Leadership isn’t just about strategy, performance, or having the right answers. It’s about people...and the relationships behind the results.
Leadership is Social is a podcast about the human side of leadership.
Hosted by Nadine Lavigne, each episode features REAL conversations with leaders, coaches, entrepreneurs, and community builders about the experiences that shaped them, the relationships that matter, and what it really takes to lead and live well.
Just REAL conversations about people, relationships, and the way we show up for one another.
S1E4 - Denise Beers Kiepper (DBK) - Coaching Leaders through the toughest challenges.
What if the biggest opportunities in leadership come from embracing change, building real relationships, and finding a little magic in the chaos?In this episode of the E3 Podcast, I sit down with my friend Denise Beers Kiepper, an executive coach, consultant, and former HR executive who has spent her career helping leaders and organizations navigate change and build stronger cultures.Denise and I share a passion for the people side of business, and we both know that leadership is about so much more than strategies, titles, and results.We talk about the importance of trust, authentic relationships, creating environments where people can thrive, and what happens when we stop resisting change and start seeing the opportunities within it.It's a fun, honest conversation about leadership, connection, embracing the unexpected, and remembering that at the heart of every great organization are people.

Can you really have it all? And what does work-life balance actually look like?In this episode of the E3 Podcast, I sit down with my friend Lindsay Keegan to talk about something we both know well... navigating motherhood, demanding careers, leadership, and everything else life throws our way.We've both experienced the pressures of leading in large organizations while raising families and trying to make time for the people and things that matter most.We talk about the expectations we put on ourselves, the constant juggling act, and the reality that balance doesn't always mean everything gets equal time.It's an honest conversation about careers, family, priorities, and figuring out what really matters along the way.

S1E2 - Rebecca Kincaid - More Than Money: Leadership, Life & Building a Business
What happens when leadership, business, relationships, and real life all collide?In Episode 2 of Leadership is Social, I sit down with my close friend Rebecca — a leader and business owner in the retirement and financial management space — for a conversation that goes well beyond work.We talk about the emotional rollercoaster of leadership, building and growing a business, navigating the responsibility that comes with leading others, and what she’s learned about herself along the way.And because Rebecca and I are friends, this isn’t a formal interview. It’s the kind of conversation we might have anyway — about work, life, people, and everything in between.Because behind every business are people. Behind every leader are relationships. And leadership is social.
