Leadership isn’t about control—it’s about clarity, emotional intelligence, and the ability to lead through uncertainty.

In this episode of Keeping It Real on Purpose, we sit down with Amy Jacobson to unpack what it really takes to own your leadership in the midst of workplace chaos. From navigating high-pressure environments to managing emotions—your own and others’—this conversation goes beyond theory and into real-life leadership moments that test resilience, communication, and self-awareness.

Together, we explore how emotionally intelligent leaders create stability without micromanaging, set boundaries without disconnecting, and lead teams through change without losing trust. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by conflict, burnout, or constant demands at work, this episode will help you rethink how you show up as a leader—starting from the inside out.

This is a conversation for professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, and emerging leaders who are ready to stop reacting and start leading with purpose.

Do you ever look at a finished manuscript and secretly fear you’re not a "real" writer, despite the evidence?

I am joining The School of Fiction with host Matt Posner as I share some ways to tackle the most paralyzing fear for creatives: Imposter Syndrome in the Fiction Writer. Edna White, joins a panel of writers across diverse genres to discuss this universal struggle.

We dive deep into:

• The Internal Critic: Why writers—especially those just starting or switching genres—feel unoriginal or fear public judgment.
• The Paralysis of Perfectionism: How the Imposter Cycle leads to writer's block and procrastination.
• Actionable Strategies: Practical, genre-agnostic tools for shifting self-perception, separating facts from feelings, and showing up at the page with confidence.

If you struggle with the doubt that prevents you from finishing your novel or hitting "publish," this conversation offers the validation and strategies you need to reclaim your power as a storyteller.
