  • Why Your Leadership Network Isn’t Growing (And How to Change It)
    2026/10/03

    Leadership can be deeply rewarding and deeply isolating. In this episode of Building Leadership Community Podcast, Coach Dora Mendez talks with strategist, advocate, coalition builder, and leadership expert Na'ilah Amaru about how her understanding of impact, leadership, and community has evolved throughout her career.

    Na'ilah shares why she learned to look for leverage, why leadership exists beyond formal job titles, and why community can provide the support and space people need when meaningful work becomes emotionally demanding. She also offers a practical reframing for anyone who dislikes networking: stop approaching the room as a transaction and start approaching it as community building.

    A central lesson from the conversation is simple: don't chase titles, chase alignment. Relationships built around shared values can outlast jobs, campaigns, and professional status.

  • What 30+ Years in Education Taught Dr. Angela Arias About Leadership
    2026/09/25

    Coach Dora Mendez sits down with author, mentor, and retired educator Dr. Angela Arias for a deeply personal conversation about leadership, family, education, resilience, and community.

    Their connection began long before either of them became educators.

    Their families lived next door to one another in the Dominican Republic and remained so close after coming to New York that Dora grew up believing Dr. Arias was part of her extended family.

    Years later, they reconnect as colleagues to explore the lessons that shaped Dr. Arias’ life and more than three decades in education.


    In This Episode

    Dr. Arias shares why she tells the people she mentors:

    “You need to set your own personal goals. Otherwise somebody else will set them for you.”

    She also reflects on becoming the first college graduate in her family, navigating discouragement from educators, mentoring the next generation, embracing aging, and carrying forward the lessons her father taught her about work, education, and opportunity.

    The conversation also explores a broader definition of community, one that includes not only those who support us, but the people and experiences that challenge us to grow.

  • What Changes When Leaders Learn to Truly Listen
    2026/09/18
    What does it take to make people feel genuinely heard at work?Leadership strategist, keynote speaker, and author Nancy Marmolejo joins host Coach Dora Mendez on Building Leadership Community Podcast to explore how intentional listening, emotional intelligence, psychological safety, and effective communication can transform the way leaders build trust and strengthen their teams.Nancy introduces her practical HEARD listening framework: Presence, Patience, and Phrasing. Rather than treating listening as a soft skill or good intention, she explains how leaders can turn it into an everyday leadership practice.One deceptively simple question can change a conversation:“Do you need to be helped, or do you need to be heard?”That distinction can help managers resist the instinct to immediately fix a problem and instead understand what the person in front of them actually needs.Coach Dora and Nancy also discuss sustainable leadership, setting boundaries, delegating effectively, leading from your strengths, overcoming the fear of appearing “cringe,” and creating environments where people feel safe enough to contribute authentically.In This Episode, You'll LearnThe HEARD Framework: How Presence, Patience, and Phrasing can improve listening, trust, and communication.Helped vs. Heard: The question leaders can ask before automatically jumping into problem-solving mode.How to Be More Present: Why putting down the phone, closing the laptop, and eliminating distractions can immediately improve a conversation.Sustainable Leadership: Why leadership doesn't require saying yes to everything, and how boundaries and delegation protect your energy.Leading From Strengths: Nancy uses the teamwork in Ocean’s Eleven as a memorable example of what can happen when people contribute their individual expertise.Authenticity and the Fear of “Cringe”: How fear of judgment can prevent people from speaking, connecting, and participating fully.Listening and Inclusion: How bias, microaggressions, racism, sexism, and neurodiversity can affect who feels heard and valued in the workplace.Connect With Nancy MarmolejoHeard Leadership + Free Listening Essentials Quizhttps://HeardLeadership.comTake Nancy’s free Listening Essentials Quiz to explore your strengths across Presence, Patience, and Phrasing and receive results with practical action steps.Heard: Transforming Leadership Through the Power of ListeningNancy’s forthcoming book explores how intentional listening can strengthen leadership, communication, workplace relationships, and organizational culture.LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nancymarmolejo/Substackhttps://thenancymarmolejo.substack.com/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/heardleadership/Communities & References MentionedLean In LatinasCoach Dora and Nancy originally connected through the Lean In Latinas community, which comes up as they discuss the different kinds of communities that can support us personally and professionally.Public Libraries and CommunityNancy discusses public libraries as sources of community, connection, learning, and shared resources, including experiences with Oakland Public Library and Mill Valley Public Library in California.Ocean’s Eleven and Ocean’s 8Nancy uses the ensemble-team concept from Ocean’s Eleven as an analogy for strengths-based leadership: strong teams bring together people with different areas of expertise rather than expecting everyone to be good at everything.Resources From Coach DoraTransform Your Leadership Coaching Coursehttps://CoachDoraMendez.com/coursesCoach Dora Resources & Courseshttps://CoachDoraMendez.comCoach Dora Merchhttps://www.coachdoramendez.com/merchWatch the Full ConversationPrefer video?
