In this episode of Leadership is Feminine, Kris Plachy shares a powerful reminder: your body is the vessel for your leadership, your dreams, and your impact—and it deserves your full attention.
Kris explores what it means to be physically well-resourced as a woman in leadership, especially as we navigate the transitions of our 40s and 50s. Health and energy aren’t luxuries—they’re the foundation. “Your body is the thing to take care of so that all of these visions that you have… all of the things that you want to achieve… you need your body to be able to do that.”
A key practice Kris shares—originally introduced in the book Co-Active Coaching by Thomas Leonard—is what she calls the “clean sweep.” This exercise invites you to take an intentional walk-through of your home, using a detailed punch list to identify and remove sources of energetic drain. By consciously clearing your physical space, you also create more room for clarity, ease, and inspiration. It’s a simple practice that reveals just how much we’ve been tolerating—and how good it feels to finally let go.
This episode is an invitation to listen more closely to your body, to curate an environment that supports your vitality, and to reclaim the kind of energy that fuels sustainable success. This episode is also a check-in: are you taking care of your body maintenance? Do you have a physician and a team to help you stay on top of your physical health? Leadership starts within—and tending to your physical health and energetic hygiene is one of the most profound ways to lead with strength and authenticity.
