Most professionals know how to act like leaders — confident voice, polished presence, solid résumé. But what happens when your energy doesn’t match your words?

In this episode of UnCeiling You, Dr. Natalie Luke sits down with Katherine Lazaruk, leadership and presence coach, to explore how authentic leadership development begins from the inside out.

Katherine shares practical strategies to stop performing confidence and start embodying calm authority — building real confidence at work that inspires trust. Together, they reveal how alignment between your inner truth and outer presence unlocks genuine career advancement and sustainable influence.

🎧 Listen now to learn how women in leadership can lead from congruence — not control.

🧠 Try This Exercise
Before your next meeting or presentation, take 10 seconds to pause.
Rub your hands together gently, inhale slowly, and exhale longer than you inhale.
Ask yourself:

• “What part of me am I protecting right now?” That question alone can shift you from performing confidence to embodying calm authority.
