Why I’m Starting a Podcast (And Why You Might Need to Hear It)

If I’m being honest, I’ve wanted to launch a podcast for a long time.

But I hesitated.

The usual voices crept in—What if no one listens? Can I really do this? Aren’t there already a million podcasts out there?

And then one day, I got clear:
If even one person hears an episode that shifts something in them… then it’s worth it.

Because I already know it’s going to shift something in me.

This podcast will give me the chance to have the kinds of conversations I crave—real, honest, layered. To interview powerful leaders. To ask bold questions about what it really takes to rise… and what happens when we fall.

The truth?

I couldn’t find this kind of podcast.
Most leadership shows are either packed with tactics or polished into a highlight reel.

You won’t find that here.

The Joy CEO podcast is for the high-achieving leader who’s already earned the title, built the team, hit the milestones—and is still wondering, Is this it?

It’s for the woman who has the seat at the table but feels like she’s leaving parts of herself outside the boardroom.

It’s for the man who’s quietly asking, What’s the cost of all this success?

It’s for the ones who crave more impact, more presence, more JOY—but don’t have the language or support to get there yet.

After decades inside corporate America, I know what it means to wear the power suit and feel powerless inside. I’ve been the woman who looked like she had it all - but felt hollow in the quiet moments. And I’ve coached hundreds of high-performers who’ve confided the same:

• “I feel like I’m disappearing.”
• “I’ve outgrown this version of me.”
• “I just want to feel like myself again.”

This is why I’m creating this space. 

In each episode, you’ll hear:

• Strategic insights from my 20+ years in leading global brands
• Coaching tools I give my private clients to create real momentum
• Personal stories that don’t make the LinkedIn posts—but should.

Because leadership should feel like wholeness, not performance.

Because JOY isn’t a reward you earn at the end of the grind—it’s the compass you lead with.

And because I believe with every fiber of my being:

You shouldn’t have to burn out, bow down, or bargain with your values to rise.

The podcast launches mid-June 2025. I’d be honored to have you listen in.

Let’s redefine success—with joy at the center.
