About this listen

Lead With Who You Are is a show that explores what it means to harness your most powerful, compelling, and aligned self. Unlike other shows about leadership, we’re on a journey to learn from mentors, experts, and badass people who are transforming the world – and their world – through the simple and radical act of choosing not to hide from who they are, and instead, leverage the wisdom of their true selves as a pathway to action. I'm Dia Bondi, and for the last 20 years as a communications coach and catalyst, I've helped world class leaders, entrepreneurs and social impact innovators inside companies like Salesforce, Dropbox, and Google speak powerfully at the most critical moments of their career and businesses. I’ve learned that when the chips are down – your best bet is to lead with who you are.2022, Lead With Who You Are, Dia Bondi Communications Careers Economics Personal Success Self-Help Success

  • What I learned on my writing retreat
    Dec 6 2023

    Let’s explore the art of storytelling in writing. After heading to her first writing retreat, Dia discovers the concept of Prescriptive Memoir and takes on the challenge of content creation through adopting a scene-focused approach. Dive into the conversation about starting with "One true scene" vs her old “One true sentence” approach. 

    Writing with actual craft isn’t easy and finding your voice in that craft is a slippery fish.  And while this doesn't just apply to the craft of writing, writing is a good way to tease out and forward your own voice- not once, but as a lifelong journey. And we’re up for it because …. it takes a lifetime to sound like yourself. 

    Show Notes:

    • Dia explores the importance of details and resonance in storytelling, encouraging a balance between impact and specificity.
    • Learn about Prescriptive Memoir and how your life experiences can become valuable lessons for others.
    • Dive into Dia's new challenge of creating Litsticles, Lessons, and Longform blogs with a focus on scenes.
    • Understand the transformative power of starting narratives with "One true scene" instead of the traditional "one true sentence."
    • Gain insights into the lifelong journey of finding and sounding like your authentic self.
