Business Blasphemy
Business Blasphemy with Sarah Khan
The leadership podcast for ambitious women done playing by the rules.
Hosted by Sarah Khan — Leadership Strategist, TEDx Speaker, and corporate escapee — Business Blasphemy challenges the hustle culture and toxic norms dominating women’s leadership, ambition, and success — whether in the online, entrepreneurial, or traditional workplace.
Each episode delivers bold truths, strategic insight, and no-fluff advice on what it really takes to grow a business or career without burning out, selling out, or losing yourself in the process.
If you're ready to build sustainable success rooted in identity, integrity, and real power — not performance — this podcast is your permission slip to lead differently. Expect sharp perspective shifts, practical strategy, and the (more than) occasional curse word.
