What happens when two cardiac arrests and a near-death experience force you to ask the hardest question: Why am I here?
Nio Queiro, CEO of The Queiro Group and Chief Strategy Officer at Nashville General Hospital, spent decades climbing the healthcare leadership ladder. She delivered results, earned titles, and built a reputation as an innovator. Then in 2021, everything stopped. After surviving sepsis, multiple surgeries, and waking from an induced coma, Neo realized she had been living for everyone else's approval but her own.
In this conversation with host Megan Bozzuto, Nio shares the moment she decided to stop chasing and start accepting herself. She breaks down the three phases of a leadership career, why imposter syndrome is really about being an imposter to yourself, and how presence — not performance — becomes your greatest asset as you rise.
Key takeaways from this episode:
- Your presence is the experience people have with you, not your resume - Imposter syndrome means you are an imposter to yourself — everyone else sees you as you show up - Know when a seat at the table no longer serves you and plan your exit intentionally - Identified joy lives in the small moments — a perfect strawberry, a favorite pen, a pink disco ball catching the light - Accept yourself. You are good enough. You do not need to change — you need to expand
If you are ready to stop seeking approval and start leading on your own terms, this episode is your invitation.

21: If you have great ideas, you need to know how to communicate them. At work as in relationships, it all starts with conveying confidence. But a challenge many high-achieving women run up against are bad speech habits that have been conditioned in us over the years. Without us even knowing it, these verbal crutches can damage our internal and projected confidence levels and can even negatively impact how we’re perceived at work. As women, we're naturally tuned for emotional intelligence and specialized for masterful communication. It also means that women in particular are more likely to behave in such a way to preserve relationships, which in spoken communication may sometimes be misconstrued to convey a lack of authority and low confidence. Today's guest, Kate McClare, CEO and Founder of Kate's Copy, joins Megan today to share her story of becoming a professional Copywriter, and how she's helping to bring awareness to the impact of using "minimizing words" like "just", "can", and "try", and the negative effect they can have on women in the workplace.
