About Growing Through It
The Made Leader is the podcast for new managers who were thrown into leadership with zero training and even less support. Only 10% of people are natural leaders. The rest of us? We have to become one. Hosted by Jen Arnold, this show is your no-BS guide to surviving (and thriving) in your first three years of leadership. You'll get practical strategies to help you lead through difficult conversations, managing up, and giving meaningful feedback. Just real advice for real challenges. Whether you're dealing with imposter syndrome, difficult conversations, or the overwhelm of leading your former peers, The Made Leader will help you lead better tomorrow than you did today. Leadership isn't who you are. It's who you're becoming.
