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.

BIG IDEA
Confidence in leadership doesn’t come from controlling every variable—it comes from knowing how to lead when everything feels out of control. Agile leaders don’t just pivot—they stay grounded in their values and lead with steady presence, clarity, and courage.
5 WAYS TO APPLY THIS
- Recognize agility as a leadership posture, not a panic move
Use your Core Values as anchors in uncertain situations - Communicate clearly and consistently—even when you don’t have all the answers
- Practice presence by checking your energy and showing up steady
- Cultivate Intentional Optimism to lead with vision and courage in chaos
3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF
- Where do I tend to freeze or over-control when things feel uncertain?
- Which of my Core Values can help guide my next decision or conversation?
- What kind of leadership presence do I want to model for my team in the unknown?
