Leadership Isn’t a Title—It’s a Transformation
This week Jaime is pulling back the curtain on the real reason so many female entrepreneurs struggle in leadership—because we were never taught how to lead. In this solo episode, she shares vulnerable (and hilarious) stories of her earliest leadership fails, from being promoted too soon to leading people twice her age… with zero training.
If you’ve ever felt like you were “bad” at managing a team or avoided hard conversations to keep the peace, this one’s for you. Jaime breaks down why most leadership habits are just mimicry (and not the good kind), how the cost of poor leadership shows up in your time and money, and how she went from insecure manager to confident empire builder.
This episode matters because leadership isn’t a luxury—it’s the difference between burnout and breakthrough. And the best part? You can learn it.
