Lead with Heart, Live with Purpose
Lead with Heart, Live with Purpose is a leadership podcast for women who are ready to lead with more clarity, more confidence and more of themselves.
Hosted by Desley Williams, leadership and life coach, this is a women leadership podcast for the high-achieving woman who is brilliant at what she does, but has quietly started to wonder where she went in the middle of doing it all.
Each episode of this leadership development podcast explores what it really means to lead well, not just effectively, but sustainably. From centred leadership and self-development to boundaries, belonging and purpose, Desley brings warmth, honesty and deep coaching experience to every conversation.
This is podcast coaching for women who want to stop leading from pressure and start leading from purpose. Who want to feel like themselves again — in their work, their teams, and their lives.
Lead with heart. Live with purpose.
New episodes every 2nd Monday.
Lead with Heart, Live with Purpose
Before Strategy There are Values
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We often reach for strategy first: the plan, the framework, the next step.
But before strategy, there is value.
In this episode, I unpack why understanding what truly matters to you changes the way you lead, decide, and show up. We’ll talk about how values shift in different seasons, how misalignment shows up in your body, and how to recognise when you’re operating from expectation instead of truth.
