This bittersweet episode (our first without Katherine 😭) dives into how leading with love 💕 can shift HR from a transactional, policy-driven function into a people-first mission that fosters connection, trust, and long-term impact.
Too often, HR is seen as the rule enforcer or the bearer of bad news, but at its core, this work is about helping people thrive—both professionally and personally. 🌱✨
I’ll be sharing real-life experiences that shaped my belief in heart-centered leadership, including times when choosing empathy over rigid enforcement led to unexpected positive outcomes.
But let’s be real—leading with love isn’t always easy.
We’ll talk about the challenges that come with it, like setting boundaries, handling resistance, and ensuring that love doesn’t mean a lack of accountability.
Most importantly, I’ll explore the mindset shifts that have helped me show up with more compassion and care, even in difficult situations.

Whether you’re an HR professional feeling disconnected from the "human" side of HR or a leader looking to build a culture rooted in kindness and respect, this episode is packed with insights and actionable strategies to help you lead with love—without losing yourself in the process. 💪💖
🎙️ Tune in, reflect, and let’s redefine HR together! 🌟
