Description

Ever feel stuck in a "player coach" role where you're expected to lead your team while also juggling your own project load? They said it was only temporary, right? 



 You're not alone.



In this episode, I talk with my friend, Jamie McSwain, and she gets real about the challenges female leaders face when they're not fully empowered in their roles. She shares her journey from feeling overwhelmed and unsupported to finding her voice by leveraging a leadership example from someone who actually knew how to develop leaders.



What You'll Learn:



  • How to lead effectively when you lack formal authority
  • Ways to protect your wellbeing while navigating workplace politics
  • The mindset shifts that helped Jamie move from burnout to breakthrough


Whether you're struggling with a difficult boss, feeling overwhelmed by competing demands, or wondering how to step into your leadership power, this conversation offers practical strategies you can use right away.
