If the idea of “falling in love” with your business makes you roll your eyes a little…same. But hear us out:

In this episode, Kira talks through what that phrase actually means: building a business that feels worth showing up for, especially when life is doing the absolute most.

This episode is part pep talk, part leadership reality check, and part “hey girl, your mission statement can’t just live in a Canva deck.” We’re talking all about mission & vision, trust, leadership identity, and how to build a team culture that’s unified, bought-in, and honestly… a little cult-like (in the best, non-creepy way).

Key Takeaways:

• Your mission and vision aren’t “set it and forget it”. They need revisiting as you evolve.
• Trust on a team is more than just you trusting them, it’s you building systems that help them trust you.
• The strongest leadership doesn't involve copy/paste from LinkedIn or Shark Tank, but rather owning who you are and leading from that.
• A “cult-like” team culture comes from shared commitment to the mission (not surface-level perks and vibes).
• Your business will reflect back what you put into it, and alignment + authenticity are what make it

This one’s your reminder that you don’t need a new personality to lead well...you just need to lead on purpose!

Take a peek behind the curtain of the podcast’s brand-new direction that’s less “HR rulebook,” more “let’s talk about the wonderfully unpredictable humans running your business.” Kira shares the personal burnout story that cracked her leadership wide open, why mental health and real support systems aren’t optional, and what authentic leadership actually looks like when you stop white-knuckling through it.

Kira’s story sets the tone for this new era and is an open invitation for returning listeners and fresh arrivals to buckle up and align with the honest, human-first conversations that will guide every episode from here on out.

We're so glad you're along for this ride!
