Host Maureen (“Mo”) invites lady leaders to pause between the years and step into 2026 with clarity, not just more rest. Grounded in the LEAP model and organizational psychology, this episode helps you discern what to carry forward, what to release, and what to start so leadership feels aligned and sustainable.

Instead of long resolutions, choose one anchoring word and an activating phrase to guide daily decisions; prioritize alignment over hustle by matching values, capacity, and authority. Practical prompts and a reflection worksheet help you move from exhaustion to faithful, steady leadership.

Apply wisdom, set boundaries, and lead yourself first, then empower others, so you enter 2026 with intention, courage, and a clear, aligned path forward. Email for my Reflection Checklist to support your word and phrase for 2026 maureen@mcm-consultant.com

Using an I-O psychology lens and the LEAP model (Lead, Empower, Align, Persevere), Maureen offers practical scenarios, tools, and a three-step gossip audit to redirect unhealthy talk into accountability, clarity, and stronger culture.

Rise and shine, leader. This episode guides you to check your internal environment—your clarity, capacity, and calling—before making leadership decisions. Mo argues that burnout often stems from misalignment, not workload, and that the workplace atmosphere either fuels or drains you. She introduces the LEAP model (Lead, Empower, Align, Persevere) as practical steps to discern whether to stay or reposition, anchors the message with Proverbs 4:23, and offers a no-cost mini-session for leaders seeking clarity on culture and alignment.
