Know When To Grow!

You were never meant to dim yourself to fit in.

Leading from the Root is the podcast for high-achieving women and mothers who are done performing and ready to lead — starting with themselves.

Hosted by Khalia Stokes — certified executive, career, and business coach, senior finance leader, author, and mother — this show is built on one foundational truth: before you can lead others well, you have to lead yourself first.

This is integrated leadership. Not the textbook version. Not the version the world handed you when it told you to get the degree, climb the ladder, and make everyone around you comfortable. The real version — where you show up as the same woman in the boardroom, at home, on the sideline of your kid's game, and everywhere in between.

Because when your roots run deep, nothing can shake what you're building.

Each episode is an honest conversation about identity, values, mindset, and what it actually looks like to lead your whole life — not just the parts the world can see. No shrinking. No performing. No waiting for permission to be exactly who you already are.

This is for the woman who has checked every box and still feels like something is missing. The one carrying everyone else while quietly losing herself. The one who knows she has more to offer — and is finally ready to bring all of it to the table.

When you lead from the root, everything you touch gets to flourish.
