The emPOWERed Half Hour
Most leadership training skips this part. Dysregulated people get dysregulated results. Regulated people get radiant lives.
I'm Becca Powers—strategic sales leader, nervous system leadership expert, and USA TODAY bestselling author. The emPOWERed Half Hour is the leadership conversation I needed while leading high-performance teams, raising 4 kids, and meeting impossible expectations. On the outside, I was crushing it. On the inside, I was crumbling.
What You'll Learn: This podcast explores what happens when life and leadership collide, and powering through stops working.
Through the lens of nervous system science and trauma-informed leadership, we tackle the hard stuff:
* Why high performers micromanage when they want to empower
* How constant pressure creates reactive leadership and burnout
* What sustainable high performance actually requires
* How to regulate your nervous system under pressure
* Building teams that perform without burning out
What to Expect: Solo episodes and conversations with leaders, experts, and authors bringing real insight and hard-earned wisdom. No generic advice. Real talk, practical strategies, and ideas that actually empower you to lead differently.
This Show Is For: Leaders, executives, individual contributors, and business owners who care about results AND people. If you want leadership conversations that change how you lead and live, you're in the right place.

The emPOWERed Half Hour
Episode 28: Show Up, Shine Bright, and Achieve Abundant Success with Founder and Author, Allison Walsh
She believed she could.
And so she did!
That’s Allison Walsh’s mantra in life. And that belief never failed to open opportunities for her.
Allison’s origin story started when she was 18—she started a nonprofit organization that was able to help thousands of people. From then on, she never stopped seizing opportunities not only for herself but also for others, allowing them to recognize their potential and to fully optimize it.
Allison is also a firm believer that you don’t need to wait for one season of your life to end to go get your dreams—that is, you don’t need to retire or wait toward the end of your career before you jump and pursue your passion. It’s all about getting that clarity and desire to meet at the right time.
And so when desire and clarity finally intersected in Allison’s life, she jumped in and took on another role up her shoulders—being a writer.
In her book, She Believed She Could: Show Up, Shine Bright, and Achieve Abundant Success, Allison memorializes her 20+ years of experience and accumulated knowledge from being an expert business consultant, international speaker and podcaster, and influential leader.
Tune in to this episode to know how “believing that she could” really allowed Allison to conquer the things that she really wanted and are in alignment with her core, true self.
