What makes a great leader and how can you advance career while staying true to your values? In this insightful conversation, Dr. Ronicka Briscoe shares the strategies and mindset shifts that have helped her and women she interviewed step into high-impact leadership roles.

Join Host Natalie Benamou as she talks with Dr. Briscoe, Founder of Winning on the Road, LLC, and advocate for community transformation. From developing a leadership mindset to supporting the next generation, this episode offers real-world insights to help you grow with intention.

4 C-Suite Lessons to Amplify Your Success

1. Leadership Requires a Circle, Not a Ladder: Surrounding yourself with diverse mentors, sponsors, and peers is key to sustained leadership growth.
2. Own Your Strengths: The most successful leaders know and leverage their natural talents—this clarity drives momentum.
3. Plan for Career and Life: Discover the benefit of intentional planning and how it sets you up for success.
4. Prioritize Mental Well-being: Despite high-stakes roles, few leaders seek support. Dr. Briscoe challenges the stigma and shares why mental health must be part of the leadership conversation—especially for women of color.

“We are born with innate talents, abilities, and strengths. If we live our lives to really develop those rather than focusing on the things we can't do and our weaknesses, then we live a more fulfilled life.”-Dr. Ronicka Harrison-Briscoe

Reflect on your personal value proposition. After listening to Dr. Briscoe’s insights, take a moment to ask yourself: What do I bring to the table that no one else can? Write it down. This act of self-awareness is the first step toward amplifying your leadership presence and making intentional career decisions.

Since this podcast released, Dr. Briscoe is a Bestselling Author in Brave Women at Work: Lessons in Leadership and she has an anthology that will be coming out in the fall. She is a valued member of HerCsuite® and has her own community of authors inside HerCsuite®. Dr. Briscoe is also a featured speaker at the Thrive in 2025 Women's Conference in Chicago, June 25-28th.

Thank you Dr. Briscoe for being on the show today. We can't wait to see you in Real Life in Chicago!
