Corporate Christie
I blew up my life so I could finally live it.
I was stuck. Burnt out. People-pleasing. Over-functioning. Under-acknowledged. So I stopped everything. I walked away from the job, the marriage, the version of me that kept everyone else comfortable.
Now I’m here—still healing, still leading, and telling the truth about what it really takes to get free. This show isn’t about surface-level hacks. It’s about the big work: healing your patterns, finding your voice, and choosing yourself—again and again—until your life finally feels like it’s yours.
You’re not broken. You’re at the edge of something real. And this show will help you come home to yourself—because this is your life, and you deserve to feel proud on your deathbed.

#41 - Common Mistakes Managers Make (And How to Fix Them) ft. Katie Ceccarini
Bad managers = bad culture. It’s science. Okay, it’s Gallup, but still. In this episode, I sit down with manager whisperer Katie Ceccarini to talk about why most engagement surveys fail, how managers make or break company culture, and why training your leaders is the best investment you can make.
Plus, we cover how to get execs to actually care about leadership development (hint: it involves money). If you’ve ever had a manager so bad it felt personal, you need this episode.
Key Themes:
- Why bad managers are ruining your culture
- How to train managers to lead, not micromanage
- The real reason engagement surveys don’t work
- How to make execs care about leadership training
- Why HR can’t fix engagement without manager buy-in
