Season 4 Ep 4: Andréa Michel on Telling the Truth to Yourself

Author: Lisa Kuzman February 4, 2021 Duration: 43:37

"Energy does not lie."

So says my guest this week, Andréa Michel. Among many other things, Andréa is an intuitive transformational coach, certified life coach, and certified NLP practitioner. In her work, she helps high performers heal while discovering their purpose and pursuing their passion — so that they can create more happiness, make more money, and live an abundant life. (who doesn't want that??)

As always when I chat with my fellow coaches, this conversation with Andréa goes both wide and deep. We cover...

  • How her running journey went from punishment to celebration
  • Healing from trauma as multidimensional beings
  • Being safe and gentle with yourself (and how that will resonate with others)
  • How leaders can keep their cups full to the brim
  • and so, so much more!

I just know you're going to love all the passion and wisdom that Andréa has to share, so pop in those earbuds and listen to what she has to say!

As always, you can find me at lisakuzman.com and book a call if you'd like to chat. See you next week!

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behind closed doors, and practical ideas for cultivating your own unique leadership identity without conforming to outdated standards.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.
