Leadership Beyond the Title is hosted by TaSheena Braxton, Executive Leadership & Team Coach, mother of four, and a woman who learned how to lead long before she ever held a formal title. This podcast is for leaders who know they're capable of more — with or without the job title to prove it. Every week, we disrupt the outdated belief that leadership is tied to hierarchy, proximity to power, or navigating corporate politics. Leadership isn't given. Leadership is shown — through impact, visibility, strategic relationships, and the courage to show up as who you are. I created this podcast because I know what it feels like to be overlooked, underestimated, or told (implicitly or explicitly) that you aren't a leader until someone grants you permission. And I also know what it looks like to lead anyway — to influence without authority, to build trust across teams, to navigate power dynamics, and to grow a reputation that gets you opportunities you were never 'supposed' to have. Inside this podcast, you'll learn how to: • Lead in any room — regardless of your title • Grow visibility without burning out • Build relationships that accelerate your career • Navigate identity, systems, and workplace politics with clarity • Position yourself as a leader people want to follow Our conversations will help you move from untapped, unseen, and under-recognized to someone who leads movements, shapes culture, and makes an undeniable impact — title or not. If you're ready to lead from who you are — not what your title says — you're in the right place. more
