Lead Through It with Kim and Jada
Hosted by Kim Andrews and Jada Willis - two would-be competitors who chose collaboration over rivalry - Lead Through It is your weekly dose of real talk and practical wisdom for navigating leadership’s hardest (and most human) moments.
Each episode features candid conversations with business owners and seasoned leaders who’ve led through the big pivots and the everyday grind. Whether you’re a service-based entrepreneur scaling early success (Jada’s sweet spot) or an organizational leader managing complex change (Kim’s jam), Lead Through It helps you get clear on where you're headed, build a resilient team that steps up, and weather the tough stuff no one warns you about.
You’ll walk away with fresh insight, actionable takeaways, and just enough wit and charm to keep things interesting.

Ep. 18 - Owning It: Why Progress Starts With the Truth
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In the first full week of 2026, Lead Through It opens with a message that is honest, challenging, and necessary.
This week, Jada goes solo to talk about the one thing that actually changes your business, your leadership, and your life: owning it. Not the surface-level version. The real one.
If you feel stuck, frustrated, or like you keep circling the same problems, this episode walks you through why that is happening and what it really takes to break the cycle. Jada unpacks radical accountability, the discomfort that comes with real growth, and why avoiding the truth only compounds the mess over time.
This is not a hype-you-up, feel-good kickoff to the year. It’s a grounded, practical conversation about facing what you’ve been avoiding, naming it, and trusting yourself enough to figure it out as you go.
If you’re ready to stop repeating the same year and start making real progress, this episode is for you.
If today’s conversation resonated, connect with us and be part of the community of leaders who refuse to lead alone.
