Over my career, I’ve learned a lot about leadership. Some of it through great experiences and some (if not most) through doing things the hard way.

Many lessons weren’t things people sat me down and taught me. They were things I learned over time through leading teams, making mistakes, getting overwhelmed, building confidence, and figuring out what leadership actually looks like in real life.

In this solo episode,  I’m sharing five leadership lessons that I wish I had learned earlier because I think they would have made navigating leadership (and my career in general) feel a little easier.

I talk about:

•  Why leadership is less about having all the answers and more about creating space where people feel safe to contribute 
•  Why you can’t lead everyone the same way—and how understanding communication and strengths matters 
•  Why burnout isn’t proof that you care (and what I’ve learned about leadership and rest) 
•  Why confidence usually comes after doing the thing, not before 
•  Why self-awareness might be one of the most important leadership skills you can build

Whether you’re leading a team, stepping into leadership for the first time, or just trying to grow in how you show up for others, I hope this episode gives you something to reflect on and maybe makes your leadership journey feel a little less lonely.
