Episode Description

Season 1 has been a blast! We have loved having Lisa be our co-host and interviewing business leaders, authors, and therapists about how they were formed as leaders in the midst of disruption. In this final episode for the season, Lisa flips the script and puts Michaela in the interview seat. They talk about

  • How learning to be present to her kids has helped Michaela be present as a leader;
  • The adaptive skill of being a thermometer and a thermostat; and
  • The value of people and relationships.
