In today’s episode of Leading Her Way, Nikisha is joined by Angie Lion from Black River Performance to explore how emotional intelligence transforms team dynamics, client experiences, and long-term business growth.
If you’re a creative entrepreneur, small business owner, or CEO trying to build a strong, connected team or gain the trust of potential clients, this conversation is your next step.
You’ll learn:
- What emotional intelligence (EQ) really is and why it’s different from IQ
- How to recognize when your team members are silently struggling
- How entrepreneurs often lose trust without realizing it—and how to rebuild it
- Why client trust starts long before the pitch
- How boundaries, feedback, and compassion shape high-performing cultures
Plus, Nikisha shares real scenarios from her business and coaching work, like managing grief in contractors and how to support your team while growing your empire.
