What if the next chapter of your life is not a detour, but an invitation? In this episode of the Leading Visionaries, host Anjel B. Hartwell sits down with Julie Delucca-Collins, business strategist, TEDx speaker, award-winning author, founder of Go Confidently Services, and host of the Casa de Confidence podcast.

Julie shares how being laid off during the pandemic became the doorway into entrepreneurship, podcasting, authorship, and deeper purpose.

How vision can guide the next chapter even when the full picture is not clear.

Why confidence often comes from showing up before you feel ready.

What is the difference between vision and goals in business?

Vision is the bigger picture of what you want your life and business to become, while goals are the smaller steps that help bring that vision into reality. A strong vision creates direction and clarity for decision-making.

What are simple self-leadership habits that help business owners avoid burnout?

Simple self-leadership habits include creating healthy routines, prioritizing rest, moving your body regularly, setting boundaries, and building intentional margin into your schedule to support long-term success.

How do you know when it is time to start a new chapter in life or business?

Often, there are signs of restlessness, misalignment, or a feeling that you are meant for more. Major transitions, setbacks, or unexpected changes can become opportunities to pursue a more aligned path.

What if the reason you feel tired, overwhelmed, or older than you should has nothing to do with your age and everything to do with how you’re living? In this episode of the Leading Visionaries, host Anjel B. Hartwell sits down with Dr. Kavin Mistry, board-certified neuroradiologist, bestselling author of Primal Health Design, and creator of The Primal Reset Program. Drawing from over 25 years in medicine, neuroscience, and ancestral health, he breaks down how misalignment with your natural design is impacting your energy, clarity, and long-term health.

From redefining what it means to be healthy to understanding the human qualities that technology can never replace, this episode offers a grounded, practical approach to living with more intention, presence, and vitality.

How biological age can accelerate faster than chronological age and what causes that disconnect.

What it means to live in alignment with your primal design.

Why most health optimization strategies fail without foundational alignment.

What is biological age and how is it different from chronological age?

Do I need expensive tools or biohacks to improve my health?

No. The foundation of better health comes from aligning with simple, natural principles rather than relying on expensive or trendy solutions.

How can I start improving my health without feeling overwhelmed?

Start with your daily routine. Focusing on how you begin and end your day creates structure that positively impacts everything in between.

What if the biggest leadership mistake isn’t doing too little but trying to do too much alone? In this episode of the Leading Visionaries, host Anjel B. Hartwell sits down with Daria Rudnik, former Chief People Officer and ex-Deloitte professional, who shares a powerful shift in modern leadership. Drawing from her global executive experience and transition from corporate leadership to entrepreneurship, Daria breaks down what it really takes to lead in uncertainty, reduce overwhelm, and create teams that thrive without constant direction.

This conversation is a must-listen for leaders who feel stretched, responsible for everything, and unsure how to keep their teams engaged in a rapidly changing world.

What it means to uncover a clear vision and why clarity is the key to execution.

What causes employee disengagement and how leaders unintentionally contribute to it.

Why clarity remains one of the biggest challenges even for experienced leaders.

How can leaders reduce overwhelm in fast-growing companies?

Leaders can reduce overwhelm by shifting from doing everything themselves to trusting their teams, involving them in decision-making, and creating systems that allow shared responsibility.

Why do so many employees become disengaged at work?

Most employees start motivated, but become disengaged due to lack of autonomy, poor communication, and leadership styles that limit their ability to contribute meaningfully.

How do you know when to stop pursuing an idea or strategy?

You evaluate whether the effort supports your larger vision, whether you are still learning from it, and whether it continues to energize you. If those elements are missing, it may be time to pivot.
