Description

In this episode of LEAP Listens, Sara and Roger speak with Deon Pillay, an award-winning marketing leader and long-time diversity advocate, about what happens when success stops feeling meaningful. Dion shares why he left a secure corporate role to start a coaching practice in response to a deeper sense of misalignment.

He walks through the mindset shift that made change possible, the questions that helped him act, and a simple framework for building a plan that balances purpose with reality. From finances, boundaries and values-led work, it’s an honest look at what it takes to change direction, and how integrity can become a habit, not just a principle.
