    Managing up is one of the most powerful career accelerators you can master—and it all starts with empathy. Not just empathy flowing downward from leaders to teams, but empathy for your leaders: understanding their pressures, challenges, and decision-making context so you can build trust, influence outcomes, and create mutual success.Given multiple generations in the workforce, we need empathy flowing up for leaders dealing with added pressures and mental health issues right now.

  • Jen Marr: Own the Awkward to be a Better Leader
    Dec 23 2025
    Technology has always been a double-edged sword. As the workplace and culture shift, we as humans are seeing more collaboration, access, and the ability to communicate across borders. But, it's also leading us to more stress, anxiety, depression, and social isolation. Those dopamine hits are no joke!This all impacts how we need leaders to show up and lead. We have to upskill our leaders for more connection, conversation, and collaboration. AI will be taking over a lot of the drudgery, so leadership now looks different from what it did 20 or 30 years ago. And for some leaders, there is a big skill gap between intent and impact. Something my guest today calls the Awkward Zone as she helps leaders to Own the Awkward.Today, Jen Marr shares the three forces behind our fundamental workplace shifts and how this has changed the role of leaders. She talks about that Awkward Zone and how to navigate through it. She shares the Barbell concept, necessary to build up healthy, productive employees. We have an interesting discussion about time - how leaders track it, spend it, and can find more ways to spend it on their people rather than on useless tasks. And Jen shares what may finally shake us up from the unhealthy ways tech has taken over our lives at the cost of real connection, and what that flashpoint might be for us. To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…The three major trends that are fundamentally shifting the workplace.How to foster a healthy workplace with operational empathy and actionable steps.Why actions, not nouns, frame lasting change so we can better handle our emotions.How time tracking can help you be a more supportive leader. "The awkward zone is that gap between our intent and our impact. Within that is a whole series of different habits, mindsets, and behaviors that get in our way." — Jen MarrAbout Jen Marr, Founder & CEO, Showing Up LLCJen Marr helps leaders Own the Awkward - the high-stakes moments that decide whether people stay or stray.

  • Jamie Lee: Rewire Your Brain with Empathy to Better Stand Up For Yourself
    Dec 16 2025
    What if the key to self-advocacy wasn’t being louder—but rewiring how you think, feel, and connect with empathy?Today, I’m joined by executive coach and podcast host Jamie Lee, who specializes in helping women and underrepresented leaders rise through the ranks without compromising their integrity. We dive into how empathy and neuroplasticity form the foundation of effective self-advocacy — and how rewiring internal narratives can lead to greater confidence, deeper connection, and clarity when speaking up. Jamie shares evidence-based techniques for regulating the nervous system so you can show up with presence and poise in high-stakes conversations. Plus, we touch on the six types of intelligence you can access to build connections and ask for what you want.If you’ve ever struggled with self-advocacy or want to communicate with more impact and empathy, this episode is for you.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…Defining self-advocacy and neuroplasticity in terms of empathy. Compassion as an action is the key to rewiring your brain. Ways to access your parasympathetic nervous system in your thinking brain and get out of your automatic stress response.Leveraging mirror neurons with empathy and compassion. "The brain adapts. The brain grows. It changes according to the practices that you expose it to.
