Today on Counsel Culture, I'm joined by Laura King, executive recruiter, coach, and now published author, who has conducted more than 30,000 executive interviews. Laura has a rare vantage point on leadership and identity: why so many high performers pin their worth to a title, and what changes when we shift from "What do I do?" to "Who am I?" She helps leaders trade burnout for alignment by doing the inner work that fuels real, sustainable impact.

She's here to share insights from her new book, Shine Brighter: The High Performer's Guide to Purpose, Presence, and Peak Living. Inside, Laura lays out her 4A framework; Awareness, Attitude, Action, Alignment, offering practical, human-first tools to build careers that actually fit. If you're navigating transition, eyeing "career 2.0," or simply ready to show up more fully in work and life, this conversation will help you find your spark—and keep it lit.

This show is dedicated to Laura's journey. This conversation is what we make it. This is Counsel Culture.
