Season 4 Ep 11: (Almost) Everything You Need to Know About READY!

Season 4 Ep 11: (Almost) Everything You Need to Know About READY!

Author: Lisa Kuzman March 1, 2021 Duration: 18:17

It's officially March, and you know what that means.
Spring is coming to the northern hemisphere.
It's my birthday month (woo!).
Aaaaand.... it's almost time to kick off my next cohort of READY!, my grief, loss, and trauma sensitive certification program for coaches and other service professionals.

I'm sure you already know how jazzed I am about this, since I've been talking a lot about READY! on the podcast this season. But today I wanted to go into a little more detail about:

  • the lightbulb moment when I realized the need for this program
  • how I developed the program — and created some changes
  • what you might need to know if you're interested

Whether you're listening to this the day it airs, or a few months down the road, you can always learn more over at https://lisakuzman.com and book a call if you wanna chat! The READY! application form is here: https://forms.gle/tUBbJVU5etbvDCLw5

And if you're in search of community, you're officially invited to join my trauma-sensitive Facebook group for coaches and leaders: https://www.facebook.com/groups/764082764458292/


There's a quiet shift happening in how we think about authority and influence, and New Wave Leadership Podcast is right at the heart of it. Host Lisa Kuzman believes traditional, top-down leadership models have run their course, proving ineffective for today's complex world. Instead, this movement champions a much broader, more inclusive vision. Each episode digs into the real, often unspoken challenges that come with stepping into a role of influence, whether you're in a corner office, a community group, or simply leading your own life. The conversations here actively work to expand our definition of who gets to be a leader, arguing passionately for the necessity of diverse identities, perspectives, and lived experiences at the helm. You'll hear frank discussions about authenticity, the personal hurdles leaders navigate behind closed doors, and practical ideas for cultivating your own unique leadership identity without conforming to outdated standards. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a necessary dialogue-one that moves beyond theory to explore what it genuinely means to show up and make an impact on your own terms.
