Thank you for tuning in to my conversation with Jess Dewell. If you’re here, you’re probably thinking about what it means to run your business with real intention: not just reacting to what’s in front of you, but building the kind of strategic clarity that holds up when things get hard.
The Bold Business Podcast exists for exactly that. Jess brings a sharp, no-nonsense lens to leadership and growth, focused on the skills that actually move the needle: asking better questions, solving problems without expensive solutions, and taking bold action even when the path isn’t clear. That framing resonated with me because it’s what we coach at SparkEffect every day.
The best leaders aren’t the ones who outwork the chaos. They’re the ones who build organizations that don’t depend on them to hold everything together. That kind of bold, sustainable leadership? It doesn’t happen by accident. It’s a practice.
