Hey Courageous Friends,

On this week's empowering episode of The Frequency of Courage, Megan Imbert sits down with trailblazing tech executive, board leader, and author Tracey Newell. Tracey’s journey spans decades of leadership in the high-tech industry, culminating in her recently released book, Hers for the Taking: The Path to the C-Suite and Beyond.

Together, they explore the realities women face on the path to leadership, from imposter syndrome and self-doubt to micromanagement, burnout, and the art of influence. Tracey shares honest stories of being the only woman in the room, turning down promotions out of fear, and ultimately discovering that powerful leadership begins with presence, purpose, and personal clarity.

They discuss the importance of empowering frontline workers, navigating the challenges of management, and the necessity of providing honest feedback. The dialogue emphasizes the significance of calmness in conflict resolution, setting clear expectations, and the role of kindness in delivering constructive criticism.
