In this episode of The SAFE Leader Podcast, Mark McBride-Wright sits down with executive coach and leadership strategist Yosi Kossowsky to explore a remarkable journey of growth and transformation. From starting out with no clear plan, to discovering a passion for computers and technology, Yosi shares the twists and turns that shaped his early career. He reflects on the challenges of moving from technical expertise into leadership, and the powerful lessons he learned when feedback revealed that emotional intelligence, not just technical skill, was the missing piece.
The conversation dives into vulnerability, self-awareness, and the hard but rewarding work of uncovering limiting beliefs. Yosi opens up about his experiences with emotional wellness practices, the importance of embracing the full range of human emotions, and the wisdom of learning to enjoy the journey rather than rushing toward goals. Honest, insightful, and inspiring, this episode offers leaders a fresh perspective on growth, resilience, and leading with both head and heart.
