In this episode, we sit down with Admiral Mike Rogers, former Director of the National Security Agency (NSA) and Commander of U.S. Cyber Command, for a rare, wide-ranging conversation on how the world is changing, and what actually matters now.Mike shares what he learned from nearly four decades at the highest levels of military, intelligence, and government leadership, including working under both President Obama and President Trump. But this isn’t just a conversation about power or national security. We also talk about love, relationships, and the personal tradeoffs that come with ambition: why success without meaning is empty, how leaders should think about partnership and family, and what really lasts when titles, money, and influence fade.This episode is about leadership in every sense of the word: - What leadership looks like when the stakes are highest- How global cyber risk and AI affect everyday people- Why integrity is the non-negotiable trait of great leaders- How to communicate effectively with radically different decision-makers- National security vs. privacy — why it’s not a binary choice- What the private sector and government misunderstand about each other- Why love, not power or money, is the ultimate long-term investment🐯👯‍♀️ We’re the Tiger Sisters — Your Wall Street & Silicon Valley big sistersDecoding Money • Power • Love✨ New episodes every Monday | Shorts all week ✨💌 Want to partner with us?Sponsorships: ⁠partnerships@tigersisters.co⁠Timestamps:1:16 Is the NSA listening to our conversation?1:38 You need integrity as the foundation3:38 He became a 4-star military admiral 6:18 How to make decisions when there's no "right" answer?7:25 Differences in working with President Obama vs. Trump14:09 Are politics & business just pre-orchestrated?17:58 Which is more important?

Most people think career success is ALL about working harder. It’s not. It’s also about how you’re perceived, how you communicate, and whether the right people see your value. And no one is taught these rules.In this remix episode of Tiger Sisters with Lorraine K. Lee and Leah Wyar, we bring together two of our most impactful conversations to break down the invisible dynamics that determine who gets promoted, trusted, and listened to at work.Executive presence expert Lorraine K. Lee explains how body language, communication, and visibility quietly shape credibility. Media and Entertainment Leader Leah pulls back the curtain on what actually happens inside organizations — the politics, the pressure of climbing, and the emotional labor no one prepares you for. This episode is for anyone who’s doing great work but feels overlooked, underestimated, or stuck.We share:✅ Why hard work alone doesn’t lead to promotion✅ How perception quietly determines influence and opportunity✅ The body language and communication habits that signal leadership✅ Why visibility compounds — and how to build it intentionally✅ How to navigate loyalty, boundaries, and self-advocacy without burning bridges✅ What executive presence really means in real life and on ZoomThis isn’t about becoming louder or more aggressive. It’s about learning the unspoken rules so you can move with clarity and confidence — on your own terms.🐯👯‍♀️ We’re the Tiger Sisters — your Wall Street & Silicon Valley big sisters.Decoding Money • Power • Love✨ New episodes every Monday | Shorts all week ✨💌 Want to partner with us?Sponsorships: partnerships@tigersisters.co👀 Newsletterhttps://cherieluo.substack.com/Timestamps:0:58 - End of Year Remix: Lorraine & Leah Interviews02:15 - Perception + Influence = Power02:35 - Welcome Lorraine K.
