Signal. Opportunity. Choice. How to Lead with Emotional Intelligence

In today's episode of Counsel Culture, we welcome the incomparable Cassandra Worthy, a former corporate executive turned global keynote speaker and founder of Change Enthusiasm® Global.

Cassandra brings unmatched energy as we talk about real change, real emotions, and the real work it takes to grow through adversity. From navigating multi-billion-dollar M&A activity to facing her own battle with alcoholism, Cassandra's story is one of grit, grace, and a powerful mindset that she now teaches leaders worldwide:
Signal. Opportunity. Choice.

We talk about:

• What it means to embrace the "suck" and find purpose in uncertainty

• How to use emotional energy as a leadership superpower

• The role of mentorship, vulnerability, and relationship capital in navigating change

• Building authentic human connections in an increasingly AI-driven world

• Why empathy and presence are no longer "soft skills"—they're essential

Whether you're navigating layoffs, acquisitions, or just trying to lead more effectively—this episode is a masterclass in emotional intelligence and change leadership.

This show is dedicated to Cassandra's journey, this conversation is what we make it. This, is Counsel Culture!
