Season 9 Episode 9: Self-Knowledge and Setting Yourself Up For Success
New Wave Leadership Podcast
This week, I want to spend some time discussing a concept that sounds simple on the surface, but is actually pretty complex: setting yourself up for success. I'm specifically going to address this from a leadership perspective, because that comes with its own unique challenges. Setting yourself up for success can be tough to sequence when: You are holding other people accountable You're responsible for team outcomes, metrics, and deliverables You have to consider the bigger picture of an organization — or, for my entrepreneurs out there, you are the one who holds the vision of your business...

Season 9 Episode 7: The Beautiful Opportunities in Catalytic Events
New Wave Leadership Podcast
I have always loved the word "catalyst." To me, it refers to events or situations — like a move to a new city, a shift in physical or mental health, or changes at our jobs, for example — that can stir stuff up. Catalytic events often feel disruptive or confusing, and we might have trouble adjusting to the changes that come in their wake. But these events are also a huge opportunity to: Re-evaluate self love Think about self care Take our power back Renegotiate standards and boundaries Strengthen and expand our tools Some of us might instinctively resist change, and I get it! But if...

Season 9 Episode 5: The Importance of Allowing When You're Moving Through Grief
New Wave Leadership Podcast
Let me say this right off the bat: there is no correct, perfect way to move through grief. It can be difficult to even talk about grief, because it's such a big, layered conversation with SO much nuance. How we grieve, on an individual level, involves who we are, where we come from, our beliefs, our culture, our religion, and so much more. Grief can be scary and make us self-isolate. It's also a non-linear process that can be, honestly, inconvenient as hell! But it can also be a catalyst for massive change and transformation. So with all that in mind, this week I want to talk about how...

Season 9 Episode 4: Understanding Your Intuition and Coming Into Alignment with Lucia Doynel
New Wave Leadership Podcast
No matter what industry you're in, I'm sure you've seen the nearly endless amount of advice for taking the best selfies and making the highest performing reels (or Tiktoks, for that matter). But none of those tips are going to help if you feel awful whenever you're in front of the camera. That's where my guest this week, Lucia Doynel, comes in! Lucia helps coaches feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera using Spiritual Psychology tools. When it comes to visibility and intuition, this is a woman who clearly walks her talk. Our conversation went in a few directions I didn't expect,...

New Wave Leadership Podcast
At some point, every one of us learns firsthand that sometimes, things just don't work out the way we wanted them to. But once the dust settles, what comes next? Well, as long time listeners of the podcast already know, for me, last year was one of those years where things just didn't go as planned. So this week, I want talk about two ideas that I've used at different points in my life: the do-over, and the free pass.

Season 9 Episode 1: What You Can Look Forward to This Season!
New Wave Leadership Podcast
Welcome to 2023 and season NINE of the New Wave Leadership podcast! True to form, I'm continuing my trend of changing things up & keeping it interesting. For the first time, I'm in the position where I can give you a roadmap of where we'll be going over the course of this season. So I want to kick off season 9 by giving you that overview, including who you're going to hear from over the next few weeks, and what some of the topics are going to be. But that's not all! I also want to let you know a little bit about my upcoming free virtual retreat day on January 20th. This evert is for you...
info_outlineA lot has changed over the years since I started my podcast — for me, both personally and professionally, but also in the wider world. That's why, for the first solo episode of the season, I wanted to dig into the ways in which this podcast has evolved, and the changes I've made to reflect that evolution.
I believe there's a new generation of leaders on the rise. We have shit to say and a world to change, and now is a beautiful time for anyone feeling the call to assume some responsibility! I want us to ask ourselves how we can be better leaders, who show up in authenticity (even if we're the only ones in the room doing it).
So that's where this podcast is going, and I'm thrilled that you're along for the ride with me. You've probably already noticed that we'll have some great tunes to accompany us along the way — and I'm going to talk a little bit about the new song, too!
