In this episode of You Did That!, I welcome Julianne Guinasso and Poonam Natha of Level Up Leaders, a leadership development and employee management company created by therapists, for therapists. In 2014, Poonam and Julianne became office neighbors and quickly bonded over the idea that taking care of therapists would provide the clinical outcomes their bosses and communities craved. As fellow LMFT's, they believe that, more than any other factor, relationships at work predict employee performance. Mastering relational leadership through cultivating a culture of TRUST is what combats turnover, overwhelm, and disengagement.

Nurturance, growth, and integrity are the driving forces in Poonam's way of being. Poonam helps you navigate the path to your success as a leader and the health of your practice or organization by prioritizing the working relationship.

Julianne's leading values are courage, curiosity, and service. She knows that by focusing on the energetics of relational trust in the workplace and by leading with emotional fluency, your employees can provide the highest clinical care.
