Welcome to Everyday Leaders, Leading Exceptionally. I'm your host, Ashley Pattee.

Leadership is undeniably complex. In my work as a therapist and leadership coach, I see leaders struggling with day-to-day challenges and feeling alone in their work, all while finding ways to grow and improve. For new leaders, it can feel overwhelming. For those who achieve significant leadership roles, it can feel lonely. Everyday Leaders, Leading Exceptionally is here to change that narrative.

Each episode features an interview with a different leader, where they share their experiences, challenges, and successes. We focus on connecting with leaders in our everyday spaces who are leading exceptionally. Moreover, we delve into what it takes to close the gap from being a good leader to becoming an exceptional one. Our goal is to offer insights, inspiration, and a sense of community to all leaders, whether you're just starting or well-established in your career.
