 For most women, when we are invited to study leadership the teachers, scholars, authorities and models are primarily… men. We are indoctrinated from the time we are born that men are the leaders and that natural male characteristics are the strengths you must also possess to be a good leader. Powerful. Strong. Authoritative. Direct. Assertive. Decisive. These and so many more are attributes that are typically associated with the male model of a leader. And so, for the better part of the last one hundred years as women have made their way into the fold, in a variety of leadership roles, we have learned and studied to walk the way of a men to achieve success. Women dismiss their own knowing because we’ve been so indoctrinated in male leadership models. We dismiss what we know for what others tell us to be and how to be seen. There is another way to lead. To be in alignment. To not feel like an imposter. It’s time for the reimagining of leadership. That’s not to disparage any of the progress that has come before us. Progress is progress. For those of us who stand in the footsteps of the women who came before us we are here because of their courage, bravery and resilience. I wonder instead if women equally looked to the characteristics they learned from their mothers for leadership. I wonder if we were taught to lean on different qualities to drive success. I wonder what might happen then? The traditional qualities of mothering are communication, nurturing, listening, strength, support, grace, and yes… love. What if to be the best leader you can be as a woman, you integrated the best of both? This is how women will stand with integrity in their role as leaders. As women, we can be assertive, direct, powerful, and authoritative but we need not only rely on those attributes for success. After 25 years of watching and studying leaders, I can tell you that for sure many traditional male attributes are effective in the short run, but they typically only serve a few. Whereas, when leadership is feminine. When the leader possesses the strengths of femininity and grace the results are for all. This podcast is my like my gentle request and invitation to my fellow female leaders that we reclaim the world leadership as one that is a feminine definition. That we continue to work with all of our allies to build organizations and systems that include more support, collaboration, grace and communication. And that we do so not because we are uncomfortable with the more traditional male-dominating models, but because we truly do know that leadership is a feminine strength and attribute. And the world needs more of us leading. Now more than ever.Copyright © 2019 - 2024 Kris Plachy Economía Gestión Gestión y Liderazgo Liderazgo

  • What About The Restless Leader: A Call to Explore What’s Next

    What About The Restless Leader: A Call to Explore What’s Next
    Jul 7 2025

    This season marks a turning point—not just for the podcast, but for the visionary women who listen. If you’ve ever wondered what comes after success, you’re in the right place.

    In this kickoff to a brand-new series, Kris introduces a deeply personal—and much-needed—conversation: what it means to go beyond the CEO. Because sometimes, the biggest transition isn’t building the business... it’s releasing your grip on it.

    Here’s what we explore:
    • What it really takes to prepare your business (and yourself) to function without you
    • Why staying too long might be holding you—and your team—back
    • How AI and legacy leadership tools can still support your team while you evolve

    This isn’t about retirement. It’s about reinvention.
    And if you’re feeling restless, you’re not alone.

    Tune in now and meet the woman you’re becoming—one transition at a time. And be sure to listen to upcoming episodes as Kris explores the seven transitions every founder must face to move into her next chapter.

  • When Leadership Isn’t Enough Anymore—And You Know It’s Time to Evolve

    When Leadership Isn’t Enough Anymore—And You Know It’s Time to Evolve
    Jun 30 2025

    You built the business. You built the team. You built the life. But now… what?

    This is the moment no one warns you about. When the business you poured everything into is running—maybe even thriving—but you feel restless. Detached. Like maybe you’ve outgrown what once felt like everything.

    In this episode, Kris Plachy opens the door to a new conversation—one that’s been quietly forming behind the scenes. This isn’t a pivot away from leadership. It’s a leap into deeper truth.

    She speaks directly to the woman who’s questioning what’s next:

    • The one who can’t imagine walking away, but can’t imagine staying the same.
    • The one who keeps showing up for her business, but secretly wonders if it’s still hers to love.
    • The one who has succeeded by every metric but still lies awake at night asking, “Who am I now?”

    It’s time to meet her—the woman beyond the CEO.

    Here’s what we explore

    The raw emotional terrain of success that no one prepares you for

    • Why so many Gen X founders are hearing a whisper they can’t ignore
    • The difference between leaving a business and leaving yourself behind
    • And how to start writing the next chapter—without rushing the ending of this one

    If you’ve built a beautiful business but you’re starting to dream in a new direction, Kris made this episode for you.

    This is your invitation to the age era.

    And Kris will meet you there.

  • Live Coaching Conversation: When the Mask Comes Off—and You Finally Say What You Want

    Live Coaching Conversation: When the Mask Comes Off—and You Finally Say What You Want
    Jun 23 2025

    This one’s raw. Tender. And so incredibly real.

    My client came into this conversation thinking she needed clarity. She was looking for the right answers—about her role, her goals, her business. But what came out was something much more vulnerable: the pressure to perform, the fear of letting people down, and the quiet ache of not being fully seen.

    This episode is a front-row seat to what happens when a powerful woman stops performing and starts telling the truth.

    Here’s what we explore:
    • The invisible cost of always being ‘the capable one’
    • What it really feels like to outgrow your own success
    • How to let your soul lead—especially when your head says, “Just keep going”

    This is the unfiltered, Beyond the CEO moment so many women never get to speak out loud—but you’ll hear it here.
