You’re the one everyone leans on - but when you need support, you’re left holding your own weight. In this episode, I’ll show you how to step into the CEO role of your life and intentionally build your own personal board of directors - even if you’re the strong one no one ever checks in on. We’ll walk through the five key roles every high-performing woman needs in her support system - and how to fill those roles, even when it feels like you have to do everything yourself. Whether you’re a working mom, a leader in a male-dominated space, or just someone who’s always been the “go-to” for everyone else, this episode will help you reimagine community and reclaim your energy. Because even the strongest leaders need strong teams. Let’s start with yours.
