt. 09:00 Your Brain Is Wired for Safety — Not Spotlight How your nervous system responds to visibility, risk, and opportunity. 12:30 What Borrowed Belief Really Means Letting trusted people reflect truth back to you — without pretending. 14:30 My Story: Becoming a Coach How someone else's belief opened a door I wouldn't have walked through alone. 19:30 Fake It Till You Make It vs Borrowed Belief The emotional, psychological, and spiritual difference between the two. 23:00 Reflection Questions to Gently Explore Who already sees your capability? And what truth are they reflecting? 26:00 How to Practice Borrowed Belief — Safely Simple relational practices that build grounded confidence over time. 27:30 Who Not to Borrow Belief From Protecting yourself from ego-driven validation or manipulation. 29:00 You Are Not Broken Confidence grows in healthy community — not isolation. 31:00 Final Reflections — Let Belief Hold You You don't have to rush. Your nervous system gets to catch up. If this episode supported you, don't forget to like, subscribe, and share it with another Woman of Color who deserves support on her leadership journey — without performance, pressure, or pretending. Because you don't need a title to lead. And you don't need to fake confidence to deserve opportunity. Because you don't need a title to lead. And you don't need to fake confidence to deserve opportunity.    🔗 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership & Career Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without shape-shifting, overperforming, or silencing yourself — my 1:1 leadership coaching is designed for you.

    How to Let Go of the Past Year and Start Fresh in 2026 | Ep #54

    🎙️ Welcome back to Leadership Beyond the Title Podcast! 📜 Summary If you've been saying "new year, new me"…but still feel like you're carrying the emotional, financial, and spiritual leftovers of 2025 into the new year, this episode is your invitation to finally put those bags down. In this reflective solo episode, I share how I've been navigating one of the hardest years of my life — grief, transition, layoffs, DEI rollbacks, political tension, burnout, and the quiet pressure to hold it all together. And I walk you through the four powerful practices I'm using to create a true completion ceremony for the year — so you aren't dragging the old season into the new one. We'll talk about why "moving on" doesn't work without reflection…how grief keeps us holding onto identities, jobs, people, and things that no longer fit…and how God invites us to release what we've outgrown so He can make room for what's next. You'll learn: ✨ the 3 S's reflection framework — Successes, Stuck Points, and Shifts ✨ how to interrogate negative thoughts with compassion instead of shame ✨ why grieving is a spiritual and emotional practice — not a setback ✨ how identity markers shape the way you see yourself — and your future ✨ and the simple 5 Wants & Desires exercise to align you with your "why" This episode is for anyone — especially Women of Color — who have been strong for too long, who are still holding emotional receipts from the past few years, and who are ready to close the chapter with intention, faith, and self-compassion. Because you deserve to walk into 2026 lighter, clearer, grounded, and complete   📖 Chapters 00:00 If You're Ready to Close the Books on 2025 Why so many of us carry emotional "baggage" into the new year. 06:30 When the World Feels Heavy DEI rollbacks, layoffs, political noise — and how it impacts our nervous systems. 10:30 Completion vs. Avoidance What it truly means to say, "I am complete." 14:30 Reflection: The 3 S's Framework Successes, where you were stuck, and the shifts you're being called into. 22:00 Interrogating Negative Thoughts with Compassion How to question shame-based beliefs instead of living inside them. 28:00 Grieving, Releasing & Letting Go of Old Identities Clothes, papers, people, jobs — and who we used to be. 36:30 Five Wants & Desires — and Knowing Your Why Why purpose matters more than money or achievement. 42:00 Identity Markers & Becoming Who You're Called to Be How you see yourself physically, spiritually, relationally, financially & beyond. 45:30 Thank You as a Faith Practice Journaling gratitude for what hasn't happened yet — and trusting God anyway. 50:00 Final Reflections — Walking Into 2026 Lighter Completion, not perfection. Release, not pressure. Faith, not fear. ⭐ If this episode supports you, don't forget to like, subscribe, and share it with someone who needs a gentle, faith-rooted reset heading into the new year.   🔗 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership & Career Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without shape-shifting, overperforming, or silencing yourself — my 1:1 leadership coaching is designed for you.

    Embracing the Cringe in Your Leadership — And Why It Changes Everything w/Cat Del Carmen | Ep #53

    🎙️ Welcome back to Leadership Beyond the Title Podcast! 📜 Summary If you've ever felt like you needed permission to show up fully as yourself — or like leadership required perfection, polish, and playing it safe — this episode will feel like a deep exhale. In this conversation with business coach Catalina Del Carmen, we explore what it really means to embrace the cringe in your leadership — the awkwardness, the vulnerability, the moments where you're unsure how you'll be received — and why those moments are often the gateway to authenticity, impact, and visibility. Cat shares how creating content became the first place she allowed herself to show up as a whole human, not a curated persona. We talk about the famous Cringe Challenge — why doing the uncomfortable thing on purpose grows confidence and presence — and how this mindset can be used not only in entrepreneurship but inside corporate systems and leadership roles. You'll also hear powerful stories from Cat's early leadership career at Nordstrom and Adobe — including: ✨ how leaders who trusted and believed in her shaped her leadership identity ✨ why leaning into your strengths (even if they don't feel "professional") changes everything ✨ how to lead people with different working styles — especially neurodivergent folks ✨ and why servant leadership and honesty build trust faster than perfection ever could This episode is an invitation to stop performing, stop waiting to be chosen, and instead lead from the truth of who you are — messy, brave, imperfect, and powerful.   📖 Chapters 00:00 The Cringe Challenge — What It Really Means Where the idea came from and why discomfort is part of growth — not a problem.   07:30 Marketing Rules vs. Giving Yourself Permission How overthinking, perfectionism, and "doing it right" stop us from being visible.   15:00 Belief, Sponsorship & Being Seen Before You're Ready How leaders who saw Cat's strengths helped shape her confidence and identity.   22:00 Authentic Leadership & Owning Your Strengths Why the qualities that come easiest to you are often your greatest assets.   30:00 ADHD, Motherhood & Doing Things Differently Building systems around who you are — not who the world expects you to be.   38:00 Leading People Where They Are Servant leadership, honest conversations, and meeting people with compassion.   50:00 Final Takeaway — Do It Your Way (Even If It's Different) Trusting your ideas, embracing the cringe, and giving yourself permission.   💼 Work With Me: 1:1 Leadership Coaching If you're a woman of color who wants to grow your career without shape-shifting, overperforming, or silencing yourself — my 1:1 leadership coaching is designed for you.
