Shannon Watts on Neurodivergent Leadership and Burning It All Down

You can be an accomplished leader and still be terrified of what people think of you. Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action and author of Fired Up, knows what it takes to lead through fear, criticism, and self-doubt. In this episode, I talk with Shannon about how she built a movement with millions of supporters while navigating ADHD, anxiety, and a fear of public speaking, and what she learned about the personal cost of being a passionate leader. We explore how to stop letting other people's opinions dictate your decisions, recognize when your ambition is leading to burnout, and find the courage to pursue what you actually want instead of what you think you should want. Shannon also shares powerful lessons on letting go of control, knowing when it's time to move on, and building something that can thrive without you.

Imagine going through life without constantly worrying about things outside your control. Sounds pretty great, right? Veteran journalist and The Gist host Mike Pesca says his unusually high levels of anandamide, sometimes called the "bliss molecule," give him exactly that experience.

Mike joins me to explore the surprising downsides of not feeling much anxiety, how his professional strengths contributed to a painful career upheaval, and what it really takes to reinvent yourself as an entrepreneur in midlife. We also get candid about the pressure to become your own brand, the changing economics of podcasting, and how to protect the work you love when the rules of your industry keep changing.
