Episode Title: Leading with Authenticity: The Power of Gratitude, Vulnerability, and True Self-Expression [The secret to leading with purpose.] Host: Robyn Engelson Guest: Nadine Levigne Episode Summary: In this insightful episode, I sit down with Nadine, a seasoned leader with experience at GE, Boeing, and a tech company, to explore the power of authentic leadership. Nadine shares her journey of helping others become the best version of themselves through meaningful conversations, vulnerability, and the ability to lead with gratitude. We dive into the importance of asking probing questions, discovering the emotional drivers behind behavior, and how leaders can foster authenticity in their teams. If you’ve ever struggled with feedback, leadership pressures, or the need to conform, this episode will inspire you to embrace your true self and create a workplace culture that celebrates vulnerability and connection. You’ll learn: The Art of Asking Probing Questions: Nadine shares how asking deep, meaningful questions allows people to uncover and address the true issues they face, rather than just solving surface-level problems. Embracing Vulnerability in Leadership: Authentic leadership isn’t about perfection—it’s about aligning actions with values and being open to vulnerability. Nadine explains how leaders can show up as their true selves to foster stronger connections. Gratitude as a Tool for Personal Growth: Nadine highlights how focusing on gratitude can lift the weight of trying to be someone you're not and help you embrace your authentic self, both in leadership and life. Handling Feedback: Learning to process feedback effectively is crucial in maintaining authenticity. Nadine discusses her experience with feedback and why it’s important to evaluate it within context. Memorable Quotes: “It’s more questions that you ask as opposed to really trying to solve their problem.” “Whatever’s going on, you have the tools inside you to fix it.” “Gratitude isn’t just about saying thank you—it’s about embodying it in everything you do.” “They’ll remember how you made them feel.” “It is what it is, but at least I don’t have that weight of trying to pretend I’m something I’m not.” Actionable Steps for Listeners: Ask the Right Questions: If you're facing a challenge or conflict, pause and ask deeper questions to uncover the emotions or underlying issues. Practice Vulnerability: Embrace your true self, imperfections and all. Lead with authenticity and invite others to do the same. Integrate Gratitude into Your Life: Start each day by acknowledging something you’re grateful for—it will help shift your mindset and lighten the emotional load. Reflect on Feedback: When receiving feedback, consider the context and source before deciding if change is needed. Not all feedback should be acted upon immediately. Final Thought: Authentic leadership starts with embracing who you truly are. When you lead with vulnerability, gratitude, and deep self-awareness, you not only inspire others to do the same but also create a culture of trust and connection that will drive lasting success. It’s time to lead with authenticity—your true self has everything you need to make a positive impact. What listeners have to say: “Her energy is fire!
