194 How to Find Joy in the “Messy Middle” with Lisa Parda

Senior leaders who listen to this episode recognize the moment it speaks to immediately. The pressure to perform has not eased. The demands have not slowed. And yet the strategies that once delivered certainty now require recalibration. This conversation meets leaders in that exact space, offering perspective, grounding, and a steadier way forward without walking away from what they have built.

We sit down with author and radio host Lisa Parda to explore what leadership looks like in the in-between season so many leaders quietly navigate. Together, we reflect on identity, wellness, reinvention, and the inner shifts that occur when pushing harder is no longer the answer.
This is a conversation for leaders who are carrying responsibility with strength and curiosity, and who are ready to relate to their leadership and their lives with greater intention.

Listeners walk away with:
-A new lens for navigating leadership identity during seasons of constant change

-Insight into how to redesign how they lead without abandoning what they have built

-A steadier framework for sustaining performance, clarity, and self-trust over time
