About this listen
💡 Episode Summary:
If you’ve ever felt like trying to lead change in healthcare is like pushing a boulder uphill...with one hand tied behind your back...you’re not alone.
In this episode, I introduce the LISTEN Framework—a simple, six-step rhythm that’s helping slightly rebel-spirited healthcare leaders drive real change from the inside out. It’s not theory. It’s not fluff. It’s the kind of people-first, ground-up process that works in messy, complex systems.
If you're craving a way to lead that doesn't drain your soul, this episode is for you.
Why most change efforts fail (and how LISTEN fixes that)
How to lead from a place of truth, clarity, and connection
The six LISTEN steps and how to apply them in your world
What grassroots leadership really looks like (hint: it’s relational, not rushed)
How small, meaningful actions can ripple out into system-wide change
L – Listen to what’s underneath the noise
I – Involve people from the start, not just at the end
S – Strengthen what’s already working
T – Take Action in small, real-world ways
E – Evaluate with honesty and curiosity
N – Nurture relationships, culture, and momentum
What part of the LISTEN Framework speaks to you most right now?

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being present.
You don’t need a title. You don’t need permission. You are the transformation.
Until next time—keep listening,
