🎙️ A Leader’s Purpose with Tami Imlay
The podcast for leaders who’ve outgrown surface-level success and are ready for soul-level impact.
You’ve built the career, led the teams, checked the boxes—and yet, you’re still asking, “Is this really it?”
Welcome to the space where high-achieving, faith-driven leaders come to get honest, get clear, and get aligned.
Hosted by executive coach, speaker, and Master Certified Enneagram and NeuroCoach Tami Imlay, this show helps you rise into your next season with confidence, clarity, and purpose—without burning out, starting over, or chucking it all and moving to Bali (tempting as that sounds).
With 20+ years of leadership experience—including military service, therapy and neuroscience training, and coaching high-level entrepreneurs and executives—Tami brings both strategy and soul to the mic. After becoming a Gold Star Spouse and walking through her own identity shift, she made it her mission to help other leaders do the same: step into a life and leadership that actually feels like you.
Each episode blends truth-telling with tangible tools—expect a little sass, a lot of heart, and zero tolerance for performative leadership. We’ll cover topics like:
✨ Identity clarity & self-awareness using the Enneagram
🧠 Neuroscience-backed tools to rewire limiting beliefs
🎯 Purpose-aligned business and leadership strategy
🧭 Navigating transitions, pivots, and legacy-defining moves
🧘 Burnout recovery and sustainable success
💬 Authentic communication & emotional intelligence
🙏 Faith and leadership integration that doesn’t feel cheesy
If you’re circling your calling, craving deeper impact, or just tired of pretending everything’s fine when you’re quietly questioning what’s next—this podcast is for you.
Because here’s the truth:
✅ You don’t need another strategy. You need identity clarity.
✅ You’re not behind—you’re right on time.
✅ You already have what it takes. You just need to remember who you are.
This is your permission to rise—without losing yourself in the process.

Your team is capable. You know that better than anyone. So when everything keeps routing back through you, the instinct is to look at them. More delegation. Better processes. Clearer expectations.
None of that is the real fix.
In this episode, I name the one thing your team is missing and why giving it to them changes every conversation after it.
INSIDE THE EPISODE
The signal most leaders misread
When your team keeps bringing things back to you, it is not about their capability. It is about information. I break down what that signal is actually telling you.
The story that changed how I see this
One leader. One meeting. A team that went from routing everything through her to running three steps ahead. Here is exactly what she did and what shifted.
The picture you are carrying that your team does not have
You have been in every closed-door meeting. You carry the full strategic context. Your team carries the task. That gap is where the routing lives, and it is smaller to close than you think.
What Monday looks like on the other side
I paint the inbox you actually want. The messages that come in when your team has what they need to trust their own read on the situation.
WHAT TO TAKE WITH YOU
- Your team is not coming back to you because they cannot handle it. They are coming back because they do not have what they need to trust their own judgment on the call.
- The leaders who stop being the answer to everything are not better at delegating. They are better at sharing the picture.
- The context your team is missing is probably already in your head. You just forgot they did not have it.
SIT WITH THIS
What strategic context are you carrying in your head that your team does not have? Not because you are protecting it. Because it never occurred to you that they did not already have it, or that they needed it.
