So Many Questions Podcast: Finding Your Leadership Style by Trusting Your Own Wiring with Guest Kara Brothers, Founder of New Juice Studios
See below for audio version
Early in a leadership career, it can feel like there’s a single “right” way to lead. But what happens when the leadership styles you see around you don’t feel natural?
In this episode of So Many Questions, Moses Singer CEO Rebecca Goodman-Stephens speaks with Kara Brothers, Founder of New Juice Studios and former President of Starface, about the process of discovering how you lead best.
Kara reflects on early moments in her career when she found herself observing more than speaking in leadership settings. Those experiences helped her realize that leadership doesn’t require copying someone else’s style. Instead, many leaders develop their voice through observation, experience, and learning when their perspective adds real value.
They also discuss Kara’s career path from Google to helping scale Starface from a small startup team into a global brand, and how those leadership experiences shaped her decision to launch her new venture, New Juice Studios.
