282: How to Leave a Leadership Legacy
mardi 22 avril 2025 • Duration 34:16
In this solo episode, Erin is coming in hot with a message that’s been on her mind for a while—one that’s part pep talk, part practical how-to: how to leave a real leadership legacy (and no, it’s not about working yourself to death or following every rule in the book).
From the awkwardness of admitting she left a legacy… to the specific things she did (and wishes she had done), this episode is packed with straight talk, strategic insight, and stories you’ll carry with you.
You’ll hear:
1.) Why Erin believes your legacy isn’t in the numbers—it’s in your people
2.) A behind-the-scenes look at the rule-breaking that actually paid off (even if it got her a slap on the wrist)
3.) The one thing most leaders forget to do—but makes all the difference
Erin’s 3-point checklist to make sure you’re building a legacy you can be proud of. No fluff. No fake humility. Just the truth about what works—and what matters.

181: Tackling Tough Conversations with Paru Radia
mardi 20 décembre 2022 • Duration 37:24
Yup, you heard that right.
From delivering bad news to confronting their teams, it can be hard for even the most seasoned professionals to work up the courage to face a difficult dialogue.
Luckily for us, Paru Radia, C-Suite Whisperer, execution Ninja, speaker and author is here to give us tips on how to navigate those rocky waters.
If you ask Paru’s clients what sets her apart, they are likely to respond that not only does she get it, she gets to the root of the problem quickly and provides sound guidance, based on real world experience.
One of the things we love most about Paru though is that her approach isn’t formulaic. She instead focuses on who her client is and what their actual needs are allowing them take control of their businesses, careers, and lives, while staying true to who they are.
So, if you struggle with finding the right words for those tricky conversations, this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.

“It's really interesting the opportunities that you can get when you show up as yourself, rather than having to feel like you always have to be what society tells you to be.”
“The perception is that you have to have a suit and a tie and be well-kept and no beards and no tattoos and all of these things. And that's not me.”
“We're more than our jobs. We're more than our titles. We're more than the organization that we represent. We're more than that, and I want to show that.”
“Connect with people, connect with their content, comment on their stuff genuinely, intentionally, and purposefully.”
“Even if that person doesn't get that job or even if that person isn't right for that job, that's a connection that you can make for the future, for not only yourself, but for them too.”
“Let them show you who they are so you can see who's working for your company and what value they bring other than the skillset and the qualifications laid out in a job description.”
