377: Four Ways to Move Things without Authority
You’ve watched it happen: someone with less context, less experience, maybe even a weaker idea, makes the call, and yours gets quietly set aside. Not because you were wrong. Because you weren’t the one with the title to decide. This week on Leading Yourself, Carolina gets practical: four specific...
-
Morning Brew: Moments vs. Timelines
Stop measuring your beginning against someone else’s decade of work.
-
376: Leading Without a Title, Starting Now
Most of us were taught that influence looks like the big moment: the promotion, the title, the seat at the table. It doesn't. Real influence is quieter than that, and you're already building it, in rooms you're already in, whether you've noticed or not. This week kicks off a new month on Leading...
-
Morning Brew: Gratitude & Ambition
You can be grateful for your life and still want more for yourself. Appreciation and ambition were never meant to be enemies.
-
375: The Questions I Hear Most - Career Squad Edition
This is the last episode of the September series, and I wanted to close it differently. Instead of teaching the framework one more time, I'm answering the nine questions I get asked most, about the Career Squad, about the book, about my own life. Some are practical: where do you even start if…

Morning Brew: When It Doesn’t Work Out
“No one glows more than someone who didn’t get what they thought they wanted, healed, and realized something better was on the way.”
-
374: The Two Seats Most People Leave Empty in their Career Squad
Since 2023 I have talked about the Career Squad Framework with hundreds of people. Two gaps come up more than any other, every single time. The Sponsor is the most common gap people have. The Critic is the rarest relationship most people have ever actually built. That's not a coincidence, and…

Morning Brew: The Next Level Might Feel Different
“Your next level might have less to do with working harder and more to do with you finally believing you’re allowed to have a life you actually enjoy.”
-
371: Live from the Book Launch: Build Your Career Squad with Charlie Ackerman and Andy Storch
What if the most important infrastructure of your career has nothing to do with your skills, your credentials, or your hard work, and everything to do with the people you have intentionally built around you? In this special episode of Leading Yourself, I am sharing the full recording of my live...
-
370: You Were Never Meant to Drive This Road Alone
This week, I'm doing something different. Instead of talking about the book, I'm reading it to you, straight from the opening chapter. It starts in Honduras, at a wire harness plant, where I was twenty-two years old and had just been handed the wheel of something I'd never driven, HR Manager for…

Morning Brew: People Who See You
“The right people won't just celebrate your success. They'll care about who you're becoming along the way.”
-
369: Ready or Not, We're Driving
On September 5th something that's lived privately in my head, my laptop, and stolen early mornings for two years becomes a real, my book The 9 People you Need in your Career Squad is launching. In this episode, I'm telling you the truth about launch week that nobody puts in the highlight reel…

Morning Brew: How Do You Want to Feel?
“Your dream life isn't just about what you accomplish. It's about how you feel when you wake up every morning.”
-
368: Leading through Transitions: What Are You Transitioning From, and To?
One question to close out the month. It sounds simple, and it is not. What are you transitioning from, and what are you transitioning to? Most of us cannot answer that, not because we do not know, but because we have never stopped long enough to ask. So in this series close, we stop and ask it...
-
Morning Brew: You Don't Need Their Approval
“You don't need everyone to understand your decisions. You need to understand why you're making them.”
-
367: Leading Through Transitions: The Messy Middle
This is the most personal episode of the series. I share the two years I spent in the middle with this book: writing, deleting, scrapping whole sections, and the quiet stretch where I thought I might not finish. I also share something I am not proud of, that I broke my own pattern and never...
-
Morning Brew: Be Different
“When you can't win by being better, you can win by being different.”
-
366: Leading Through Transitions: The Window You Run Past
Think about the last time you started something new at work. What did you do in those first few days? If you are like most high performers, you got moving fast, head down, proving you belonged. And you ran right past the one moment that mattered: the quiet window at the very beginning, before...
-
Morning Brew: The Standard Starts With You
“Your relationship with yourself sets the standard for every relationship you allow into your life.”
-
365: Leading Through Transitions: Who You're Becoming
Have you ever caught yourself describing who you are with a label that is not quite true anymore? Not a job title , a label. The strong one. The reliable one. The one who always says yes. The words come out the way they always have, and somewhere in the middle a small part of you notices: that is...
-
Morning Brew: Comfort Zones
"Your comfort zone is your most expensive habit."
-
364: The Recalibration I Did Not Plan For
I almost did not record this episode. Not because I did not have something to say, but because I was not sure it fit. I just got back from six weeks traveling, three of which I spent in Spain. And somewhere between the long lunches that nobody was rushing, the evenings that wound down slowly, and...
-
Morning Brew: Become, Don't Prove
"Be more interested in becoming than proving."
-
363: Course-Correcting Without Starting Over
You did the assessment. You saw what needs to change. And now the question sitting underneath everything is: how do I actually change it without blowing up everything that is working? That is what this episode is about. In Week 3 of the mid-year recalibration series, we are going to get…
more -
Morning Brew: Needed or Valued?
Being needed is not the same as being valued.
-
362: Your Career at the Halfway Point
Most professionals do a version of a mid-year check-in that looks like this: count what got done, calculate what is left, get back to work. That is a performance review. Not a recalibration. In this episode, Week 2 of our July mid-year recalibration series, I am going to walk through the four…
more -
361: The Life Check-In You Have Been Skipping
Half the year is gone. Before you sprint into the second half, stop for a minute and actually look at where you are. This week on Leading Yourself, we are kicking off July with a mid-year recalibration series : Are You Still on Your Path? And we start where it matters most: your life. Not your...
-
Morning Brew: The Power of Coming Home
After almost 3 weeks in Spain visiting my parents, siblings, family, and lifelong friends, I’m back with a full heart, and a powerful reminder. In this special episode of Morning Brew, I share what this trip taught me about rest, belonging, connection, and why some of the greatest things we can…
more -
360: Build your Career Squad
Back in February 2023, I recorded an episode that I had no idea would become one of the ones you all keep coming back to. I've gotten so many messages about this one, people sending it to a friend going through something hard, listening to it during a tough season, or just telling me it stuck…

Morning Brew: The People Who Change Us
“Be careful with the idea that everyone is replaceable. Some people only come into your life once.”
-
359: What conversations are you still avoiding?
Four weeks. A lot of ground covered. And one honest question to close it out: What conversation are you still avoiding? This week's episode is the June series closer, in two parts. Part 1 is a coaching session. Carolina sits with you and gets honest about where people actually get stuck at the…
more -
Morning Brew: Forgive. Act. Adapt.
“Be forgiving with your past self. Be strict with your present self. Be flexible with your future self.”
-
358: The Three-Phase Framework for Difficult Conversations
Most hard conversations do not go wrong because of what gets said. They go wrong because the person went in without knowing what they actually needed to say. Or they said the hard thing and immediately walked it back. Or the other person got defensive and they lost their footing. Or the...
-
Morning Brew: Fall in Love with Boring
“The only way to become excellent is to be endlessly fascinated by doing the same thing over and over. You have to fall in love with boredom.”
-
357: The Ask You Keep Not Making
For years, I was the highest-performing person at my level. Recognized constantly. Delivering results her peers were copying. And significantly underpaid. I knew it. I felt it. And I said nothing. In this episode, I share the story I have never told publicly, and then opens up the bigger pattern…

Morning Brew: Who Are You Becoming?
"The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be"
-
356: The Conversation That Changes Everything
There is a conversation you have been avoiding. Maybe for weeks. Maybe longer. You tell yourself the timing is not right, things are fine, it is not a big deal. But it is sitting there. Taking up space. Quietly changing how you show up. This week on Leading Yourself, we kick off June's Difficult...
-
Morning Brew: Stay Long Enough to be Found
“A lesson I wish I learned earlier: you get opportunities by showing up long enough for the right people to find you.”
-
355: Your Visibility Inventory
Four weeks. Three dimensions. One through-line: you are worth being seen. Fully. Strategically. Without apology. This is the finale of the May Visibility series, and it is built differently than any other episode this month. Two parts. Part one is a coaching session. Carolina walks you through...
-
Morning Brew: Think Big, Move Small
“When making plans, think big. When making progress, think small.”
-
354: Why Good Work Isn't Enough: The Third Piece Most High Achievers Are Missing
She owns her worth. She makes her work visible. She shows up, delivers, and has stopped waiting quietly in the background. And she is still not getting where she wants to go. Sound familiar? Then this is the episode you have been waiting for. In Week 3 of the Visibility series, we'll name the…
more -
Morning Brew: Emotionally Invested
“When people are financially invested, they want a return. When people are emotionally invested, they want to contribute.”
-
353: Making Your Work Visible (Without Feeling Like You're Bragging)
More times than I can count, I've come up with an idea that got implemented, became a best practice, and changed how something was done, without my name on it. Part of me was okay with it. I told myself: I know it was my idea. That is enough. But another part of me was frustrated. Disappointed.…

352: Owning Your Worth Without Apologizing
You work hard. You show up. You contribute. And yet when someone asks what you've been working on, your first instinct is to downplay it. Sound familiar? This month, we are talking about Visibility, and it starts right here, with the most foundational piece: learning to own your worth without...

Morning Brew: Design you Environment
"You don't have to be the victim of your environment, you can also be the architect of it"
-
351: Your Confidence Inventory
We made it to the final week of April. And I want to close this month the way it deserves to be closed, not with a lecture, but with a conversation. This episode has two parts. Part one is a coaching session. Just you and me, like we're sitting across from each other with coffee and nowhere to…

Morning Brew: Distractions
If you don’t separate yourself from your distractions, your distractions will separate you from your goals.
-
350: Stop Waiting to Feel Ready - The Sequence You've Had Backwards
For years I had the sequence backwards. I thought the path was believe in yourself, then act from that belief. So I tried everything to manufacture the belief: affirmations, journaling, hype playlists before big meetings. And it kept not holding. Not because positive thinking is worthless. But...

Morning Brew: Keep Showing Up
The most underrated skill in life is to keep showing up… even when you don’t feel like it
