Season 4 Ep 19: Safely Holding Space for Self-Discovery in Your Business

Season 4 Ep 19: Safely Holding Space for Self-Discovery in Your Business

Author: Lisa Kuzman March 29, 2021 Duration: 15:55

Can you believe we're almost ready to wrap up season 4?! I always like to do a little bit of reflection at the end of a podcast season, and this one is no different.

This time around, I've been inspired by a conversation with a lovely friend. She reached out to me and said, "Your business is BOOMING, what's different? What did you do?!"

Great question, right? So that's what I want to share with all of you on this episode. Because, spoiler alert: I didn't do all the things people taught me to do.
I did me.

Serving it HOT will be back with season 5 sometime in May, but in the meantime you can always find me over at lisakuzman.com, and book a call if you'd like to chat. I'd also love for you to join us in my Trauma-Sensitive Leadership Facebook group where the full video of these episodes are hosted: 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behind closed doors, and practical ideas for cultivating your own unique leadership identity without conforming to outdated standards.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.
