The Career Edge - by Brize
Welcome to The Career Edge — the podcast for professionals who are ready to cultivate the human skills that define a career. In a world where technology is a given, how we think, decide, and connect is what sets us apart.
Hosted by Leslie Ferry, founder of Brize and the architect behind Zandra, this show pulls back the curtain on the unspoken shifts that truly impact your trajectory. We move beyond generic advice to empower you with the insights required to navigate the modern workplace with agency and influence.
You’ll discover the "hidden gems" of how work actually works — the unspoken operating motions that others often miss. From there, we explore the uniquely human elements that allow you to capitalize on those insights, turning self-awareness and strategic reasoning into a more empowered and fulfilling career.
Each episode is designed to help you sharpen the skills AI cannot replace:
- Self-Awareness & Others-Awareness
- Strategic Reasoning
- Clear Communication & Trust
- Collaboration & Connection
If you are ready to start taking intentional ownership of your growth, you’ve found your edge.

A Pain Finder Tool For Improving Individual & Whole Organization Productivity
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Talking about pain and healing in the workplace may seem out-of-place. But that is the point, to shift our thinking about how we think about our pain (stress, anxiety, hurt) at work to clarify how we can address and manage it.
In this episode, Dani Doucette, Modern Healing Artist at Healeology, joins Leslie to talk about pain and healing in the workplace. Dani shares his views on this unconventional but highly effective approach to work.
The evolution of how we show up for work has transitioned from showing no emotions to the opportunity to bring our whole selves. When we do, we demonstrate vulnerability, which is positive. But it also brings the chance of feeling hurt, aggrieved, or harmed.
In this episode, you’ll hear how healing, pain, and forgiveness lead to greater individual and organizational productivity. And with that higher quality output comes lower work-related stress and anxiety.
What you’ll hear:
- How to categorize pain (stress, anxiety, hurt, etc.)
- How to identify the true source of pain
- How to correct misunderstandings
