There's no better way to kick off the Jeremy Unpaulished podcast than getting to hear from the host of the show, Speaker & Educator, Jeremy Paul, who shares his thoughts on Unpolished Leadership, the love he has for his work, and why right now is the right time to START. He welcomes former student and current marketing professional, Bridie Tolley, who wrote some incredibly thought-provoking questions to help introduce Jeremy to the listeners!

Leadership is often presented as confident, polished, and figured out, but most of us are leading while we’re still becoming. In this pilot episode of Jeremy Unpaulished, Jeremy shares why this podcast exists, what “unpolished” leadership actually means, and why waiting until you feel ready might be the very thing holding you back.

This isn’t a how-to guide or a checklist for perfect leadership. It’s an honest conversation about leading from where you are, messiness, questions, and all.

What would it look like to lead from who you already are?
