🎙️ 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.

Monday Jan 17, 2022
So many times we allow things like time and circumstances to pull us along. We become victims to what is around us instead of addressing what we want out of a situation. In today's episode, I talk about three of the most powerful "C" words. These words have the power to change our lives for the good or bad, or better. What could happen if we didn't allow changes or challenges to make the choices for us? What if we were able to decide what we wanted? If we decided to get curious about the opportunities and hope? What if we made a point to intentionally make choices for ourselves rather than letting things happen? Friend, it is time to find out!
Come and hang out with us at the "Learning To Thrive Through Your Grief in 2022" Meet up. This is for all broken-spirited women. You can't be broken-spirited without experiencing grief. What could your life look like in 2022 if you decided to thrive THROUGH it rather than stay stuck in your grief? Come join us Wed Jan 26 @ 2pm CST. Register right here! Invite your friends!!!!
Need community or a tribe? We have got you covered! This group is still new. We are building a group of women who want to heal, who want to encourage, and who WANT to live a life of joy. Come and be a part of our tribe and help us shape it into a beautiful and safe community to talk about the struggles of hardship while we are embracing the future God has for us. Join us on Facebook- Restoration and Confidence Support for Broken Spirited Women Come and see what full restoration could mean for you and change not only your life but allow it to ripple to those around you as well.

Today's episode was inspired by some questions and comments I saw from some widows. As I read their comments and listened to their hearts question if they will ever get through "it" and if they are doing "it" right...I realized that there are so many things we ask the same questions about. So even if you aren't a widow- listen to this episode and you can replace it with whatever your questions are. Take the permission slip and take walk the journey you need to walk. Friends and family (and of course the bossy lady down the street) well they all have opinions of how things should be done- or what they think things should look like. The reality is- they have not walked your walk. They do not know your struggles and your future. It is ok to not accept every piece of advice that someone offers! In fact- give yourself permission to say "I've got this"!!!! Take each day and take the steps to live! Once we are on this journey-- the destination is heaven...so don't try to bypass the present moment to get through to the next step.
I hope this episode brings you encouragement! It is a good reminder for myself as well!

How to Walk into 2022- With Your Head Held High with Confidence
Monday Jan 03, 2022
Monday Jan 03, 2022
I don't believe that confidence comes with success. I think if we expect success to help us build confidence then we are missing out on SOOO much growth and understanding. I think we should remove confidence from our actions completely! Confidence comes from the assurance of who we are and WHOSE we are! In this episode, we dive into little things you can do to start building your confidence RIGHT NOW! Don't wait for the right conditions or expect that it will just happen- "one day...I'll have the confidence to do XYZ, or to pull that off" Let's OWN It for 2022! Let's build the evidence we need to own the confidence that we already have inside us! You don't have to do it alone! Come join us in our private Facebook group (link below)! I can't wait to see you in there!

Wrapping Up 2021-Identify your Wins and Don’t Take Fear into 2022
Monday Dec 27, 2021
Monday Dec 27, 2021
I can't believe we are at the end of 2021. This year seemed to fly by but go slow all at the same time. Whew! What a YEAR. If you haven't taken the time yet to look back at 2021 and write down your wins- take this time now! Write down 10 wins (no matter the size) from 2021 and then do a happy dance for each one! Celebrate them!!! My guess is you have wins that are bigger than you expected.
Let's take a moment to also acknowledge the part fear played in your year...and bring it to light so it won't go into 2022 with you! Listen in and let's end this year well!

The holidays are hard. Ha! Did I even need to write that? Probably not. Not only are holidays hard but then to add grief on top of it. Friend- this time is hard. It is ok for it to be hard. You do not have to push down your feelings and pretend that you are "fine! fine! everything's fine". In today's episode, I just wanted to let you know I see you. I know how hard it is to be solo during the holidays where love prevails. I know what its like to walk in solo to a couples party and pretend that you fit right in (and want to fit in, these are your friends). I know what its like to have to change the way things are done to accommodate our new normal. If you are struggling and need to know you are not alone- listen in. This episode is for you.
I am super excited about a new opportunity coming! A Restoration Journey membership- listen in for some secret details and next week I'll share more!

I HATE hurting people's feelings. I hate making people feel bad. I know I'm not alone in this. But what do you do when you accidentally hurt someone's feelings inadvertently? What do you do when you are just joking around and didn't realize someone took it the wrong way? Is it worth losing the friendship? Should you stress about it and avoid them from now on? Of course not! But it does require us to set down our ego and grow. I recently made a comment to a new friend that was taken the wrong way (I honestly didn't know how it hurt her). She brought it to my attention (which I am super thankful for) and from it, I was able to grow. So in today's episode, I give you a very simple approach to fixing the wrongs. It may seem second nature- but sometimes as adults, we need to be reminded- I know I needed to. So learn from my mistake and my approach to fixing it. Save the friendship, grow as a person, and move on! Listen in!
