What Happens When You Drop the ‘Strong Woman’ Act? The Real Key to Influence
Vulnerability and leadership—can they coexist? Absolutely. But for women in leadership, especially Black women, embracing vulnerability can feel like a challenge rather than a strength. In this powerful episode I’m joined by Stacy-Ann Buchanan, a TEDx speaker, mental health advocate, and filmmaker, to uncover why confident vulnerability is a leadership superpower—not a weakness.
Together, they explore how self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and mindset shifts allow women leaders to break free from societal expectations, lead with authenticity, and create harmonious lives without sacrificing their impact. Stacy-Ann also shares her personal journey of unlearning the “strong Black woman” narrative, prioritizing rest and peace, and choosing legacy leadership over burnout.
If you’ve ever felt pressure to “have it all together” while silently carrying the weight of leadership, this conversation will shift your perspective and empower you to lead with strength, honesty, and transformative leadership.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✔️ Why confident vulnerability is the key to authentic leadership.
✔️ The role of emotional intelligence and self-awareness in decision-making.
✔️ How rest and a harmonious life are critical for long-term success.
✔️ The mindset shift from “booked and busy” to paid and peaceful—why choosing peace over stress money is the ultimate power move.
