Lead Through It with Kim and Jada
If you're leading a team or an organization through something hard right now, you're in the right place.
Jada Willis and Kim Andrews are the co-hosts of Lead Through It. They’re here because leadership gets lonely, and they want to make it less so. Every week, they bring you stories about how other leaders are doing it, practical tips and tools you can use right away, and their signature wit and charm.
In an alternate universe, Jada and Kim are competitors. But they decided collaborating would be much more fun. Kim spent 15 years inside schools and nonprofits and now helps leaders build strong teams, make tough decisions, and get stuff done without burning out. Jada built a seven-figure HR firm from nothing, sold it, and now helps leaders turn chaos into clarity, fueled by a lot of faith and grit. They’ve had different paths but share the values that matter most.
If *it* is hitting the fan, we’ve got you. Let's lead through it together.

Ep. 37 - Muriel Wilkins on How High-Performing Leaders Can Find More Ease
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Lead Through It, Jada and Kim sit down with executive coach, author, and Coaching Real Leaders host Muriel Wilkins for a conversation that is equal parts leadership wisdom, personal reflection, and deep exhale.
Muriel shares the heart behind her work: helping leaders stop making leadership harder than it has to be. Together, they explore the mindset patterns that often keep high-performing leaders stuck, including the need to be involved in everything, the pull toward urgency, and the belief that being right is enough. Muriel explains why true leadership growth is not just about changing behaviors, but about noticing the beliefs driving those behaviors in the first place.
The conversation also moves beyond tactics into something much deeper: ease, surrender, self-compassion, and what it means to lead without gripping so tightly. Muriel offers a powerful reminder that leadership is not about controlling every outcome. It is about seeing reality clearly, making intentional choices, and learning how to stay present through discomfort without adding unnecessary suffering.
This episode is for leaders, coaches, and high achievers who are carrying a lot, moving fast, and wondering if there is another way to lead. Muriel’s answer is both grounding and freeing: yes, there is. And it starts with awareness, alignment, and a little more ease.
