In this powerful episode of Lead With Heart, Dr. Jesse Hanson explores what it truly means to lead beyond strategy, titles, and performance. Joined by workplace psychologist and executive coach Carl Lemu, the conversation dives deep into conscious leadership, impostor syndrome, shadow work, mindfulness, and the integration of mental, emotional, and somatic intelligence in modern organizations.

Drawing from decades of experience in leadership development and organizational psychology, Carl shares his personal journey—from childhood adversity and corporate consulting to mindfulness, conscious capitalism, and bringing soul back into business. Together, they unpack how unexamined belief systems, stress, and image management quietly shape leadership behaviors—and how self-awareness, vulnerability, and embodiment can transform both individuals and cultures.
