Stand Tall & Own It - Empowering Purpose-Driven Women to Lead with Authenticity and Impact
"Just be you!" they say. But for high-performing women, "just being you" hasn’t always felt safe or practical—whether it’s at work, school, church, or even at exclusive networking events. For purpose-driven women and founders, holding back can limit your impact and undermine your authenticity.
Even in a world that’s more welcoming to strong female leaders, feeling truly "safe" in your own skin is still a challenge. To lead with clarity and confidence, you must first understand your value, embrace your individuality, and recognize that the solutions you need are as unique as you are.
This podcast is for modern women who lead with purpose and are ready to embrace their full potential and create an impact that aligns with their vision and values. It’s time to find the clarity and confidence to lead in a way that’s authentic to you. Join me as we explore how to navigate challenges, honor your unique path, and make a lasting difference.

1 BIG IDEA
Resilient teams don’t happen by accident. They’re built—on purpose—by leaders who understand that the culture they create directly impacts whether their people thrive or burn out.
4 WAYS TO APPLY THIS
- Create space for reflection—individually and together
- Normalize asking for help and naming limits
- Build in recovery rhythms after high-output seasons
- Foster peer-to-peer support and shared ownership
3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
- What signs of team burnout am I seeing right now?
- Have I created enough space for recovery and cohesion?
- How does my leadership model resilience—especially in high-pressure seasons?
