In this episode, Wendy sits down with Moe Carrick—consultant, coach, speaker, and best-selling author—for a rich and resonant conversation about leadership, emotional intelligence, and the power of connection in the workplace. Together, they unpack the very real consequences of disconnection, particularly among men in leadership roles, and how the suppression of emotion has shaped our workplaces for generations. Moe brings insight from her decades of experience working with C-suite executives, highlighting why connection isn't a nice-to-have—it's a non-negotiable for building thriving teams and a healthy, sustainable workplace culture. They explore how women are impacted by men's well-being, what organizations can learn post-2020 about the value of investing in people, and why we need to stop relying on heroism in broken systems. Whether you're leading a team or looking to transform your relationship with work, this conversation offers game-changing insights on creating workplaces where everyone can truly thrive.
