🎙️ 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.

Hello Hello Hello! I am so glad you are tuning in for my 10th Episode! This one is slightly different in that we are looking at 10 specific things the may be keeping you in a cycle of grief or defeat. These 10 things are all things that I have experienced one time or another and things that I used as excuses. I do not want you to fall into the same traps or stay in a place that is NOT serving you. I want you to reclaim your identity, your purpose, your confidence- YOUR LIFE. It's time to reclaim your strength and step out of the things holding you back!
My name is Tami and I am a Restoration and Confidence Coach. I am a Marriage and Family therapist turned life coach and I love it. I love working with women (and a few men) who want more from life- who are ready to move their tragedy from the center of their story to just being part of their story and reclaiming their identity. If you connect with anything that I'm saying, I would love to talk with you.

Mama! You are SO hard on yourself. We put these crazy expectations on ourselves to do everything and to get everything right. We have to work on letting those unrealistic expectations go (am I alone in this or do you agree?). How we talk to ourselves sets the tone for what we are capable of. We will never see a way out of our situation or predicament if we do not give ourselves some grace and stop being judgmental. In this episode, I give you some ideas of other ways to talk to yourself. So listen in and see if we can start to rise above what we are going through and gain the confidence and identity we desire. All by asking ourselves a few questions...

Today's episode is a doozy! So many times we allow ourselves to be put in the victim category and we are NOT the victim. We are the hero we just need to claim our cape. Whether you have been through a loss and are now a widow, whether you have gone through a divorce and now a single mom, or lost a job, a dream, your identity- YOU can choose to rise up from the ashes allow something beautiful to erupt. In today's episode, I talk about why it is important to really claim your identity as a hero- as someone who has been through adversity and trials BUT overcame them with grace, kindness, and love. Lean on your people until you are strong enough to stand and be leaned on.

Do you ever get to the end of the day and feel like you have been busy all day and haven't accomplished anything- yea me neither ;) . Actually, I use to be really hard on myself and feel like that was my daily pattern. I have good intentions for good habits, daily habit-building that enriches my soul and enhances my life- but life gets in the way. The daily activity of taking care of kids and keeping up with the household chores just take over our world. That's ok! But the truth is- YOU ARE accomplishing more than you realize. Today I talk about how small wins lead to big breakthroughs. I talk about celebrating each thing you do and building a life you are proud of- one step at a time.

Burn out is so real. As a mom (single or attached) we wear so many hats. We have so many priorities that we have to take care of that we get in the habit of taking care of everyone else before we take care of ourselves! Well, Friend, listen to today's episode and discover the real harm that not taking care of yourself can have, but you will also see the benefits of just spending a few moments a day on yourself. I have 13 ways to start taking care of yourself- even if you have no time, money, energy, or you don't see it as important. I hope you see that a little goes a long way. Self-care is really all about the relationship you have with yourself. It's time to nurture the relationship.
Bible Verses from this Episode:
Self Care importance -1Corinthians 6:19-20, 3 John 1:2, 1 Corinthians 3:16, Romans 12:1-2, 1 Corinthians 10:31
Rest- Hebrews 4:9-11, Mark 6:31
Burnout- Proverbs 11:17
When you just CAN'T- Phillipians 4:13

Do you ever feel like your feelings control you? Do you want to change how you feel about a circumstance but don't know how? This episode is for you. Today I go through a coaching technique that I use with my clients. You will learn a practical tool that you can really explore your thoughts and feelings about a circumstance and then CHOOSE how you want to think and feel about it. This exercise can be done in a matter of moments once you know how it works. We explore what it means to have a fixed vs a growth mindset and why it is important. Listen in and grab a pen and paper- let's start to be intentional about our thoughts and choose the feelings we want to have about the things we go through.

Hey!!! It's finally here. Ok so you may have only know about this for a week (or less) but for me this has been something I have been working on for months. Sometimes it takes longer than one would like to actually get the courage to take the visible step out. What I can promise is this is from my heart and I really feel like this is the next step for me (and my business). I can also promise I will get better with time. I want you to find hope in my story. I want you to feel connected and not alone. We all go through hard things and I don't mean to sound trite. Loss of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job or dream is more than "a thing" but really I want to focus on the fact that you have been through it...you are on the other side of it- now it's time to take the steps to heal your spirit.
