We Don’t Need Another Leadership Podcast. Here’s Why I Made One Anyway

Over the past several months, I’ve been speaking inside some of the world’s most recognizable brands —from Harvard, to Fortune 500 companies like Kraft Heinz, Campbells, Haleon and Outback Steakhouse—talking to executives who are carrying tremendous responsibility. These are people who have checked all the traditional boxes of success, but are quietly wrestling with the same unspoken tension I once felt myself.

Let’s be honest: we’re drowning in leadership content.

Podcasts, books, TED Talks, LinkedIn think pieces—there’s no shortage of advice on how to be a better leader. Most of it sounds the same: optimize your calendar, build high-performing teams, hit your KPIs, delegate more, hustle smarter, be 10% better before sunrise.

And yet, in rooms full of highly accomplished professionals, I hear the same quiet confessions:

• "I feel empty."
• "I’m exhausted, but can’t slow down."
• "I’ve built a career I’m supposed to love, but something is missing."

That’s the part most leadership conversations avoid. The part where success doesn’t feel like you thought it would. The part where you're carrying the weight of the title but quietly wondering: is this really it?

That’s why I made The Joy CEO Podcast.

Not because we need another voice telling us how to lead harder, better, faster. But because we need more honest conversations about leading with our whole selves—about reclaiming what got buried under the grind.

This isn’t about becoming superhuman. It’s about coming home to yourself.

• The version of you that doesn’t perform for approval.
• The leader who knows their worth without overfunctioning.
• The person who remembers that JOY isn’t a frivolous extra—it’s a strategic advantage.

My corporate career taught me how to climb. My pivot taught me how to live. This podcast is where I share both—and invite other high-achieving professionals to do the same.

Because the real leadership edge isn't another framework. It's your own clarity, presence, and peace.

If you're ready for conversations that go beneath the surface—that challenge the noise and affirm what you already sense inside—I invite you to join me.
