Dominate Your Day
Where does transformation really start? I once had a dream where I was locked out of my own house, frantically trying every code I could think of until a voice said, “You already have the code. It’s L-O-V-E.” Most leaders believe transformation means doing more more strategy, more effort, more willpower. But true transformation starts with being, not doing. It’s not about performing who you think you should be it’s about remembering who you already are.

People-pleasing, fixing, and performing leadership left me exhausted and disconnected from who I really was. In this episode, you’ll hear how learning to focus on what I could actually control sparked an internal revolution, restored my marriage, reshaped my leadership, and led to the creation of the Authentic Imprint™ formula. I also share what’s ahead for the podcast as we enter our fifth year and why this next season will go deeper into real-life transformation stories.
Top 3 Takeaways: 1. Change starts with me. Lasting transformation doesn’t come from fixing others or circumstances it begins when I take responsibility for what’s happening inside me.
2. Emotional recognition is the multiplier. Strengths, values, and mission only work when paired with emotional recognition the ability to notice and name what’s happening inside you before it drives your behavior.
3. You don’t need to be more productive you need to be more you. Alignment, not achievement, is the key to sustainable leadership. When you lead from the inside out, transformation ripples through your life, your relationships, and your organization.
