My guest today is Linda Zink, President and Chief Commercial Officer at Wellness Natural, the company behind SimplyProtein. Linda brings decades of experience across some of the world’s most recognized brands, from Kellogg and Clorox to smaller, high-growth organizations. Her perspective on leadership and life is both grounded and practical, shaped by years of navigating change, building teams, and growing businesses in constantly evolving environments.
I absolutely loved my conversation with Linda for so many reasons including how her stories are filled such practical gems. One that I liked the most is how Linda and her kids made breakfast sacred as opposed to making dinner sacred which was and still is what many try to do.
Other key takeaways among many include:
- Careers are rarely linear. Growth often comes through unexpected turns, pivots, and “zigzags” along the way.
- Balance is not about equal distribution. It shifts constantly depending on the season of our lives, and that is part of the process.
- Giving ourselves grace, especially during demanding periods, can change how we experience both work and life.
Please enjoy this insightful and honest conversation with Linda about leadership, growth, and finding a way of working and living that fits you.
