Brazen and Bold Podcast featuring Jay Williams

When you think about leadership, you might picture sharp suits, big decisions, and laser-focused strategy. But this week on Brazen and Bold, we’re asking you to zoom in on something more personal, more powerful, and often overlooked—emotional intelligence.

In this fresh episode, Heather Harris sits down with renowned leadership coach Jay Williams to unpack what it really takes to lead like a boss. Spoiler: it’s not about being born with “the right stuff.” It’s about learning to understand emotions (yours and everyone else’s)and using that awareness to lead with clarity, empathy, and confidence.

Jay dives into the practical side of emotional intelligence, showing how it impacts everything from decision-making and team dynamics to client retention and long-term growth. If you’ve ever wondered why some leaders seem to inspire loyalty while others struggle to keep their team aligned, this episode has answers.

This conversation is a must-listen for:

  • Salon owners looking to build stronger cultures and more connected teams
  • Managers and team leaders who want to improve communication and performance
  • Entrepreneurs and creatives ready to lead with more heart and less burnout
  • Anyone trying to level up their leadership skills in a real, sustainable way

You’ll leave this episode feeling equipped, inspired, and ready to lead in a way that actually works—because it connects.
