Leadership gets talked about a lot. This episode talks about it honestly.
In Leadership Unfiltered: Unplugged, Ashley and Deanna strip away the buzzwords and dig into how leadership actually shows up — especially as it continues to evolve in a virtual, fast-moving, high-expectation world. We talk about how leadership has changed… and why it had to.
We unpack what really makes a great leader — empathy, transparency, and trust — and challenge some commonly held beliefs along the way:
🤔 Can you be a strong leader in a fully virtual environment?
🔄 Is changing your mind a weakness… or a strength?
🧠 Do leaders really need to have all the answers?
Then we pressure-test real workplace situations — from high performers who can’t hit deadlines, to being called out in large meetings, to teams that just can’t seem to work together.
