Moxielicious, hosted by Alexia Vernon, is the podcast for entrepreneurial and corporate leaders who want to unapologetically speak up for themselves, their companies, and the ideas and issues that matter most to them. It's for industry leaders who have been called to develop the voices of their people but who know they need to dial-up their own voices right along-side them. It's for those who know they have massive thought leadership potential but often feel like they are best-kept secrets in their fields - and they are over it. Whether you call yourself a coach, consultant, entrepreneur, business or nonprofit leader OR you are in HR/talent development, you sit in the C-suite, or you sling mai tais on the beach in Hawaii half the year, if you love practical self-improvement as much as you love strategy served up with ample helpings of sass, this is the podcast for you.
