Description

Most of us think leadership is about stepping up. But what if real impact starts when you step back?

In this episode, we talk with Emily Hooper, a former physical therapist who now leads community development work in Kenya’s Rift Valley. Emily shares how she moved from “doing the work” to empowering local leaders—and why true transformation happens when we stop trying to lead everything ourselves.

If you’ve ever wondered how to help without creating dependency, this conversation is for you.

Listen now to hear how letting go might be the most powerful leadership move you make.
