Episode 14: The Audacity to Lead: Turning Tension into Clarity with Dethra Giles
In this episode of Her BOSS Brain, host Pallavi Jain, TEDx Speaker, former HR Leader at Harvard, and Resilient Leadership Expert, is joined by Dethra Giles, award-winning leadership strategist and author, to decode how to lead through tension with grace and audacity.
Known as The Audacity Broker, Dethra shares her powerful DARE model—a neuroscience-backed framework for transforming conflict into clarity. Together, she and Pallavi explore how to stay centered when emotions rise, communicate with precision, and turn breakdowns into breakthroughs.
Through real-life examples and brain-based tools, this conversation will reshape how you see conflict—not as a threat, but as an opportunity to deepen trust, self-awareness, and connection. You’ll learn how to lead conversations that heal, not hurt, and how to build the kind of confidence that doesn’t crumble under pressure.
