158. Why You Don't Need a Job Title to Be a Leader w/ Becky @beckyschmooke

26 Jun 2025

Description

You don't have to be at the summit to start leading. In this episode, I sit down with author and leadership coach Becky Schmooke to talk about healing, self-leadership, and what it really means to take control of your life. Becky shares her 20+ year journey with an eating disorder and how her recovery—alongside her work in Stoic philosophy—inspired her to write Choose the Handle That Holds. We talk about redefining leadership (hint: it's not a job title), communicating clearly with your team and loved ones, and choosing the harder, healthier path—especially when it's uncomfortable. Whether you're managing a team, navigating recovery, or just trying to show up more fully in your life, this episode will leave you thinking deeply—and laughing just as much.   Tune in to hear: Becky's eating disorder journey and how it shaped her leadership work The Stoic philosophy that helped her finally recover during COVID How to choose the "handle that holds" when life feels out of control The leadership myths that keep entrepreneurs stuck Tools for communicating better with your team, your partner, and yourself   Connect with Becky: Instagram: @beckyschmooke Website: https://www.beckyschmooke.com/ Order your copy of Choose the Handle That Holds   Connect with Deanna: Instagram: @dietitiandeanna and @online.entrepreneur.academy Want my help and strategies to have $30, $50 or $100K launches of your online program? Apply to OEA Scale
