๐ซ Leading As A Father Without Losing Yourself | Kenyada Meadows & Bryan Ward | Ep. 324
๐ In this episode of the Dad Up Podcast, I sit down with Kenya Meadows,
๐ Kenyada Meadows believes the old model of dominance, control, and self-sacrifice is broken and itโs costing men their families, their health, and their humanity.
๐ Kenyada is a financial services executive, governance expert, board member, and leadership coach with over 25 years leading audit, risk, and compliance across some of the worldโs most demanding Wall Street institutions.
๐ Heโs a Harvard Business School alumnus, author, and Master Certified Executive Coach, holding CPA, CIA, and CFE credentials.
๐ Kenyada mastered the traditional playbook, outworking, outlasting, outperforming, until life forced a reckoning.
๐ As senior leadership responsibilities collided with fatherhood and caring for an ailing parent, he confronted the hidden cost of success and questioned whether well-being could survive on the margins.
๐ That turning point led him to develop The New Alpha, a powerful framework built on three pillars: Home, Work, and Self.
๐ This approach redefines leadership through balance, emotional integrity, and presence, where vulnerability becomes strength and wholeness becomes the true measure of success.
๐ Today, weโre talking about how men can lead with purpose, show up fully at home, and succeed at work, without losing themselves in the process.
๐ Follow the Dad Up Podcast for more conversations on fatherhood, leadership, and becoming the man your family needs.
