🎧 Superpower of Transformative Leadership starts in the C.A.V.E.

Leadership isn’t just about managing for compliance—it’s about creating Transformative Engagement. Tune in to discover how Curiosity, Accountability, Vulnerability, and Empathy can reshape your leadership and strengthen your team culture.

https://talktoconnect.podbean.com

In this episode, I introduce my C.A.V.E. Framework:

🔹 C – Curiosity: Ask questions that open dialogue, not shut it down. 🔹 A – Accountability: Own your percentage in every situation to build trust. 🔹 V – Vulnerability: Show your humanity and plant seeds of connection. 🔹 E – Empathy: Extend grace to others and yourself.

💡 Think of your own “CAVE Time” as the place where you reflect, recharge, and emerge with the superpower to connect authentically with your team.

👉 Listen now and let’s build leaders who lead with Heart, Courage, and Connection!

🎙️12.2.25 New Episode Alert!

🎧 Leadership with Transformative Engagement vs. Managing Compliance

In this powerful episode, Michell dives into the difference between leadership that truly transforms engagement and leadership that merely manages compliance. Drawing from nearly 25 years of real‑world leadership experience, she shares how embodying—not just performing—key principles can shift team culture, build trust, and inspire people to show up as their best selves.

📝 Listeners will learn:

✨Why authentic leadership requires self‑reflection and emotional awareness

✨How to reframe accountability hierarchies without falling into control or domination

✨Practical tools for hard conversations using the HARD framework (Heart, Appreciation, Real, Direct)

✨Why leaders who admit “I don’t know” gain more credibility than those who pretend to have all the answers

Michell also shares personal stories, team feedback, and book recommendations—including works by Brené Brown and The Go‑Giver—to help leaders elevate their impact. Whether you’re leading now or preparing to step into leadership, this episode challenges you to move beyond compliance and embrace transformative engagement that creates spaciousness, growth, and thriving teams.
