The vibe we feel at work has a significant impact on culture. Whether we’re working on the vibe or not, it’s happening and either elevating or harming workplace culture. Vibecast is a podcast that inspires positive vibes at work through stories and lessons, both the positive and negative experiences, shared by exceptional leaders.
Sometimes the most productive thing a leader can do is stop doing.
Kristi sits down with Rosie Ward, CEO and co-founder of Salveo Partners, to explore what happens when we trade autopilot for intentionality. Rosie shares what she discovered while taking on the 75 Vibes challenge, including why connection is the first thing she loses when life gets busy, how “human doing” gets in the way of human being, and why the practices meant to help us should never become another stressful checkbox.
From setting healthier boundaries to creating psychological safety through “F-Up Fridays,” Rosie reveals how small, deliberate practices can reshape the way leaders show up for themselves and their teams. The takeaway is simple but powerful: pause before you react, question the story you’re telling yourself, and create enough space to lead like a human.
