In this episode of Alignment First, I sit down with Gina Catalano, founder of Venture Solutions and author of Tandem Leadership: How Your Number Two Can Make You Number One. We explore how releasing old identities and building operational harmony can help leaders grow without losing themselves.
Key Takeaways
- Growth requires releasing what no longer serves you.
- True freedom means designing life, not chasing “more.”
- Balance is a myth—seek harmony instead.
- Every leader needs a trusted mirror to see what’s really happening.
- Your business should serve your life, not the other way around.
