In this episode of the Small Brave Moves podcast, we’re exploring something that might seem like a luxury—but is actually a leadership necessity: Flow and Ease®.
If you’re a high-achieving leader who’s feeling overwhelmed, overbooked, or stretched thin, this conversation is for you. Because here’s the truth: hustle doesn’t equal impact. And letting go of control doesn’t mean letting go of your standards.
We'll be discussing:
- What Flow and Ease® actually means in the context of brave leadership
- Why micromanagement is often fear in disguise
- The surprising leadership edge of emotional regulation and grounded energy
- Small, brave shifts that create clarity, calm, and powerful ripple effects
- How to stop contributing to the chaos—and start leading from a place of presence
You don’t have to prove your worth through burnout. Your clarity, calm, and boundaries aren’t soft—they’re strategic. And when you lead with flow, your team rises with you.
Plus, Nicole shares an exclusive invitation to podcast listeners to attend a transformational leadership experience designed to help executive women reclaim their energy, amplify their light, and elevate their leadership.
If you’re ready to stop gripping so tightly and start leading with more trust, intentionality, and energy—without losing your drive—this one’s for you.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
