NFL Head Coach Kevin O’Connell of the Minnesota Vikings recently spoke at a leadership event— and I couldn’t wait to hit record and share what I took away. In this episode, I walk through the powerful themes he shared, especially his two core pillars of leadership: authenticity and empathy. You’ll hear how these human-centered values show up in his leadership style, how they connect to the servant leadership philosophy, and why these skills are more essential than ever in 2025.

From leading in tough times to building a culture where people matter and belong, this is a reminder that leadership is deeply human - and that how we lead matters just as much as where we’re going.

In this episode, I’m reflecting on a question that’s been sitting with me lately: Does any of this really matter? It was sparked by a thoughtful LinkedIn post from Vanessa Forslev, and it’s a question many of us ask - especially during times of chaos, uncertainty, or overwhelm.

I talk about the very real pull to veer off course - even when the course still aligns with your purpose - and why it’s so important to stay grounded in your “why.” I also share powerful lessons from a client organization that’s staying the course despite external challenges, including funding cuts and political pressures. Their example is a beautiful reminder of what it looks like to lead with clarity, compassion, and courage.

If you’ve ever felt discouraged, distracted, or tempted to abandon a path that once felt meaningful - this episode is for you.

In this third episode of the Magic of a Quote series, I unpack one of Walt Disney’s most well-known and powerful quotes: “All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them.” I reflect on Walt’s journey, the setbacks he faced, and how his unwavering belief in his vision inspires my own path.

More importantly, I explore how this quote translates into real life—what it means to have courage, why it's often the missing ingredient in goal achievement, and how we can all take meaningful action despite fear or uncertainty.

Whether your dream is big or small, this episode is your nudge to take the next brave step.

In this episode, I’m diving into one of my favorite quotes from the Broadway version of Mary Poppins: “Open different doors. You may find a you that you never knew was yours.” I share how this quote has shaped my own journey—especially the leap from corporate life to running my own business—and how it continues to inspire the work I do today.

We’ll talk about the power of self-awareness, the courage it takes to try something new, and how real leadership growth often comes from stepping into the unknown. If there’s a version of you you haven’t met yet, maybe it’s time to open a new door.

In this episode, I share a powerful self-awareness moment that unfolded during my son's first high school football camp. What began as empathy quickly revealed itself as something else—projected anxiety, assumptions, and imposter syndrome I was unknowingly carrying on his behalf.

I explore the difference between empathy, being an empath, and projected empathy—and how this subtle but impactful emotional projection shows up in leadership. You'll hear real-life leadership examples, what to do when you recognize this in yourself, and why showing up with trust instead of assumption changes everything.

In the final installment of the Keys to Leadership Magic series, we're diving into the third key: Connection. While Character and Confidence help anchor your leadership from the inside out, Connection is the human thread that brings it all together. It's what fuels trust, collaboration, and psychological safety in the workplace.

In this episode, I explore why connection is not just a “nice to have,” but a strategic leadership priority. You'll hear insights from my recent HR conference presentation, discover the powerful ripple effects of meaningful connection, and learn my 6-part CREATE framework designed to help you embed connection into your leadership style and organizational culture.

Whether you're leading a team, navigating hybrid work, or simply want to deepen your impact, this episode offers the mindset and action steps to help you lead with greater authenticity, empathy, and influence.

Confidence is one of the most essential - and misunderstood - keys to leadership magic. In this second episode of the Three Keys to Leadership Magic series, we explore what confidence truly is, what gets in the way of it, and how to build it from the inside out.

You’ll hear personal stories, practical strategies, and mindset shifts that help cultivate what I call grounded confidence - the kind that allows you to take risks, face feedback, and lead with authenticity even when you’re unsure or uncomfortable.

Whether you struggle with imposter syndrome, people-pleasing, or self-doubt, this episode will help you understand how to override limiting beliefs and start showing up with boldness and trust in yourself. Because when you lead from belief—not proof—you create real impact.
