In this episode of the Women’s Career Mastery Podcast, Christine and Laura talk with writer, teacher, and coach Emily Sadowski, PhD about what it really means to be a leader. Emily explains how leadership isn’t just about having a big job title—it’s about knowing yourself, being honest, and showing up with kindness and strength.
They discuss how we all lead in our daily lives, the value of being responsible, and how trusting your gut (intuition!) can help you make decisions. Emily also shares ideas from her new book about how listening to yourself can guide you through uncertain times.
This episode is filled with practical tips and deep insights that will help you think about leadership in a new way—at work and in life.
