Heal Your Trauma Find Your Voice
Are you a high-achieving leader, tired of the self-doubt, sleepless nights, and the knot in your stomach before every difficult conversation?
No matter how accomplished you are, does that inner critic still whisper, “You’re not doing enough”?
I’ve been there, and I can’t wait to share a new way forward: one where you trust yourself fully, tap into your unique wisdom, and lead difficult conversations with both empathy and authority.
Welcome to Heal Your Trauma Find Your Voice, a podcast for high-achieving, emotionally intelligent leaders who want to drop the pressure to be perfect and lead with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
I’m your host, Dr. Annie Campanile, trauma-informed executive coach, PhD, MBA, and former healthcare leader with 25+ years of experience helping executives navigate high-stakes leadership without losing themselves.
In each episode, I share real stories, evidence-based tools, and practical insights to help you:

- Lead with calm, grounded executive presence
- Navigate conflict and repair relationships with confidence
Because when you lead from your full, wise self—free from fear and self-doubt—you become the kind of leader others respect, trust, and want to follow - the kind you always hoped you could be.
Together, we’ll explore simple yet powerful, actionable steps you can take to resolve fight - flight - freeze - fawn survival response, communicate with confidence, and create relationships that truly uplift you - at work, at home, and in every aspect of your life.

When Boundaries Are Too Open at Work: How to Respond to Gossip and Micromanagement Without Breaking Trust
You’re spending more time mediating team drama than leading your team—and it’s exhausting. One person is constantly checking up on their coworkers, calling out unfinished tasks, and stressing over work that’s not even theirs. Meanwhile, the rest of your team is walking on eggshells to avoid the next emotional outburst.
If you’ve ever had a team member who means well but ends up creating tension, today’s episode is for you.
I’m diving into what’s really behind this behavior (hint: it’s not just about control), and I’ll walk you through a real-life example of how one of my clients used a simple, 3-step strategy called the Connection Bridge to reset expectations and calm the chaos—without shaming anyone or triggering more drama.
You’ll learn:
- What “open boundaries” look like in the workplace
- Why well-meaning employees sometimes take on too much
- How to set clear, kind boundaries that protect your team’s culture
- What to say exactly when someone’s behavior is crossing the line
If you’re tired of team members policing each other and just want everyone to do their job without the drama, this episode will show you how to lead with both strength and sensitivity.
