Send us Fan MailWhat happens when a top-tier corporate executive realizes that a non-fiction leadership book is... well, a bit boring? They turn to fiction to tell the real truth.In this episode, Kelly sits down with Karen Ann Bulluck, the first woman EVP at AM Best Company and founder of DARING TO TRANSCEND®. We dive deep into her Ascending Ladders series—a trilogy that captures the messy, beautiful, and often lonely reality of women in leadership. From navigating AI and trust to the power of meditation in the boardroom, Karen shows us that "climbing the ladder" doesn't have to mean losing your humanity. Key Takeaways from the Conversation:The "Cheryl" Factor: Why relatable, imperfect characters teach us more about leadership than polished case studies.The Spirituality Gap: How incorporating meditation and visualization isn’t just "woo-woo"—it’s a competitive advantage for high-stakes decision-making.Trust in the Age of AI: Exploring the themes of Karen’s newest book, Embracing Trust, and how leaders maintain a "human first" culture as technology evolves.The Loneliness of the Climb: A candid discussion on the emotional labor and isolation women face in the C-suite—and how to find your community.Kelly has already devoured books one and two of this must read trilogy!
