AI book disasters and the secret to better leadership

Hi Reader, I’m excited to share my latest podcast episode with you! I recently sat down with Dr. Melissa Robinson-Winemiller, author of The Empathic Leader: How EQ Via Empathy Transforms Leadership for Better Profit, Productivity, and Innovation, for a conversation that was both deeply personal and incredibly practical. Have you ever felt like you were “doing all the things” as a leader but still missing a connection with your team? Or perhaps you’re an aspiring author who is terrified of the publishing process? Dr. Melissa has been through it all—including having her book stolen just one month after publication! In this episode, we explore: • Why empathy is about “perspective-taking,” not just “feeling.” • The four-step iterative process for self-empathy and self-observation. • Why Dr. Melissa fired her first two publishers (one tried to use AI to write her book!). • The importance of copyright and how it saved her work from being stolen on Amazon. • Her experience recording her own audiobook to maintain authenticity. One of my favorite moments was when Dr. Melissa said: “If you haven’t taken the time to connect and understand… you don’t know if you’re going in for a hammer or a left-handed screwdriver.” It’s such a great reminder that empathy is the foundation for every other leadership tool we use. Tune in here Curious to learn more about Dr. Melissa? You can get her book The Empathic Leader on Amazon and connect with her through her website EQ Via Empathy or on LinkedIn. Best, Kelly P.S. If you enjoy the episode, I’d love if you could leave a review and share it with someone who is currently navigating their own leadership or book-writing journey! |

Hi Reader, I’m excited to share my latest podcast episode with you! I recently sat down with Marcy Axelrod, author of How We Choose to Show Up, for a conversation that honestly changed the trajectory of my entire day. Do you ever feel like you’re on a treadmill? You’re working hard, posting on social media, and trying to get that promotion or launch that book, but you feel burned out and hollow? Marcy explains that this “By Me” mode is actually a mechanical way of living that keeps us stuck...
Hi Reader, I’m excited to share my latest podcast episode with you! I recently sat down with Katie Mehnert, author of The Ask: Break the Rules, Unleash Curiosity and Build the Future, for a conversation that really hit home for me. We’ve all had those moments where we feel “stuck”—whether it’s in a career that no longer fits or a writing project that just won’t come together. Katie’s wake-up call was a literal stay in the hospital that forced her to start asking the hard questions. In this...
Hi Reader, I’m excited to share my latest podcast episode with you! I recently sat down with Dr. Lise Janelle, author of Conversations with the Heart and co-author of the upcoming book Unstuck with Jack Canfield, for a fascinating look at the mind. Have you ever felt like you’re “unlucky” in life or business? Dr. Lise explains that 90-95% of our actions are pre-programmed. If your subconscious thinks your goal is “unsafe,” it will trigger procrastination to protect you. In this episode, we...
