In this episode of Leadership is Feminine, Kris Plachy introduces a profound and necessary conversation: What does it mean to be a well-resourced woman?
Kris explores the essential resources women need—not just financially, but in energy, time, self-trust, and personal agency. She challenges listeners to examine how they advocate for themselves, manage their businesses, and take ownership of their decisions. Too often, women downplay their needs, defer their power, or operate on empty, believing they must do it all alone. But what if the key to unstoppable leadership lies in becoming truly well-resourced?
Kris shares personal stories and reflections that have shaped her belief in the power of self-trust and financial agency. She urges women to ask themselves: Do I truly understand my finances? Am I managing my energy effectively? Do I trust myself in decision-making, even when others don’t? Through this discussion, she highlights the necessity of prioritizing your own growth, support, and well-being in order to lead with clarity and strength.
This episode is a call to rethink how you resource yourself—as a leader, a business owner, and a woman. Kris challenges you to take ownership of your energy, time, and financial agency, so you can lead with confidence and impact.
