In this episode of The Seed, I sit down with leadership coach, keynote speaker, and author Lisa Even — a woman who radiates energy, purpose, and pure heart. Lisa believes joy is a job, not something we wait around for, and she’s on a mission to help leaders create massive ripple effects in their work, homes, and communities.

We dig into:

Lisa’s refreshingly simple process for writing her first book Joy Is My Job

Why joy fuels success (and how to bring it back into your life now—not “someday”)

Leadership as a verb, not a title

Her powerful PB&J 1:1 framework that transforms team culture

How tiny interactions create lasting ripple effects

The biggest leadership mistakes—and how to fix them

A preview of her upcoming book The Ripple Effect coming soon

Real stories, real tools, and real talk about leading with heart

This conversation is full of practical wisdom and soul-level truth. If you’re a leader, a builder, a dreamer—or just someone trying to make a difference—this episode is for you.
