About this listen

What does it take to lead with high expectations while holding space for empathy, creativity, and grace? In this thought-provoking episode of Courageous Conversations, we sit down with Adrian Piro—CEO of Creative Market, a leader who has carved her path through male-dominated industries by blending rigor with compassion and redefining what strong leadership looks like.

Adrian shares how her multicultural upbringing shaped her values, how she’s learned to challenge perfectionism without lowering the bar, and how becoming a mother reframed her view of leadership. From navigating toxic workplaces to building inclusive teams that thrive on trust and accountability, Adrian’s journey offers a refreshing blueprint for authentic leadership in today’s complex world.

This episode is an honest exploration of trusting your instincts, giving grace without losing your edge, and leading teams with both heart and ambition.
