In a world saturated with noise, how do we learn to truly communicate and lead from a place of humanity? On this episode of Lioness Conversations, I was absolutely honored to sit down with the brilliant Kibi Anderson, a leadership strategist and Emmy award-winning storyteller who is on a mission to bring humanity back to business. Kibi, who I've had the pleasure of getting to know for my upcoming book, introduced me to the powerful concept of being a "vocal doula"—helping leaders birth the messages they are meant to share with the world. She argues that effective, human-centered communication is the single most important survival skill in today's landscape of constant change and technological advancement. We dove deep into the difference between survival-based communication, which is rooted in fear and assumption, and human-based communication, which is driven by curiosity. Kibi shared her brilliant "OAQ framework" (Own your emotions, Assess your tone, and Question to understand) as a practical tool to shift our conversations from reactionary to intentional, fostering connection and trust even in the most challenging situations. What truly resonated with me was Kibi's raw and inspiring personal story of becoming a "Rested Rebel." A recovering workaholic who nearly lost her life to the hustle culture, Kibi's journey from a hospital bed to redefining rest as an act of trust and joy is a powerful testament to the fact that, as Kibi attests, “you will never get what you want by working harder, but by resting more”. Join us for a conversation that will challenge you to trade worry for curiosity, embrace rest as a superpower, and learn how to co-create a more human world, one conversation at a time. This is an episode you don't want to miss if you're ready to lead with more confidence, joy, and profound impact.

🌿 Grief is not an identity — it’s an experience. In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Rachel Tenpenny McGonigle, who shares her courageous journey of navigating unimaginable loss after the death of her twin daughters.
