In this episode of The Executive Hustle Podcast, Mary Oliveira and Kirsten dive into a ‘decade of discovery’ and what that can mean for a leader in transition. Mary has an amazing story from a history banking, to being a living organ donor, to a non-profit leader – she will hit home with just about anyone in the #hustle. 

We explore the ‘emotional elevator’ that can hijack so many young leaders, we share our mutual journeys of learning how being friendly as a young boss is not the same as being 'a friend' and finally Mary offers her current secret sauce to success- an intention of curiosity.
