What if the only thing standing between you and next-level leadership… is waiting for permission that no one’s coming to give?

You don’t need another leadership book—you need to stop playing small in your own company.

In this fiery Thursday Rant, Dawn calls out a silent epidemic among female founders: waiting for permission to lead the very business they built.

From shrinking in the boardroom to apologizing in Slack, this is your wake-up call to drop the people-pleasing and embody the CEO your business actually needs.

No fluff. No permission slip. Just a velvet-boot kick toward clarity, confidence, and power.

If this episode hit home, you’re ready for Dawn’s private email community where real leadership shifts happen. Get the hard truths, frameworks, and strategic moves to lead like the CEO your business deserves. Join now—it’s free

Key Takeaways

• Leadership isn’t granted—it’s claimed. Stop waiting for a title or team approval. Decide to lead.
• Clarity is more effective than “nice.” Your team doesn’t need soft—they need specifics.
• People-pleasing ≠ leadership. Shrinking helps no one—not your vision, not your team.
• One clear directive can shift the entire room. You don’t need to get louder—you need to stop apologizing.
• Your business reflects your standards. Don’t let vague expectations drive your operations.

Are you holding it all together while quietly falling apart?

In this raw and radically honest milestone episode, Dawn Andrews peels back the curtain and shares what it really took to hit 100 episodes—while living through the most unrelenting year of her life. We're talking an 89% business drop, a full rebrand, marathon training, eldercare chaos, and teen parenting drama.

This is not your tidy “12 leadership tips” post. It’s a masterclass in what leadership looks like when you're building in the middle of the storm.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re barely holding it together behind the scenes while trying to lead with grace in public—this one’s for you.

Key Takeaways

• Real leadership doesn’t look perfect. It looks like showing up in fuzzy robes, uncertain, but present.
• Visibility isn’t about performance—it's about truth. You can’t teach leadership from behind the curtain.
• Delegation without clarity is just stress disguised as progress. The turning point? Simple systems and clear ownership.
• AI isn’t therapy—but it can save your sanity. When life fell apart, ChatGPT became a midnight thought partner.
• Letting go isn’t a moment. It’s a muscle. Personal and professional transformation require daily, messy, imperfect release.
