Is there more to leadership than traditional methodologies and cold, business-like environments?

Dana Shamas, an executive leadership and wellness coach, introduces us to a new way of viewing leadership: a blend of intuition, joy, and holistic techniques she uses in her coaching. Dana's transformative journey from conventional business environments to incorporating breath work, sound healing and more into her coaching style challenges the norms.

Dana takes us through the often-overlooked impacts of gender norms on leadership styles. We explore how conditioned behaviours can limit our ability to lead and the vital importance of unlearning them to bring forth our inherent strengths. She walks us through the profound power of asking the right questions to truly understand our needs and desires, as well as breath work and its potential to prevent burnout.

The episode draws to a close with a deep dive into emotional regulation and the indispensable role of setting boundaries in processing our feelings. Dana's insights into the power of presence and active listening promise to bring significant shifts in both personal and professional life. If you're looking to lead with heart and intuition, tune in to this transformative episode.
