Stand Tall & Own It - Equipping Purpose-Driven Leaders to Show Up with Authenticity and Courage
“Just be you,” they say. But for many high-achievers, “just being you” hasn’t always felt safe or practical—whether it’s at work, school, church, or even in leadership circles. For purpose-driven leaders, holding back can limit your impact and undermine your authenticity.
Even in workplaces that claim to value individuality, leading with confidence and conviction still takes courage. To lead with steadiness and clarity, you must first understand your values, embrace your individuality, and recognize that the solutions you need are as unique as you are.
Stand Tall & Own It is for modern leaders who want to lead with purpose, integrity, and courage—without sacrificing who they are. Each episode explores how to navigate challenges, make values-anchored decisions, and cultivate the discernment to think critically in a noisy world.
If you’re ready to explore your Core Values and lead with intention, check out my Core Values Blueprint and Core Values Coaching for practical tools to help you grow.

After exploring 5 powerful tools in previous episodes, I've noticed some common questions and concerns among our listeners. While many are eager to dive in, I've also heard about the challenges faced by friends and clients. Here's the reality: none of these tools is a one-size-fits-all solution. They offer insights, yes, but the real answers lie within you.
It’s much simpler than you think. Before you buy or try anything else, ask yourself: is this a challenge, or am I struggling? Your Core Values hold the key. Knowing yourself gives you the confidence to distinguish between struggle and challenge. Challenges propel you forward, build your courage, and deepen your understanding, while struggles bog you down and rob you of your energy. Once you've identified whether it's a challenge or a struggle, you can make decisions with authority to act in ways that will help move you through to the next level.
