The podcast for everyday leaders.
Whether you’re running an organization, a team, or your household, I believe that everyone can lead well and live well.
We’re more than just quarterly numbers and Excel spreadsheets.
The face of leadership has changed. No longer are we focused only on our bonuses, bottom lines, and investor reports. Assimilation is out, authenticity is in.

My Name is Kishshana Palmer and
when it comes to conventional
leadership, I call bullsh*t.
As your resident leadership and management wiz, I’ve learned that leadership has a bad rap. Many folks feel that it’s stuffy. Out of reach. Full of jargon. And only reserved for old white men.
That ends today.
I’m taking my almost two decades in executive leadership and inviting my friends - CEO’s, Strategists, Psychologists and more - to pull up a seat and give you the real deal on what it takes to be a leader on your own terms.

What we are looking for:
We know that everyone has a story to tell so here's what we “generally '' look for. You’re a leader of a company, organization, team across any industry. You’re willing to tell the THA TRUTH (so if you need carefully crafted statements we don’t go together) and can “cut up” in the studio. We rap about personal and professional development, wellness and wellbeing, equity and inclusion, family, leaving a legacy, philanthropy...you name it (in my Shirley Caesar voice). And your host is unapologetically Black...every single day.
See you soon!
