Lead Through It with Kim and Jada
If you're leading a team or an organization through something hard right now, you're in the right place.
Jada Willis and Kim Andrews are the co-hosts of Lead Through It. They’re here because leadership gets lonely, and they want to make it less so. Every week, they bring you stories about how other leaders are doing it, practical tips and tools you can use right away, and their signature wit and charm.
In an alternate universe, Jada and Kim are competitors. But they decided collaborating would be much more fun. Kim spent 15 years inside schools and nonprofits and now helps leaders build strong teams, make tough decisions, and get stuff done without burning out. Jada built a seven-figure HR firm from nothing, sold it, and now helps leaders turn chaos into clarity, fueled by a lot of faith and grit. They’ve had different paths but share the values that matter most.
If *it* is hitting the fan, we’ve got you. Let's lead through it together.

Lead Through It with Kim and Jada
Ep. 35 Part 1 - Behind the Curtain in Coaching
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Lead Through It, Jada and Kim pull back the curtain on the kinds of conversations showing up in real coaching sessions right now. From overwhelmed leaders and overextended managers to team members who need clearer expectations, they unpack why so many leadership challenges start with the same root issue: the leader carrying too much.
Together, they talk about burnout, boundaries, self-leadership, and the power of small experiments that help leaders create space before everything falls apart. This episode is honest, practical, and deeply relatable for anyone who has felt stretched too thin while still trying to show up well for their team.
Part one sets the stage for a deeper conversation about the simple but powerful leadership tool they both found themselves recommending to clients. Before getting there, Jada and Kim remind listeners that progress does not have to be perfect. Sometimes the first step is one small shift, one intentional boundary, or one tiny win that helps you feel like change is possible again.
If today’s conversation resonated, connect with us and be part of the community of leaders who refuse to lead alone.
