Front of the Pack Leadership with Vicki Tyler

On the latest episode of Baskets of Knowledge, we sat down with Vicki Tyler, a powerhouse in leadership, coaching, and human development , to unpack her incredible journey of resilience, self-discovery, and growth.Vicki’s story is deeply human. She spoke about her early years, the challenges of navigating identity and belonging, and how those experiences shaped her drive to create spaces where people feel seen and valued. What stood out most was her belief that leadership is not about authority, but about the ability to listen, and become a catalyst to empower and guide others to step into their full potential.One of the most powerful insights Vicki shared was about the "edge" where growth opportunities lie. She named her company The Grow Zone which represents that uncomfortable space where "what" happens meets "our response"  to it, as that is where growth occurs. While most of us shy away from the edge because it feels risky, Vicki reminds us that it’s exactly where transformation begins.Beyond her personal journey, Vicki is a strong advocate for women in leadership,  helping women step into their voices, back themselves, and break through barriers in environments where confidence can so often be tested. Her work highlights that when women rise, entire communities benefit. Her current "195 Campaign" asks the same question to a woman in leadership, in every country in the world. With perspectives learned, she will use the findings to benefit young women in leadership around the globe.In our conversation, she opened up about:Why authenticity is the foundation of leadership – when you show up as yourself, you give others permission to do the same.The importance of resilience – not as bouncing back, but as adapting and moving forward with new strength.Her passion for stepping intentionally into "grow zones" – the very places that challenge us most.The ongoing work of balancing ambition with self-compassion.This episode is packed with wisdom, inspiration, and practical insights for anyone on a journey of growth, whether you’re leading a team, a business, or yourself.Tune in to the full conversation with Vicki Tyler on Baskets of Knowledge, now live on Spotify and YouTube.EnjoyPrajesh and Tane
