Have you ever wondered if there is a more emotionally and spiritually whole way to connect at work and home? That’s the question behind Karen Hardwick’s book, The Connected Leader. Mike sits down with Karen to walk through several strategies designed to help empower your true self and inspire others along the way.

Karen Hardwick is a psychotherapist-turned-leadership consultant who claims to have the “best two jobs in the world: being her son, Matthew’s, mother and helping leaders have “eureka” moments that transform them. She considers both jobs more “callings” than work. In addition to being a speaker and author, Karen also hosts a podcast called “Saving You a Seat,” where she and her guests dig deep into life’s messiness and share how connection is the antidote.
