Untamed Leader

Untamed Leader is a podcast for loving rebels who are ready to speak, live, and lead from the radiant pulse of their purpose—the wild-hearted ones dedicated to transforming the vibe in the room and igniting meaningful change.

Through heart-to-heart conversations, breakthrough coaching moments, solo reflections, and inspiring stories from the edge of becoming, Untamed Leader explores what it means to lead from the inside out. Host Lauri Smith weaves together three essential leadership threads: vision, creativity, and voice.

Here, leadership is a sacred art.

Intuition guides creation.
Presence shapes communication.
And your voice channels the rhythm already alive in your soul.

Whether you’re already visible—or standing at the edge of visibility—something in you knows:

It’s time to lead untamed.
