In this episode of Behind the Title, I’m joined by Emma Bain, Chief Operating Officer at TLC Worldwide, for a conversation that strips away the polished veneer and gets honest about what senior leadership really feels like.
This is an episode about vulnerability without oversharing. About strength without pretending. And about the quiet pressure so many leaders carry without ever naming.
We talk about:
• Having a phobia of public speaking in a senior role
• Leading through Covid while going through IVF and saying nothing
• Why “imposter syndrome” might not actually be a syndrome at all
• The pressure to look composed while feeling anything but
What stood out most wasn’t the job title, it was the permission to stop labelling normal human feelings as failure.
If you’ve ever thought “Why do I still feel like this?” this conversation might change how you see yourself.
