GO! Reboot Your Life

Discover how a former finance professional redesigned her life around time, location, and financial freedom, traveling the world with her family, homeschooling her children, and scaling businesses with the support of virtual assistants and AI-powered systems.In this episode, Lisa and Adrienne Green discuss:Shifting definitions of success across career stagesLeaving W‑2 employment for entrepreneurshipTime and energy management using the 20/80 principleLeveraging virtual assistants and AI in modern businessesValues-aligned living, world travel, and homeschoolingKey Takeaways: Success evolves, and it’s essential to periodically reassess whether your work still aligns with your core values of time, location, and financial freedom.Moving from a W‑2 role to entrepreneurship requires embracing full responsibility, “you eat what you hunt,” and being willing to navigate the mental hurdles that come with it.Focusing on the most impactful 20% of your work and delegating the remaining 80% is a key unlock for both business growth and personal energy management.AI is most powerful when it augments skilled human assistants rather than replacing them, enabling more personalized, higher-quality support for clients and customers.Designing a values-based life can create lasting impact by giving parents more time to shape their children’s experiences, learning, and core values through intentional, time-rich parenting.“Spend the money on a virtual assistant before you feel like you need them, because if you're giving them your bottom 80%, you can spend your time on your top 20% and your business will multiply.” - Adrienne GreenAbout Adrienne Green: Adrienne Green is a former finance and corporate professional turned real estate entrepreneur, coach, and systems-focused business builder who helps investors and founders create time, location, and financial freedom through leverage, delegation, and scalable operations. Her journey spans from working in traditional W-2 finance roles to becoming a teacher, then transitioning into real estate investing and entrepreneurship, where she built systems that allowed her to scale income while reducing operational burden. Today, she mentors others on building “hands-off” businesses using virtual assistants, structured systems, and AI-augmented workflows that keep humans at the center of decision-making while improving efficiency. She is also a world traveler and mother who homeschools her children, intentionally designing a values-aligned lifestyle that prioritizes presence, freedom, and family time over conventional career paths. Across her work, speaking, and community involvement, including participation in entrepreneurial masterminds like GoBundance Women, she emphasizes delegation, the 80/20 principle, and building businesses that support both wealth creation and a meaningful, flexible life.Connect with Adrienne Green:Website: https://adriennegreen.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arealgreen/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ARealGreen123/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/arealgreen Time + Freedom Starter Pack: https://letsgo.adriennegreen.com/timefreedomstarter?_gl=1*5oncye*_ga*NTcyODY2NDYzLjE3ODI4Mjg4MDM.*_ga_BQFL0QXCNT*czE3ODI4Mjg4MDIkbzEkZzEkdDE3ODI4Mjg5MTMkajQ3JGwwJGgw Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Francine PobleteAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

AI won’t scale without trust. In this episode, you’ll hear how to move from “protecting” AI to actually proving it in the most highly regulated environments.In this episode, Lisa and Peter Zorn discuss:Shift from “protect AI” to “prove AI”EU AI Act and high-risk use casesAI governance, pilot purgatory, and scalabilityIndependent “enterprise spine” for audit-grade AI workflowsLeadership, health protocols, and the legacy of lifelong learningKey Takeaways: Effective AI governance requires a mindset shift from merely protecting systems to being able to prove how decisions are made, traced, and audited.Organizations stuck in “pilot purgatory” need to move beyond compliance checklists and harness explainability as a driver of innovation and scale.High-risk industries like banking, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and defense must design AI with audit-grade transparency to answer regulators quickly and precisely.Leaders have an obligation to protect their energy and clarity through sleep, movement, resistance training, and personally tailored nutrition strategies.Lifelong learning isn’t optional in an AI-driven world; curiosity, experimentation, and the courage to pivot can fundamentally transform careers and lives.“I always say you cannot scale what you cannot trust, and you cannot trust what you cannot explain. It's as simple as that.” - Peter ZornAbout Peter Zorn: Peter Zorn is the CEO of Parcis, an AI company focused on trust, transparency, and explainability for regulated industries. An accomplished global enterprise leader, he brings deep expertise in business and people transformation, operational excellence, and strategic growth, with a strong record of improving governance, efficiency, and both customer and employee experience. Recognised for his C‑suite impact and compassionate leadership, he blends project execution, process innovation, and organisational resilience with a proven ability to harness AI-powered, data-driven, human-centric solutions to shape modern talent ecosystems and future-ready workforces.With experience living and working in 14 countries, Peter has a strong cross-cultural understanding and a track record of leading diverse international teams. His distinguished background as a corporate executive in banking and management consulting, combined with extensive entrepreneurial experience, gives him a unique lens on strategy, long-term growth, market analysis, and organisational development, now applied to building audit-grade, scalable AI infrastructures for high-risk sectors such as finance and healthcare.Connect with Peter Zorn:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterzorn/ Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Francine PobleteAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

As AI races ahead, trust is collapsing, and workers are disengaging. This conversation dives into a new model of leadership, real-world use cases, and why starting with problems, not technology, is the key to unlocking AI’s potential.In this episode, Lisa and Julia Stamm discuss:Global power dynamics and narratives around AI (East vs. West, race to AGI)Fear, job loss, and collapsing trust in AI and institutionsResponsible AI and women-led, problem-first innovationNew leadership models: uncertainty, trust, and bottom-up transformationConcrete AI use cases in healthcare, safety, climate, and everyday lifeKey Takeaways: You can be excited about AI’s potential and still have a responsibility to question how it is built, governed, and deployed.Fear-driven narratives and “race” rhetoric around AI erode trust, especially when people see job losses but not tangible benefits in their own lives.The most promising AI solutions start from real, deeply understood problems and communities, not from the technology itself.Successful AI transformation inside organizations depends far more on trust, change management, and inclusive leadership than on the tools alone.Embracing uncertainty, inviting critical questions, and involving diverse expertise are essential if AI is to improve people’s lives instead of merely boosting efficiency.“You can love technology and AI, and you should still ask questions.” - Julia StammAbout Julia Stamm: Dr. Julia Stamm is a futurist, entrepreneur, and global advocate for responsible AI innovation. After leaving the European Commission a decade ago, she set out to ensure that technology and innovation serve humanity by aligning progress with human values and empowering people to shape the future, not simply react to it. Her career has spanned academia, policymaking in Brussels, and venture-building, giving her a unique perspective on how culture, policy, and technology intersect. In 2024, Julia founded She Shapes AI, a global movement now active in more than 60 countries that equips leaders with strategic AI fluency, publishes thought leadership, and sparks critical conversations about how technology is built, why it matters, and who gets to shape it.Editor’s Note: SDGs refer to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.Connect with Julia Stamm:Website: https://www.sheshapes.ai/ Coming Soon: https://juliastamm.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-julia-stamm/ Substack: https://juliastamm.substack.com/ Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Francine PobleteAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

About Justin Davis: Justin Davis is a four-time startup founder and AI pioneer with over 22 years in tech. He has helped build and scale infrastructure used by billions of devices worldwide, including early ad tech platforms and AI-powered trust and safety systems that protect online communities. A former executive at companies acquired by Microsoft and Salesforce, Justin has led organizations through rapid growth, cultural transformation, and meaningful exits.After stepping away from executive life in 2024, Justin embarked on a year-long sabbatical focused on healing, creative expression, and redefining success. Today, he is the co-founder of Eleven Dunbar, a curated community built around deep connection, creativity, and intentional growth. His work centers on helping leaders move from burnout and survival into freedom, peace, joy, and authentic community.In this episode, Lisa and Justin Davis discuss:Justin’s journey from early internet sales at Cisco to building AI systems that scaled to billions of usersThe power of mission, vision, and values in creating thriving company culturesBurnout, grief, and the identity crisis that followed stepping down as CEOThe role of creative expression, nature, and stillness in rediscovering purposePlant medicine, integration work, and confronting self-limiting belief systemsKey Takeaways: Culture is not perks — it’s how people feel and how decisions are made when leadership isn’t in the room. Justin’s companies scaled globally because trust, growth, collaboration, and passion were embedded from day one and reinforced consistently.Burnout often hides behind achievement. Even while leading high-performing AI companies, Justin was privately navigating grief, anxiety, and exhaustion — a reminder that external success does not guarantee internal alignment.Creative expression and play are not luxuries; they are neurological and emotional necessities. Activities that move us out of our heads and into our bodies can rewire stress patterns and reconnect us to our authentic selves.Self-limiting beliefs formed in childhood quietly shape adult ambition and identity. Confronting and releasing those internal narratives can unlock profound freedom and emotional clarity.Integration is the real work of transformation. Whether through plant medicine, therapy, or major life shifts, lasting change comes from building daily rituals, habits, and routines that reinforce new awareness.“The space by which you can expand internally, the spirit, the heart, the mind, is infinite.” - Justin DavisConnect with Justin Davis:Website: https://www.elevendunbar.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/justindavis/ Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 DaysShow notes by Podcastologist: Francine PobleteAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

About Yamarie Negron: Yamarie Negron is a trauma-informed transition and transformation coach who specializes in identity-level healing. After beginning her career in communications and serving as a director of content marketing at a startup, Yamarie felt called back to her first passion—understanding human behavior and psychology. Her own experience navigating divorce, health challenges, and deep personal transformation led her to develop a unique framework called the Transformation Tree, which integrates biology, identity, nervous system regulation, and behavior change. Today, she helps high-functioning women move from survival strategies to self-led living, expanding their capacity for resilience, relational health, and aligned success.In this episode, Lisa and Yamarie Negron discuss:Yamarie’s pivot from corporate marketing to trauma-informed coachingThe difference between behavior change and identity-level transformationAwareness, acceptance, and alignment as non-linear phases of healingBoundaries, relational health, and expanding nervous system resilienceRedefining success beyond achievement and external validationKey Takeaways: Healing is not a destination; it is a continuous journey back to wholeness. As Yamarie explains, transformation unfolds through ongoing awareness, acceptance, and alignment, not a single breakthrough moment.Many high achievers focus on changing behaviors without addressing the deeper identity and biological roots that fuel them. Lasting transformation requires working with the nervous system, not against it.Survival strategies like fixing, forcing, or operating from fear, obligation, guilt, and shame may have once kept us safe. But over time, they quietly erode capacity and limit relational and personal growth.Capacity is not just about time management. It’s about nervous system regulation, boundaries, and self-honoring choices. Expanding capacity requires both internal awareness and practical skill-building.True success evolves. For Yamarie, success is no longer defined by achievement or income alone, but by self-preservation, health, alignment, and honoring her well-being along the path. “That's what acceptance is really about, is acknowledging the things that you can and cannot influence, impact, and change.” - Yamarie NegronConnect with Yamarie Negron:Website: https://www.yamarienegron.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yamarienegron/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/namastenslay/ Transformation Tree Framework: Why Doing The Inner Work Isn't Changing Results - https://www.yamarienegron.com/why-inner-work-isnt-working-transformation-tree Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 DaysShow notes by Podcastologist: Francine PobleteAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

About Sarah Porter: Sarah Porter is the CEO and founder of Boardwalk Health, an AI-powered healthcare software company focused on improving outcomes for patients with complex and chronic conditions. With nearly a decade of experience building early-stage startups across edtech and HR tech, Sarah’s entrepreneurial path took a deeply personal turn after she was diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Frustrated by a healthcare system that often overlooks and misunderstands complex cases, she founded Boardwalk Health to bridge the gap between patients and providers by reducing prep time, improving continuity of care, and empowering physicians with actionable insights. Sarah is a passionate advocate for patient-centered innovation and a visible leader redefining what compassionate, effective healthcare can look like.In this episode, Lisa and Sarah Porter discuss:Sarah’s journey from startup operator to founder after being diagnosed with POTSThe systemic gaps in healthcare for patients with chronic and complex conditionsHow Boardwalk Health uses AI to reduce provider prep time and improve patient outcomesManaging energy, leadership, and entrepreneurship while living with a chronic illnessRedefining success, legacy, and impact in healthcare innovationKey Takeaways: Personal pain can become a powerful catalyst for systemic change when paired with purpose and execution. Sarah’s experience navigating chronic illness revealed deep flaws in healthcare and inspired her to build a solution from the inside out.Chronic illness forces entrepreneurs to think differently about energy, sustainability, and leadership. Success often depends not on doing more, but on building safeguards, support systems, and intentional boundaries.AI can enhance, not replace, healthcare providers when designed to meet them within existing workflows. By reducing prep time and clarifying patient data, providers can focus on what matters most: care and connection.Early hiring decisions shape the trajectory of a startup more than founders often realize. Clear documentation, product vision, and role alignment are essential, especially for non-technical founders.True success goes beyond growth metrics and exits. For Sarah, impact is measured by lives improved, patients heard, and a healthcare system made more humane for future generations. “Success is saying I found this huge thing that's broken in this big system, and I'm going to fix it, and it's going to impact all of these lives.” - Sarah PorterConnect with Sarah Porter:Website: https://mymeddefend.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahatboardwalk/ Podcast: The Capital Maze Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Francine PobleteAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

About Cindy DiTiberio: Cindy DiTiberio is an author, ghostwriter, and creator of The Mother Lode on Substack, a candid community where she writes about motherhood, divorce, and rediscovering identity in midlife. After nearly a decade of ghostwriting for others, Cindy began sharing her own story during the pandemic, sparking honest conversations about emotional labor, gender roles, and personal reinvention. Her forthcoming book explores how she lost and reclaimed herself through marriage, divorce, and self-discovery. Passionate about storytelling, Cindy helps others share their truths and believes stories connect us and make us feel less alone.In this episode, Lisa and Cindy DiTiberio discuss:How the pandemic inspired Cindy’s Substack: The Mother LodeMotherhood, marriage, and emotional overload during lockdownWhen therapy helps and when it harms in struggling relationshipsRecognizing covert narcissism and emotional abuseHealing, dating, and rediscovering joy in midlifeKey Takeaways: The pandemic exposed many hidden inequalities in family systems and led to what Cindy calls “pandemic divorcees.”Sometimes, therapy reinforces unhealthy dynamics if a partner is not open to change or accountability.Emotional abuse and narcissism can be difficult to recognize until long after a relationship ends.Healing after divorce requires deep self-awareness, boundary-setting, and the courage to choose yourself.Rediscovering desire and joy in midlife through dating, storytelling, or self-expression is a powerful form of rebirth.Life after divorce is full of possibilities; reinvention is not failure but evolution. “We can reinvent ourselves over and over and over again. Like, literally, I think that's what we're here to do, is just evolve and shed skins that that we've outgrown and move on to the next version of us.” - Cindy DiTiberioConnect with Cindy DiTiberio:Website: https://cindyditiberio.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cynthia-ditiberio-b6141b5/ Twitter: https://x.com/CindyDT Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cindy.ditiberio Substack: https://substack.com/@cindyditiberio & https://cindyditiberio.substack.com/  Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Francine PobleteAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

About Blake Kuhre: Blake Kuhre is the Co-Founder of LAPS, an award-winning virtual influencer and digital double agency with offices in Los Angeles, Paris, and Seoul. A Texas native and journalism graduate from the University of Missouri, Blake began his career at The Walt Disney Company, where he spent a decade as an Executive Producer and Host on Radio Disney, reaching over 22 million Gen Z and Millennial listeners nationwide. After Disney, he transitioned into digital strategy, shaping growth at innovative startups across streaming and social platforms, including Hulu, Newzulu, LiveMe, Match, and The Meet Group. Today, Blake leads LAPS in redefining connection through creativity, technology, and human storytelling.In this episode, Lisa and Blake discuss:How online dating evolved and shifted after the pandemicThe impact of AI, virtual influencers, and fake profiles on trust and safetyHow loneliness fuels engagement on dating and social appsThe struggle for authenticity, chemistry, and real-world connectionThe thin line between innovation, addiction, and emotional fulfillmentKey Takeaways: The pandemic accelerated digital intimacy, but it also reignited people’s longing for genuine, in-person experiences. While virtual dating offered convenience, it reminded many that real chemistry still happens face-to-face.Dating apps continue to evolve, yet the industry still grapples with maintaining a balance between engagement, safety, and authenticity. As features expand, user trust remains the hardest metric to scale.Artificial intelligence brings both promise and peril. It enhances profiles and personalizes experiences, yet also fuels the rise of fake personas that distort reality and blur the boundaries of truth online.Loneliness sits at the heart of modern connection. It’s the emotional engine driving users to swipe, match, and message—and the same challenge companies are constantly trying to solve.True chemistry and human connection can’t be replicated by technology. Algorithms may predict compatibility, but they can’t replace the energy, intuition, and magic of real human interaction.“Chemistry—that’s the number one thing you can’t fake. I always say chemistry is the most important thing in every relationship, personal or business. You either have it or you don’t. Skills and everything else you can learn, but you either have a really good relationship with someone off the bat, or not.” - Blake KuhreConnect with Blake Kuhre: Website: https://www.laps-inc.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bkuhre/ Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Angelo Paul TagamaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

About Bara Mann: Bara Mann is a transformational life coach, energy healer, speaker, and writer who is passionate about helping people release fears, insecurities, and limiting patterns to live with confidence and joy. After leaving her career as an engineer to follow her healing journey, she trained in Reiki, pendulum healing, and the Emotion Code, blending these practices with coaching for powerful, lasting results. Bara shares her experiences and insights on building confidence, setting boundaries, deepening connections, and finding joy even in challenging circumstances. Her mission is simple yet profound: to create a world where everyone feels they belong, are empowered, and get to thrive truly.In this episode, Lisa and Bara discuss:How overthinkers can reduce self-sabotage to increase joy and productivityThe Positive Intelligence framework and its role in reshaping thought patternsBara’s transition from engineering to transformational coaching and speakingPractical mindfulness techniques to handle overwhelm and unwanted changeRedefining success, legacy, and what it means to live authenticallyKey Takeaways: Self-sabotage is often fueled by recurring thought patterns, but with awareness and deliberate shifts, individuals can move past these habits. This opens the door to greater fulfillment, confidence, and impact in both personal and professional life.The Positive Intelligence framework empowers people to access their “sage” mind—their clearest, most authentic self—rather than staying trapped in the limiting “saboteur” mode. By doing so, they gain clarity, emotional balance, and better decision-making.Mindfulness practices, such as pausing to notice physical sensations, help ground individuals in the present moment. This state of presence creates space for clearer thinking and more intentional actions.Success is no longer defined by titles, salaries, or external recognition. Instead, it’s about cultivating inner peace and joy that lead to a more sustainable and meaningful way of living.No one thrives alone—having trusted coaches, mentors, or supportive friends is essential when navigating change. These relationships provide guidance, perspective, and strength during life’s toughest transitions.“I want people to feel more free, to be their full, authentic self, to bring all of themselves to everywhere they go, and to help give them a path to do that.” - Bara MannConnect with Bara Mann: Website: https://www.baraco.org/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bara-mann/ Email: [email protected] Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Angelo Paul TagamaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

About Robyn White: Robyn White is a certified professional coach, faculty member at the University of Denver, and host of The Boss Yourself First Podcast. She’s the author of The Three Permissions: The Power of Allowing Yourself to Feel, Fail, and Fly on the Path to Success. With a background in psychology and certifications including ICF PCC and RightPath, Robyn empowers people to lead themselves with clarity, compassion, and courage. Her work focuses on self-leadership, emotional agility, and personal agency—equipping individuals to navigate transitions, recover from burnout, and lead with intention. Whether she’s coaching clients, teaching students, or speaking on her podcast, Robyn’s mission is simple: help people build awareness, embrace growth, and take action that creates lasting impact.In this episode, Lisa and Robyn discuss:Robyn’s book, The Three Permissions, and how it empowers self-leadershipWhy emotional literacy and energy alignment are critical to personal successHow to redefine success across life seasons using core valuesNavigating the “sandwich season” of life—supporting both aging parents and grown childrenPractical tools and permission practices for managing failure, burnout, and changeKey Takeaways: Success is fluid. What you once defined as success may no longer serve you—redefining it based on your current values and season of life creates deeper fulfillment.Awareness is where self-leadership begins. By noticing where your energy feels most aligned, you gain clarity on what truly matters and how to move forward with intention.Feelings are not obstacles—they're valuable information. When you develop emotional literacy, you gain the ability to navigate discomfort and stay connected to your growth.Failure is not final. Instead of avoiding it, embracing failure with curiosity and compassion can transform it into one of your greatest teachers.Permission is a catalyst for change. The moment you stop waiting for external validation and start allowing yourself to feel, fail, and fly—that’s when true agency begins, and others feel empowered to do the same.“When you give yourself permission, other people get inspired to give themselves permission. And it's this amazing piece of impact that I think we sometimes forget, because we feel very inward-focused when we're focused on self-leadership, but it actually has a massive outward impact for others.”- Robyn WhiteConnect with Robyn White: Website: https://bossyourselffirst.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robyn-white-pcc-cplc-33892033/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bossyourselffirst/ Robyn’s Book: https://bossyourselffirst.com/three-permissions/ Podcast:  https://bossyourselffirst.com/podcast/ Connect with Lisa Thee:Website: https://lisathee.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisathee/ Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/lisa.thee.polvi Twitter: https://twitter.com/lisa_thee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisatheepolvi/ Lisa’s BOOK: Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days Show notes by Podcastologist: Angelo Paul TagamaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
