As we step into a new year, many of us feel pressure to set goals, make plans, and figure everything out quickly. In this solo episode of Unfiltered Leadership, Lindsay Yellin invites you to slow down and return to what matters most before doing anything else. Values.Values are not aspirational. They are not what we think we should care about. They are the deeply held beliefs that describe who we already are. When we live out of alignment with them, we feel frustrated, depleted, or disconnected. When we live in alignment, decisions become clearer and leadership becomes more authentic.In this episode, Lindsay shares why values are the foundation of self leadership, how they shape your leadership style whether you realize it or not, and how to uncover and define your own values in a way that feels real and usable. This episode is the first in a series of short, focused solo conversations designed to strengthen your leadership foundation and help you lead with greater clarity, resilience, and integrity in the year ahead.Episode HighlightsWhy values matter more than goals at the start of a new yearWhat values actually are and what they are notHow misaligned values create frustration, burnout, and tensionUsing values as a compass for decision making and leadershipHow values shape your leadership style and personal brandWhy values evolve and how to stay in relationship with themHow to narrow your values to what truly matters nowA simple process to uncover and define your valuesLiving in integrity by aligning values, choices, and actionsAbout your host: Lindsay YellinLindsay Yellin is an executive leadership coach, dynamic speaker, and certified ACC and CPCC who helps high-achieving creative leaders trade fear for possibility and self-doubt for self-trust.
