There are leadership lessons you only learn by living them, often through burnout, over-explaining, and saying sorry when you shouldn’t have. In this episode, I’m sharing the mindset shifts that have reshaped how I lead and what I’m no longer apologizing for as I grow into unapologetic, grounded leadership.

From having standards and setting boundaries to resting without guilt and making decisions not everyone loves, th...

Some years pass quietly, but others leave a mark, and 2025 was one of those years. In this deeply personal episode, I’m reflecting on the growth, challenges, and quiet victories that have shaped me as a leader, mother, wife, and human. From running my first 10 miles to navigating tough leadership seasons, this is a conversation about becoming, not arriving.


Whether you're reflecting on your own year or simply...

In this episode, we unpack the often misunderstood distinction between being busy and being truly effective. Being busy can feel productive, validating, and even praised, but effectiveness is quieter, more intentional, and far more impactful over time. This conversation is for leaders, business owners, and high achievers who are doing a lot but still feeling behind.

We explore why busyness is often rewarded while effec...

 In today’s episode, we’re talking about a leadership shift every growing leader must make: moving from building a team that simply executes tasks to building a team that thinks, anticipates, and leads alongside you. If you’ve ever felt like everything flows through you or that it’s faster to just do it yourself, this episode is for you.


We explore why execution-only teams happen (and why it’s usually not your tea...

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the honest, human truth that you can be the same person at your core while showing up differently in different spaces. The steady, composed leader who walks into work each morning isn’t the exact same version who walks into a home full of toys, coffee cups, and a child with freshly self-cut bangs, and that doesn’t make you inconsistent. It makes you whole.


We talk about the iden...

In this episode, Katy opens up about her personal running journey and how it mirrors the emotional reality of leadership, messy, unglamorous, and absolutely worth it.


If you’ve ever felt like your hard work goes unnoticed or like you’re leading in silence, t...

 Some leaders command the room with volume, but what if true leadership doesn’t need to be loud? In this episode, we explore the underrated power of quiet confidence: the kind of strength that shows up calm, grounded, and intentional.

No one tells you how isolating leadership can feel, until you’re in it. In this episode, I’m opening up about the quiet ache that can come with leadership: the in-between space where you’re not quite “one of the team” anymore, but also not fully understood by those around you.


From my own experience navigating these dynamics in the workplace (and on the running trail), we’ll explore why leadership can feel lonely,...
