In this episode of On Air & Off Script, host Karyl Morris with strategic advisor and CEO of The Culture Cru, Alycia Huston, for a conversation about leadership, self-worth, and building businesses rooted in alignment.

With a Master of Science and years of experience helping organizations navigate workplace culture challenges, Alycia brings a unique neuroscience-based approach to leadership development. Her work focuses on strengthening emotional intelligence, building trust, and creating meaningful connections that help teams thrive.

Throughout the conversation, Alycia shares why one of the most important lessons she's learned is the power of choosing yourself. She discusses setting boundaries, learning to say "no" without guilt, and making decisions that align with your values rather than simply chasing the next dollar.

Who’s Alycia Huston?
Alycia Huston helps executive leaders strengthen the systems that build trust, alignment, and sustainable growth - so their teams perform and stay. She learned this firsthand as the founder of a biopharma company. She built a high-performing culture that fueled innovation, scaled operations, and led to a multimillion-dollar exit. That journey taught her the truth: operational excellence and people systems are inseparable. Today, as Founder & CEO of The Culture Cru, she partners with executives to align culture with strategy using evidence-based methods grounded in leadership, neuroscience, and emotional intelligence.

In this episode of On Air & Off Script, host Karyl Morris sits down with financial advisor, author, and publishing company owner Adam San Juan for a conversation centered on purpose, legacy, and intentional living.

Adam’s approach to both life and business became rooted in one core belief: everything should be done on purpose. Throughout the episode, Adam breaks down why understanding your “why” is essential, not just in finances, but in every decision you make. Whether he’s guiding clients through financial planning or helping aspiring authors bring their stories to life, his philosophy remains the same: move with intention, not by accident.

At the core of Adam’s work is a simple belief: good decisions start with clear understanding. Rather than jumping straight to solutions, he focuses on diagnosing what’s really going on—how a plan is built, how people are using it, and where gaps or inefficiencies exist. This allows him to provide guidance that is practical, relevant, and grounded in real-world behavior. What matters most in his work is helping people see things more clearly—whether that’s a business owner trying to improve their plan, or an individual trying to make sense of their financial path. His goal is not just to provide answers, but to create clarity, confidence, and direction in moments that often feel complex or overwhelming.
