In this reflective season finale, Lisa looks back on the first four months of the Empowered to Lead podcast — the growth, the surprises, the learning curves, and the themes that kept surfacing across every conversation. She shares what she’s learned as a leader, a coach, and a new podcast host, and invites listeners to consider where they’re being stretched and how they might “winter” in their own leadership. With warmth and honesty, Lisa closes out Season One and offers a glimpse into what’s coming in Season Two.

What You’ll Hear:

• Why Season One was full of lessons, unexpected growth, and meaningful conversations
• The major themes that showed up repeatedly across interviews
• What Lisa learned about leadership from hosting her first season
• The importance of being intentional, slowing down, and creating space
• Reflections from Wintering by Katherine May and how they apply to group practice owners
• How to prepare yourself for Season Two’s deeper leadership work
• Your leadership challenge for the break between seasons

Meet the Host: Lisa Catallo

Lisa is a Canadian psychotherapist, group practice owner, and business coach with over eight years of experience leading a thriving, values-driven practice. She works with therapists who are ready to step into their role as confident, ethical, and intentional leaders—without burning out or getting buried in the day-to-day.

Lisa’s coaching focuses on building sustainable group practices through efficient systems, effective leadership, and a deep respect for time and energy. Her approach is calm and encouraging, offering grounded guidance that helps therapists move from overwhelm to clarity—so they can lead with confidence and purpose.

Whether she’s supporting someone just starting to grow a team or helping a seasoned leader reclaim their role as CEO, Lisa brings a blend of insight, structure, and heart to everything she does.

When she’s not coaching or connecting with therapists, you’ll find her hanging out with her children and grandchildren, reading, walking by the water, or dreaming up new ways to make business feel a little lighter.
