In this episode, executive coach and former dermatology PA Kasey D’Amato breaks down what it really means to lead with both data and emotional intelligence. She shares how 20 years in clinical practice, launching three businesses, and serving as a fractional chief of staff shaped her “head–heart–gut” decision framework and her philosophy of self-leadership before team leadership. Kasey and Justin explore emotional weight, burnout, resilience, and why knowing your own Polaris point is essential if you want to build a business, a career, and a life that actually aligns with who you are.​
Kasey also walks through her four leadership quadrants (industry, business, self, team) and offers practical ways founders and senior leaders can build support systems, “three whos,” and coaching relationships so they stop feeling alone at the top. If you’ve ever felt trapped in your role, misaligned with a leader above you, or unclear on what you truly want, this conversation will help you get honest, grounded, and moving again.
