In this episode of Leadership Unfiltered, I sit down with coach and mentor Dana Gengle, creator of the Four Walls Freed™ Framework and co-host of the Soul-Led Business Summit, for a powerful conversation about what it really means to lead from the soul.

We explore the difference between performance-driven leadership and authentic, soul-led leadership—and how chasing titles and results can leave even successful leaders feeling empty. Dana shares her own journey from corporate and network marketing leadership into a deeper calling of service, self-compassion, and alignment with her true purpose. Together, we talk about how loving yourself fully is the foundation of leading others well, and how your greatest challenges often hold the keys to your most powerful gifts. This conversation is a reminder that leadership isn't about perfection or performance—it's about presence, purpose, and the courage to show up as your whole self.

If you're ready to release old expectations and lead from a place of truth and alignment, this episode will speak straight to your soul.

✨ Real leaders. Real talk. Real growth.

Emerging leaders are often handed a title - and a long list of unspoken expectations.

In this episode of Leadership Unfiltered, I sit down with fellow coach Anny Liao to unpack the misguided expectations that organizations place on new leaders, and the ones new leaders place on themselves. We explore why these assumptions set leaders up for overwhelm, how to reset expectations with clarity, and what it really takes to grow into leadership with confidence.
