Episode 280: The Hidden Cost of Pressing Pause on Your Career
2026/04/17
She was a Senior Director. Maybe a VP. Performing at a high level.
Then something happened.
She walked away.
Told herself it was just a reset.
At first, it felt right. Even necessary.
Months later, she tried to come back… and nothing was landing the way it used to.
Something had shifted. Not in her capability.
In something else.
In this episode, I share a hard truth most people don't talk about - the hidden cost of stepping away, and why getting back in isn't as simple as you think.

Episode 279: You don't always have to "stay in your lane"
2026/04/11
I've been spending more time in the car lately, and it got me thinking…
there's a way people move through their careers that isn't obvious when you're in it.
You can feel busy, even productive, and still not really be moving the way you think you are. There are patterns, signals, and moments most people miss simply because they're focused on what's right in front of them.
Once you start to notice what's actually happening around you, the way you make decisions starts to shift. And when that happens, things begin to move differently.

Episode 278: 5 Office Politics Moves for Directors, VPs and SVPs
2026/04/06
At Director, VP, SVP, the work isn't actually the hard part. The functional know-how itself isn't the issue.
It's everything around it - the people, the dynamics, the decisions behind the scenes.
In this episode, I break down how to actually get things done when the stakes are high.

Episode 276: The Danger of Sloppy Thinking
2026/03/20
There's a pattern I see over and over with high-performing leaders.
A single comment. One conversation. That's all it takes.
It starts small… almost invisible. Feels completely rational. And then it builds in layers; quietly, until you're making decisions that don't look anything like the leader you thought you were becoming.

Episode 273: Why your internal promotion to Sr Dir, VP or C-Suite will feel underwhelming
2026/03/02
Have you ever earned the internal promotion you worked for… and felt nothing?
No adrenaline. No goosebumps. Saw the announcement go out and went back to whatever you were doing prior.
There's a reason that happens, especially at Senior Director, VP, and C-Suite levels.
And it has nothing to do with compensation.
I break it down in today's podcast episode.
