| 5/1/25 |  Redefining Success and Self-Awareness in Leadership with Kim Singline (Ep 53) | In this episode of True Power, I’m joined by Kim Singline—psychologist, leadership coach, consultant, and co-founder of NeuroAmp. Kim is passionate about helping individuals and organisations move beyond outdated ways of thinking about performance, leadership, and wellbeing. Through her private practice, Inner Growth Psychology & Consulting, Kim supports teenagers and adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, burnout, chronic health conditions, self-esteem issues, and other mental health challenges. She also partners with organisations to build strong leadership, inclusive cultures, and high-performing teams that embrace authenticity and difference. As co-founder of NeuroAmp, Kim is leading a bold movement to help businesses harness the strengths of neurodivergent employees and create workplaces that work for all kinds of thinkers. In our conversation, Kim shares her personal story of living with rheumatoid arthritis and a late ADHD diagnosis—and the powerful lessons she’s learned about perfectionism, pushing through pain, and finally learning to listen to her body. We explore why masking is so exhausting, what inclusive leadership really looks like, and how self-awareness is the key to meaningful cultural change.

| 4/16/25 |  Navigating Authenticity and Business Development with Mark Williams (Ep 52) | In this thoughtful and relatable episode of True Power, I’m joined by Mark Williams, founder of Quigly Cyber, longtime co-working buddy, and all-around generous human. Mark’s career spans decades in emerging technology, from Apple to AI to cybersecurity—though he doesn’t consider himself a “tech guy,” but rather a businessperson who loves to help others. Our conversation dives into the often awkward intersection between authenticity and business development. Mark shares the discomfort he feels when navigating deep, meaningful conversations that then need to shift into a pitch for his cybersecurity services. It’s a real, raw look at the challenges of staying true to yourself while also running a business. We explore the grey area between being uncomfortable and being inauthentic, the parts of ourselves we evolve out of as we grow, and the invisible pressure to “puff up” or perform in professional spaces. Mark also reflects on the importance of helping others, the evolution of leadership, and the humbling wisdom of an 85-year-old stranger who reminded him (and now us) that we’re always learning. If you’ve ever struggled with blending friendship and business, or felt that internal tug-of-war between who you are and who you think you should be—this episode will speak to your soul.

| 4/3/25 |  Navigating ADHD, Imposter Syndrome, and Purposeful Work with Angela Raspass (Ep 51) | In this deeply honest and empowering episode of True Power, I’m joined by Angela Raspass—business strategist, self-leadership mentor, and creator of the Spark Advantage. Angela supports fast-thinking, purpose-driven women to turn their big ideas into meaningful impact—without battling their brains every step of the way. Diagnosed with ADHD later in life, Angela brings raw insight and practical wisdom about what it really means to be true to yourself. She opens up about the emotional journey of understanding her neurodivergence, navigating imposter syndrome, and letting go of the pressure to constantly prove her worth through achievement. Together, we explore how self-leadership is the bridge between inner trust and outer action. Angela shares strategies like the “Fabulous File” and “Belief Buddies” that help her stay anchored through moments of self-doubt, and reminds us that our true power lies not in perfection—but in our ability to pause, reflect, and choose aligned action.
