Meet Shelley Johnson!
In this episode, I sit down with my sister, Shelley Johnson—founder of Boldside Consulting and host of the award-nominated This is Work podcast. A former HR exec turned leadership coach, Shelley helps leaders build teams people never want to leave.
We’re talking real talk on micromanagement, team culture, and why playing small is NOT the answer (plus, a few hilarious family stories along the way).
And what makes a leader truly unforgettable—for the right reasons?
What You’ll Learn:
- The one question every leader needs to ask: What’s it like to be on the other side of me?
- Why most managers struggle (and how to actually become a leader people WANT to follow)
- The micromanagement cycle and how to break free from it
- How to give direct, honest feedback—without being soul-crushing OR sugarcoating
- Why building a personal brand is a game-changer for your business and career
- The biggest mindset shifts that creative business owners need to scale beyond six figures
- How to handle fear of putting yourself out there and stop overthinking what people think
