Speak Up or Stay Stuck 

Apr 29, 2026 GrowthReady Podcast w/ Steve Mellor

Leadership development starts when your voice matches what you know, especially in the moments that matter. If you’ve got the expertise but hesitate to speak up, this episode will help you build presence, confidence, and clarity under pressure. What if the thing holding you back isn’t a lack of expertise, but the fact that your voice hasn’t caught up to what you know? In this conversation, Steve Mellor sits down with Dr. Leslie Gordon to explore:

▪️How confidence is built (and rebuilt) in real time

▪️Presence: what it is, what it isn’t, and how to access it

▪️Why high-performers go quiet when stakes rise

▪️Listen if you’re leading, growing, or stepping into bigger rooms.
