This is part 2 of a 4-part conversation on the work leaders need to do to incorporate belonging in the workplace with author and research Dr. Beth Kaplan. Each episode explores a different theme—clarity, self-awareness, team dynamics, and workplace culture.

Before we can lead others into belonging, we need to start with ourselves. This episode explores how self-worth, trauma, and emotional safety play a foundational role in how we show up as leaders. We look at the internal work required to foster belonging—not as a reward for performance, but as a decision to value who we are.

🎙️ With personal and research-backed insight from author and researcher Dr. Beth Kaplan.

What you’ll hear:

A powerful story of burnout and survival
Why belonging can’t be earned through overwork
How workplace PTSD travels with us
The self-awareness required for true leadership
