Are You Being Seen as the Strategic Leader You Actually Are—Or Just Another Applicant in the Pile?

Let’s be honest. The market isn’t what it used to be, and neither is executive job search.

Applications aren’t cutting it. Visibility is the new résumé. And real connection, not forced networking, is your most undervalued asset.

If you're a revenue-producing leader navigating change or quietly considering what's next, these are the 5 insights you can’t afford to miss.

Each one is designed to challenge your current approach, sharpen your edge, and help you get found, before you ever hit apply.

Let’s dive in.

Poll Results Are In: Here’s What Executive Leaders Are Craving Most At Work

We asked. You answered.

📈 Here’s what your fellow leaders said they’re missing most:

• Clarity

• Purpose

• Alignment

Not salary. Not prestige. Not even impact.

"We spend a third of our lives at work. Shouldn’t you be using your gifts?"

That’s the core of this poll, and it’s why so many of you are quietly burned out, or feeling stuck in high-paying roles that feel empty.

The good news? That’s fixable. But you can’t solve a clarity problem with more productivity hacks.

That’s why I’ve partnered with The Microdosing Method, a 6-week guided program that supports high-achievers in reconnecting with their inner clarity, confidence, and creativity through science-backed plant medicine.

That plant medicine and microdosing can be game-changers for burnout, clarity, and real healing.

8 months ago, I knew nothing. Then I attended The Microdosing Method workshop.

It gave me clarity, calm, and tools to align my spirituality and work with who I truly am.

This program combines:

• Science-backed tools + holistic healing

• Personalized protocols

• Nervous system support + spiritual integration

Growth Isn’t About Grind. It’s About the Company You Keep

🎥 Watch the Adam Grant clip

This post resonates with my clients. Why?

Because most high performers were taught that growth is all about hustle. But Adam Grant drops a truth bomb here:

“Growth depends on surrounding yourself with people who expect you to keep growing.”

That’s the shift. Not grind. Environment.

So take a look at your circle right now. Are they expanding your vision or feeding your burnout?

If not, it’s time to upgrade your board of directors.
