In this episode of the Small Brave Moves podcast, we're stepping into a different kind of brave leadership—the leadership of your health. I'm joined by Julie Griffin, executive health coach, certified functional medicine health coach, and former corporate HR leader with over 30 years of experience.

Julie brings a powerful blend of executive-level insight and deep knowledge of functional medicine and lifestyle behavior change to help high-achieving executive women prioritize their well-being.

We dive into the lessons we learned firsthand from completing a three-day cleanse together (spoiler: it wasn’t always pretty), and the parallels between how we treat our bodies and how we lead. From navigating the demands of executive life to honoring what your body is really telling you, we unpack why so many leaders struggle to slow down, listen in, and make themselves a priority.

Julie shares why small, intentional actions—like a cleanse or habit stacking—can become game-changing leadership moves, and how self-leadership builds the resilience, clarity, and capacity needed to show up for your teams and your life.

If you're a leader who puts everyone else first, this episode will challenge you to rethink that—and give you practical, brave ways to reclaim your energy and your leadership from the inside out.

In this episode of the Small Brave Moves podcast, we explore what it really takes to
detoxify a workplace and lead with courage and grace.

I'm joined by Alan Utley, keynote speaker, certified leadership coach, and the HR pro behind the concept of fanatical grace. With 25 years of experience in senior HR roles, Alan shares powerful stories about the small brave moves that helped him shift from perfectionism to authenticity—and from conflict to connection.

We dive into how grace isn't about weakness, but about creating space for
imperfection, leading with humanity, and building cultures where people can thrive.

Learn how to navigate tough conversations, choose relationships over being right, and lead with more flow, forgiveness, and bold compassion. If you're ready to make your workplace healthier and your leadership braver, this one's for you.
