In this episode, I talk to Jennifer Jensen about embracing a more authentic, ego-free approach. Jennifer shares how emerging leaders can close the leadership gap and build lasting influence rooted in self-trust and team connection.

Introduction

Hello, I'm Jennifer Jensen, and I'm passionate about transforming leaders into their most authentic selves. In a world where leadership is often seen as a title rather than a journey of self-awareness and team collaboration, my mission is to support leaders in embracing authenticity and unlocking their true potential.

I address the complexities of leadership through one-on-one advisory sessions, comprehensive six-month or one-year leadership programs, and industry-leading tools such as Lumina Spark, Leader, and Leader 360 psychometrics. These methods cultivate insight, effectiveness, and meaningful change for leaders and their teams.

My clients often express that working with me is extremely insightful, productive, and transformational. They recognize the value of self-awareness and authentic collaboration, often wishing they had started this journey sooner. I'm here to guide emerging managers and directors—those eager to bridge the gap in leadership capabilities and become influential leaders in their fields.

My passion for this work stems from witnessing the impact of leadership gaps firsthand. It's disheartening how few people can point to more than one or two great leaders they've encountered in their careers. I am committed to closing this gap by mentoring and advising upcoming leaders in a way that truly supports their growth and readiness for our ever-evolving world.

My unique perspective is rooted in years of managing teams without traditional authority but with full accountability. This experience taught me to adapt my leadership style and become an effective motivator and collaborator. I've captured this journey in my book, "Developing Authentic Leaders," where I share a common-sense approach to leadership that's surprisingly uncommon.

Audiences love my straightforward and engaging style, and I bring a wealth of real-world experience and actionable insights to every speaking engagement. Let's work together to foster the authentic leaders of tomorrow—leaders who will not only survive but thrive in today’s complex landscape.

In this episode I talk to Tracy Wallace about how her life experiences have helped her cultivate emotional intelligence so that she can support herself and others.

Introduction

A Southern California native, Tracy grew up in a suburb just outside of Los Angeles proper, navigating the world as an only child. After graduating from USC with a Bachelor's in Business Administration, she opened her own retail store in Old Pasadena - a men's clothing store - and became integral to the area, being asked to serve on the area's inaugural Business Improvement District's Board.

Remaining an entrepreneur at heart, over the next 30 years, she went on to become a professional fundraiser for a host of nonprofits, and raised over $35 million for a number of causes, including homelessness, youth services and animal rescue. At the same time, she fulfilled a lifelong dream of becoming a stand-up comedian and performing in the top local clubs. She did this all while taking care of her Type 1 diabetic husband, bunnies, a horse, dogs and a cat.

In this episode I talk to Emma Mason about how women who are senior leaders can find themselves at a crossroad in their career and what to do if this happens.

Introduction

Emma is a Success Coach for senior women leaders at a crossroads in their career. She helps them gain the clarity and confidence they need to decide on the next career move that's right for you so you can rewrite the narrative about what it means to be a woman with influence.

As a former public servant, Emma understand the challenges of navigating a corporate career. Over 14 years she grew my career to the senior executive ranks. She was involved in large organizational change projects, managed multiple million-dollar budgets and led large teams of people through significant transformations. But despite being qualified, capable and experienced she found herself burnt out and broken, leaving a career I loved. The truth is if she knew then what she knows now she probably would have made a different decision.

Emma couldn't find what she needed when she found herself at a career crossroad despite her best efforts. And so, she combined her professional expertise in organizational psychology with her experience as a senior executive leader to fill the gap. As a result, she has uncovered the key reasons women find themselves at this juncture and as result created a unique but powerful approach.

In this episode I talk to Adele Wiejaczka about her experience at a time in her life when everything she built no longer feelt right. She shares how a business betrayal forced her to reevaluate success which lead to deeper alignment, better boundaries, and a new form of leadership rooted in self-trust, clarity, and nervous system regulation.

Introduction

Adele is a brand strategist, creative intuitive, and former university professor turned entrepreneur. With over 13 years of experience, she helps soul-led coaches, authors, and creatives build brands rooted in authenticity, emotional intelligence, and aligned leadership.

She began her business journey in a dry cabin in remote Alaska, continued it while working remotely from Bali, and now runs a six-figure brand strategy business from a DIY truck camper while exploring the backroads of Colorado. Her work blends brand clarity with energetic alignment—helping entrepreneurs grow without burning out or losing themselves in the process.

Adele’s leadership philosophy is grounded in self-awareness, nervous system regulation, and honoring diverse ways of thinking, working, and showing up. As someone who’s worked with highly sensitive, neurodivergent, and multi-passionate leaders, she knows that the most effective leadership doesn’t come from control—it comes from clarity, trust, and grounded presence.

She brings a refreshing perspective to conversations around business, mindset, psychological safety, and what it truly means to lead from within.

In this episode I talk to Jennifer Hendler about the difference between being fiercely independence and interdependence in relationships and with ourselves.

Introduction

Jennifer is the founder of Claiming My Voice, a Holistic Psychotherapy practice that specializes in helping women break free from stifling their voice to reach their full potential. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Holistic Life Coach, Relationship Coach and Flower Essence Therapist.

From Jennifer’s website she says:

I work with motivated, visionary souls of service who feel like they have to self-sacrifice to achieve their dreams. I help them Claim Their Voices so they never have to lose themselves again to belong and succeed. And I teach them how to build evolutionary relationships that lead to soul-satisfying connection and a more peaceful planet.

For 25 years I’ve been making it safe for women to trust themselves, communicate authentically, and share power.

I know how painful it is to be unseen, unheard, and unmet; to shrink from relentless self-doubt; to get depleted from poor boundaries, and obsess over difficult relationship dynamics. It’s taken me a lifetime of courage to grab the reins and Claim My Voice in a world that often doesn’t understand, validate, or include my holistic perspective

In this episode I talk to Alyssa Decker who shares her inspirational story as well as offering gems for listeners to apply in their life-personally and professionally when navigating conflict.

Introduction

Alyssa understands that your journey through difficult relationships is tough, because she’s been there. It took her a few years to figure out how to show up to her most challenging relationships the way she wanted to (with confidence and peace).

Now, Alyssa is here to help you make the same shift, in far less time. She knows from experience that what is happening in your relationship might not be your fault at all. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t change it, simply by learning the skills of navigating these relationships… and oftentimes, the relationship changes when you change how you are showing up. Alyssa is a certified life coach, with additional education in CBT and NLP. Learning is always useful, but when combined with life experience, it’s a game changer.

In this episode I talk to Jill Schultz about her journey as a successful entrepreneur and what leading with integrity means to her leadership style and how she approaches life decisions.

Introduction

Jill Schultz is a serial entrepreneur, industry disruptor, author, motivational speaker, and business strategist.

In her courageous work around her own healing, she has been able to let go of the debilitating shame and self-loathing that had kept her paralyzed for forty-one years. The realization that helped her out of this shame was that she was not alone.

Jill’s warmth, understanding, lived experience and quick wit diffuse some of the heaviness around this subject. Jill is an expert in shame, and if there were degrees (Associates, Bachelors, Masters, PHD, double PHDs,) in shame, she’d have them all.

Jill’s approach will leave you free to create a space for love, success, and abundance.

In this episode I talk to Leslie Galloway about cultivating confidence and courage through emotional intelligence (EQ), trust, connection and mental fitness (PQ).

Bio:

I founded Interleap with the vision to create a place where leaders could find their human side in the midst of their businesses. As Founder and CEO, my mission is to create content and coaching that connects with clients and invites them to explore and grow into their greatest areas of potential. In a world where distractions often lead to unwanted complacency, leaders need this focus now more than ever. My goal is to help them get beyond their limitations and into the possibilities around them that make designing their visions of work, life and businesses a reality.

My success in this space comes from a lifetime of study around human behavior, successfully coaching clients on organizational design and leadership as a partner with Capacity7 and before then, building leadership and team management expertise in upper management and executive roles in the Branding industry. My superpower throughout my career has always been the ability to connect, engage and disrupt for the sake of change and growth. My ability to activate leaders from stuck to making their next leap, is what drives the success of my clients forward. I’m known as the go-to for relationship and team building and for creating impact and results through emotional intelligence (EQ), trust, connection, disruption and mental fitness. I believe the results of performance, success, and fulfillment come down to the people and teams leading them. Fulfilled leaders and teams create amazing things. We need more fulfilled leaders and they need places like Interleap to practice reconnecting with their who, why and what in order to create even bigger results for themselves and their businesses.

I have helped thousands of leaders recognize and reframe their growth and possibilities through 1-1, group and team coaching. My coaching sets leaders in motion by helping them reconnect with themselves and their vision for what matters and what’s next for them. This connection allows them to become evangelists for whatever movement they want to create a following for, big or small. I get to live it, so I know it’s possible. Coaching is an extension of who I am and why I show up in the world.

On a personal side, I am wife to Woody and mom to Grace and golden retrievers, Winnie and Birdie. I also have the most outstanding step-kids and spouses and grandkids you could imagine knowing. Non-negotiable 10s in my life are my faith which makes me who I am, family, friends, and the constant act of learning and growing. Add health, wellness and exercise of almost any form to this list. I love a good competition, especially on the tennis court.

In this episode I talk to Aja Rutledge about creating safety wherever you go and trauma in the workplace.

Introduction

Aja's journey from perceived health to debilitating illness marked a shocking pivot in her life, one for which she was unprepared. After traditional medicine failed her, Aja took control of her own health through education, trauma recovery, and wellness practices. Now, as a certified trauma-trained Self-Alignment coach, she empowers others to align their lives and bodies, manage their wellness (with professional support), and manifest their desires.

Aja also embraces life as much as she can. Living abroad with her family, Aja has embraced the beauty and challenges of adapting to a new culture. Despite her busy schedule, Aja never misses a day of walking on the beach, finding solace and clarity in the rhythm of the waves. Learning to reconnect and realign with herself has been her biggest gift from her trauma recovery, and she is passionate about guiding others on their own journeys to self-discovery and healing.

In this episode I talk to Milam Miller the ABC's of Charismatic Leadership and how it helps to build connection and positively influences and motivates others.

Bio:

BCK – “Be Confident and Kind” – was a private mantra created by Milam Miller to serve him in the business world. During his career in Sports & Entertainment, Milam negotiated more than $100MM in commercial revenue. From the red carpet of The ESPY Awards in Los Angeles to the desert dunes of Doha (Qatar), Milam built deep relationships through his genuine care for people.

What was once a personal philosophy is now a public movement to positively transform the future of work. Milam authors thought-leadership on how charisma is human connection, not false attraction. Principles he touches on include: how to influence, motivate, and persuade others. Milam works with executives, senior leaders and new managers, alike. He also facilitates interactive workshops for corporations, including Amazon.

He’s been described by clients as “The Real-Life Ted Lasso” and his heart is as big as the state he hails from–you guessed it, Texas! Milam’s lived experience of corporate burnout, and what he learned from it, creates a refreshing dialogue on workplace connection and the importance of mindful leadership for employee well-being.

To learn more about him and his leadership development practice, you can find links in our show notes.

In this episode I talk to Dr. Katherine Iscoe about her research on the differences between self-worth, self-esteem and confidence and how self-respect becomes the foundation of a healthy and meaningful life. Dr. Iscoe explains HAPP (high achieving people-pleaser) and how to re-frame the stories we tell ourselves.

Introduction

Dr Katherine Iscoe is a keynote speaker, author, board member, former CEO of a dual-listed public company, academic mentor and summa cum laude graduate with multiple scholarships and awards.

Despite these achievements and perceived public success, Katherine’s mental health was teetering on collapse; she hid a debilitating eating disorder for over two decades, persevered through severe depression and thoughts of suicide and most recently quit 'life' and her career during a emotional breakdown.

It is precisely these deeply personal experiences that have shaped Katherine's latest research focus: the inseparable connection between self-respect and self-leadership, because at the core of her struggle for inner peace, it was a lack of self-respect that influenced her self-destructive tendencies.

Her latest research reveals that self-respect enables a leader to push the limits of their potential by recognizing their inherent worth and significance, enabling them to embrace calculated risks and break barriers, fostering a deep belief in their ability to make a meaningful impact. Self-respecting leaders also communicate with more confidence, exhibit greater resilience, live free of imposter syndrome, and wholeheartedly embrace a growth mindset.

In this episode I talk to Catherine LifeDesign about emotional intelligence from a nervous system perspective.

Introduction

Catherine is a nervous system, purpose & business coach... but most of all a total freedom lover. That’s why she created her business LifeDesign because as a teenager she suffered from narcissistic and emotional abuse and DIDN'T have any freedom to be who she truly was.

Little did she now that her childhood experiences would trigger her nervous system into constant survival mode (fight, flight, freeze), which showed up in her business as procrastination, overwhelm, perfectionism, ADHD, fear, doubt and self-sabotage etc.

Then all of a sudden, Catherine’s health collapsed and she was diagnosed with autoimmune disease, chronic fatigue, anxiety, cPTSD (complex trauma), depression and 30+ other diagnoses & symptoms. She thought she was going to die at 41. Until she discovered nervous system regulation and brain retraining.

Within 4 months she healed, became symptom-free, energetic, joyful... normal again! Catherine then started to apply the same principles and tools that she had used to heal her body & soul to her business... and it friggin changed EVERYTHING!

In this episode I talk to Dr. Katherine Iscoe about her research on the differences between self-worth, self-esteem and confidence and how self-respect becomes the foundation of a healthy and meaningful life.

Introduction

Dr Katherine Iscoe is a keynote speaker, author, board member, former CEO of a dual-listed public company, academic mentor and summa cum laude graduate with multiple scholarships and awards.

Despite these achievements and perceived public success, Katherine’s mental health was teetering on collapse; she hid a debilitating eating disorder for over two decades, persevered through severe depression and thoughts of suicide and most recently quit 'life' and her career during a emotional breakdown.

It is precisely these deeply personal experiences that have shaped Katherine's latest research focus: the inseparable connection between self-respect and self-leadership, because at the core of her struggle for inner peace, it was a lack of self-respect that influenced her self-destructive tendencies.

Her latest research reveals that self-respect enables a leader to push the limits of their potential by recognising their inherent worth and significance, enabling them to embrace calculated risks and break barriers, fostering a deep belief in their ability to make a meaningful impact. Self-respecting leaders also communicate with more confidence, exhibit greater resilience, live free of imposter syndrome, and wholeheartedly embrace a growth mindset.

Introduction

Kat Frey is the owner and founder of Oxygen Coaching Group and The Thalassa Group, speaker, author, and coach.

She has post-secondary education in engineering, human resources, manufacturing engineering, and project management along with CAD/CAM.

In this episode I talk to Tiana Tefy about the power of feminine leadership. We discuss how it is not about gender, it is about how leaders choose to connect with themselves and others.

Introduction

Tiana was born and grew up in the beautiful island of Madagascar and has had the great fortune to have lived in different countries and had had a varied career.

She holds a PhD in Mathematics and worked for about two decades in the field of aerospace research. She also trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine and practiced QI GONG and Meditation for over 2 decades. Tiana started teaching QI GONG 20 years ago and when she started to share the energy practices of QI GONG, she quickly realized there was very little support for women to experience their menstruation, pregnancy, post-partum, menopause, post-menopause or sexuality with ease and grace.

As a result, she decided to dedicate her work to help women unleash and harness their inner feminine power and bring it into all aspects of their life.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE DISCUSS THE TOPIC OF CHILDHOOD ABUSE. PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE IF THIS TOPIC IS TRIGGERING FOR YOU

In this episode I talk to Jill Schultz about her journey of overcoming shame she carried with her since her childhood and how she helps others live the life of their dreams.

Introduction

Jill Schultz is a serial entrepreneur, industry disruptor, author, motivational speaker, and business strategist.

Finally, after years of praying for her purpose, she finally realized her life’s work is to release people from shame and change the lens through which people see how children who have been sexually abused innocently and curiously experiment with other children. After years of deep personal works, she realized she is not alone and have been able to let go of the debilitating shame and self-loathing that has kept her paralyzed for the last 41 years. She bring this taboo topic to the light so that people can get beyond the shame and live the life of their dreams.

In her courageous work around her own healing, she has been able to let go of the debilitating shame and self-loathing that had kept her paralyzed for forty-one years. The realization that most helped her out of this shame was that she was not alone. That so many others had similar experiences became both a powerful source of light on her own path and a call to action to share her story.

Jill brings this taboo topic out of the shadows so that people can overcome their shame and live the life of their dreams. Jill’s warmth, understanding, lived experience and quick wit diffuse some of the heaviness around this subject. Jill is an expert in shame, and if there were degrees (Associates, Bachelors, Masters, PHD, double PHDs,) in shame, she’d have them all.

Whether or not you have suffered from sexual abuse, Jill’s approach to releasing any kind of shame will leave you free to create a space for love, success, and abundance.

Katelyn Denning is a coach for busy, working moms who are tired of feeling like life is just one long to-do list. As a full-time working mom of 3 young children, ages 8, 6, and 3, Katelyn understands what it’s like to juggle all of the different roles and responsibilities as a mom, professional, and woman.

Through her coaching practice, Mother Nurture, she helps women feel confident in their identity as a working mom, figure out their priorities in life, and make the most of their time so they can be more present - with their family, in their work, and in their lives.

Katelyn lives with her family in Cincinnati, Ohio. And while her “me time” doesn’t look the same as it did before kids, she still finds time to read, garden, workout, and enjoy a hot cup of coffee.

In this episode I talk to Raewyn Guerrero about the importance of understanding and treating the root cause of illness and not just the symptoms as well as the importance of creating wellness programs in the workplace that are sustainable and include the power of mindset.

Introduction

Raewyn integrates nutrition with psychology to bring about rapid transformation in the mental and physical health of individuals and organizations.

After years chasing symptoms in the Conventional Medicine World to address her own Anxiety, Burnout, IBS and Infertility, Raewyn discovered the evidence-based framework of Functional Medicine which reversed her medical diagnoses.

Inspired by the rapid transformation and shifts in her own health, she retrained in Functional Diagnostic Nutrition. Her work has evolved from hypnotherapy for anxiety, performance and personal development to using functional lab testing and personalized nutrition, to address IBS and chronic health conditions that can be holding you back from reaching your full potential.

Because when you get the body right, the brain will follow. Her mission is to awaken everyone she meets to the innate wisdom of the body, so that they can live longer with clarity, freedom and joy.

In this episode I talk to Amarya Morales about how climbing the corporate ladder sent her to hospital with burnout and a trip to India changed her life. Amarya says "How you start your day sets the mood for the rest of your day."

Introduction

In her ‘past life’, and for over 10 years, Amayra was busy climbing the corporate ladder until she hit her lowest health point – she burnt herself out and ended up in hospital.
Amayra started to question every aspect of her life and realised that her time in the corporate world was over.

She packed her bags and bought a one-way ticket to India to fulfil her dream of becoming a yoga teacher.

During her time in India, she became very sick and through a series of fortunate events, ended up at an Ayurvedic clinic.

For Amayra, this was the beginning of the end because through the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda she was able to connect the dots of her symptoms, and find good health again.

Because of her first-hand experience with Ayurveda, and realising the power of this ancient medicine, Amayra went on to study Ayurveda.

She now realises that her health challenges were a gift because it’s something she had to overcome to get to where she is today so that she can share her message from a place of experience, love and compassion.

Amayra now understands that her Dharma (soul’s mission) is to help women regain control of their health, life and happiness.

She loves working with women and seeing the progress and transformation they achieve through their hard work and commitment to change.

Amayra aims to empower women to see their kitchen as their pharmacy, sleep as medicine, movement as well-being, mindfulness practices as a powerful tool, self-care as vital and connection to Pachamama as healing.

I want to create conversations for emerging and experienced leaders to come together and discover a new way to lead, from the inside out. You already have everything that you need to be an exceptional leader, what we will uncover is the power of human connection and understanding how we are hard-wired to feel a true sense of belonging.

So, come join me, let’s create a community of leaders that are ready to challenge the status quo and who value human connections more than bottom lines.
