Growth can expose cracks inside even the strongest organizations, and leadership is often where the pressure shows first.

In this conversation, former SoundStorming co-founder and COO Alicia Rius explains why promoting a high-performing employee into management is not simply a reward. It is a complete career transition that requires a new mindset, clearer expectations, and stronger leadership systems.

• Personal
• People
• Purpose
• Process

She discusses why first-time managers often struggle, how unclear leadership creates inconsistency and erodes trust, and what organizations can do to build a healthier leadership pipeline from the ground up.

What if the behavior you keep trying to stop is not the real problem, but a signal pointing to something deeper?

Bestselling author and speaker Pam Dwyer joins I Am Refocused Radio for a powerful conversation about The Pattern Beneath, exploring what may be happening underneath overeating, overworking, overspending, over-giving, emotional reactions, shutting down, and other repeating coping patterns.

Pam shares insights from her forthcoming book, Delay the Binge, a compassionate guide centered on the power of the pause. Rather than relying on shame, extremes, or another promise to start over, she explains how slowing down in the moment can create space for curiosity, awareness, and a healthier response.

This conversation explores emotional triggers, relationship patterns, exhaustion, boundaries, self-trust, and how small delays can lead to meaningful change, one urge and one decision at a time.
