Crossing Into Unknown Realms: Our Inaugural Adventure

Welcome to Crossing the Realms, where two sisters attempt to merge their love of fantasy books with actual leadership theory. In this inaugural episode, Andi Waterhouse and Teddi Tostanoski explain their slightly unhinged premise: analyzing fantasy characters like business case studies while drinking craft beer.Between sips of Belgian triple and interruptions from Alpine (Andi's Great Pyrenees "house dragon"), they share their own leadership journeys and Clifton StrengthsFinder results. Learn why Andi the soccer coach sees leadership lessons in every fantasy battle, and how Teddi went from accidental leadership elective to analyzing C-suite communications. Fair warning: they're still figuring out the whole podcast thing, but at least they came prepared with good beer and strong opinions about transformational leadership.Book Spoilers: Light references to The Book of Azrael by Amber V.
