Welcome to The Authentic Edge.
In this special Episode 0, we introduce you to the host of the series, Dr. Desiree Beekharry—conflict specialist, leadership facilitator, and founder of Manage the Conflict. In conversation with Marissa Hankinson, Desiree shares the personal and professional experiences that shaped her voice and her mission, offering listeners an honest look behind the title.
This episode isn’t just about what Desiree does—it’s about why she does it. From navigating identity in male-dominated spaces to earning a doctorate just to be heard, this conversation covers the emotional weight of “fitting in,” the power of profiling in building authentic teams, and the risks we take in the pursuit of alignment and purpose.
You’ll hear Desiree reflect on:
The internal conflict of wearing a “mask” to belong
Why she believes rejection is a necessary step toward growth
Her ACE model: Authenticity, Conflict, Emotional Intelligence
The personal cost of playing small—and the breakthrough of choosing courage
Through candid storytelling and a touch of humour, Desiree sets the tone for the episodes to come—conversations that invite you to lead, speak, and live from your most authentic self.
Future episodes will explore these themes in more depth with guests from all walks of life who’ve dared to live on the edge of real, vulnerable leadership.
