Season 7 Ep 9: Saying You're Safe is Easy. Being Safe Takes Work!

If you're in the personal development space, I'm willing to bet that client safety is important to you. None of us set out with the intention to activate people's triggers! Unfortunately, even with the best of intentions, it can happen.

Has a client ever told you that they felt uncomfortable or unsafe? How did you respond?

And what about the flip side: have you, as a client, ever had to speak up and advocate for yourself in that situation? 

Speaking up in those moments is NOT easy... and hearing that your clients feel unsafe certainly isn't easy, either. We need to prioritize listening to people, especially when they're brave enough to be vulnerable and bring these things to our attention. So this week, let's dig into what it means to actually BE safe — not just say you are.

I'm so happy that you're here with me. As always, I would absolutely love to hear from you. If you have questions, or a topic you'd like me to cover, or anything else, don't be shy! Just shoot me an email at podcast@lisakuzman.com.

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behind closed doors, and practical ideas for cultivating your own unique leadership identity without conforming to outdated standards.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