What if the real reason you feel stuck isn’t your strategy, your team, or your execution—but your identity?
In this episode of the Badass Leaders Podcast, Angela Gill Nelms sits down with Hilary Porta, identity and performance expert, to unpack what actually drives leadership behavior, decision-making, and long-term success. This conversation goes beyond mindset and into the subconscious patterns, nervous system responses, and internal beliefs that quietly shape how leaders show up.
Hilary shares how high performers unknowingly sabotage their own growth, why traditional leadership development often falls short, and what it really takes to scale a business without losing yourself in the process.
