The Embodied LeadHer
The Embodied LeadHer is a podcast for women who are ready to lead from presence rather than pressure.
Hosted by Glory Lichon, this podcast explores leadership as a lived, embodied experience—rooted in nervous system regulation, inner stability, and sustainable power. Through honest reflection, grounded conversation, and moments of pause, Glory invites listeners to step out of urgency and performance and return to what’s true.
This is a space for women navigating leadership in business, life, and the world—especially those who feel the pull to slow down, listen inward, and lead without self-abandonment. Rather than offering quick fixes or hustle-driven strategies, each episode creates space for awareness, integration, and conscious leadership that can actually be lived.
Whether you’re moving through uncertainty, redefining success, or simply longing to come back to yourself, this podcast offers orientation—not instruction.
No hustle. No proving. Just presence.
New episodes release weekly.
Listen when you need grounding, clarity, or a reminder of your own inner authority.
The Embodied LeadHer
From Corporate Leadership to Aligned Leadership: Redefining How We Live and Lead (with Maggie Perotin)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This conversation isn’t about building a business the “right” way.
It’s about what happens when what works… no longer feels aligned.
In this episode, I’m joined by Maggie Perotin for a real conversation about her transition from corporate leadership into building a business that actually reflects how she wants to live and lead.
We talk about the moments that don’t always get shared—
the pressure, the burnout, the internal shifts that happen when success stops feeling sustainable…
and what it takes to lead differently.
This is also a meaningful conversation for me personally.
Maggie was part of my early leadership journey—supporting me as I stepped into the CEO role, moved through limiting beliefs, and expanded what I believed was possible in my business and impact.
This isn’t about adding more strategies.
It’s about simplifying, trusting yourself, and creating a version of leadership that supports your life—not just your results.
If you’ve been feeling the tension between what’s working… and what actually feels right, this conversation will land.
In This Episode, We Explore:
- The transition from corporate leadership to aligned, self-led leadership
- What burnout reveals about misalignment and capacity
- Moving through limiting beliefs when stepping into bigger leadership
- Building a business that supports your life—not consumes it
- Why simplicity is a powerful leadership strategy
- The difference between external success and internal alignment
- Self-trust as a daily leadership practice
- Integration vs. “work-life balance”
- Creating sustainable growth without self-abandonment
Key Takeaways
- Success that isn’t aligned will eventually feel unsustainable
- Leadership requires identity expansion—not just strategy
- You can build something that works… and still need to redefine how it feels
- Simplicity creates clarity, consistency, and follow-through
- Self-trust is built through real decisions, not just mindset work
- You don’t have to choose between your business and your life—you can build both in alignment
Notable Moments
- Maggie’s burnout in corporate leadership—and the turning point that changed everything
- The moment I realized I was holding myself back from growing my team
- How leadership expands your impact beyond what you can do alone
- The shift from doing everything → leading with intention
