This Changes Things

by Shoshanna Hecht

Are you driving your own life and career — or getting dragged along? That's the question at the heart of This Changes Things, a podcast about leadership, relationships, and what it actually takes to show up, at work, at home, and everywhere in between. Each week, host Shoshanna Hecht — an executive and leadership coach, drawing on two decades as a therapist and coach — sits down with a founder, a leader, a thinker she wants to learn from, and gets past the version they've told a hundred times to what matters most to them: the real decisions behind how they got here, and where they're headed now. Whatever they bring — a business they built, a book they wrote, a life they rebuilt — they get into it together, and into what it can offer the rest of us. Again and again, one thing surfaces: you don't have to hit a breaking point to change course and start leading & living like you mean it, it begins the moment you decide it does. It's the same conversation Shoshanna has with her clients every day: honest, specific, and on your side. You'll come away a little clearer on what matters to you, and a lot less alone in figuring out what to do about it. Whether you lead a company, a team, a partnership, or your own life, there's something here for you. New episodes weekly — the next chapter of the podcast formerly known as Your New Life Blend.
