In this episode, Lillan Baruch—coach, mentor, and former advertising leader with over 30 years of experience—joins me to unpack the shift from performance to impact. For Lillan, belonging is not a bonus, but the foundation of leadership and resilience.

Together, we explore the trap of tying worth to output, the cost of chasing performance, and how true impact often comes in quiet, steady ways.

Key Takeaways:

• Performance without belonging often leads to burnout.

• Belonging creates the safety to move from proving to impacting.

• Impact can be quiet, steady, and deeply transformative.

• Leadership is not about metrics—it’s about meaning.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in performance mode or wondered how to create impact that lasts, this episode is a reminder: you already belong. From that place, your impact becomes inevitable.
