Stories are powerful. This storytelling podcast was founded to reconnect with the leadership heritage of America. By bringing the stories of extraordinary leaders to life, we make them accessible to anyone seeking to lead with purpose. It is built on the belief that leadership becomes richer and more meaningful when it reflects the full spectrum of experiences that have shaped our nation. By rediscovering the lives, decisions, and defining moments of past American leaders, Elaine seeks to inspire a new generation to lead with greater depth and perspective.
