Welcome back to the Grounding and Growing Leadership Podcast! This week, we’re giving you an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at our recent SHIFT Leadership Event! Join Pamela and Tara as they reflect on what made SHIFT such a powerful and meaningful experience, from the vision and planning to the incredible team and generous sponsors who helped bring it all to life.

They also dive into the joy of in-person connection, the power of laughter, and the intentional SHIFT that happened to everyone in the room. You won’t want to miss this celebration of community, leadership, and the magic that happens when people come together with purpose.

***And mark your calendars; SHIFT is coming back on May 14, 2026! We’re already dreaming big, and we’d love for you to be part of what’s next.***

At the Grounding and Growing Leadership podcast, we believe everyone is a leader and that leadership starts with you. Join Tara Gronhovd, Gallup Certified Clifton Strengths Coach and e2Grow High Performing Team Coach, and Pamela Nelson, Gallup Certified Clifton Strengths Coach, Counselor, and Spiritual Director, as we navigate conversations to grow you and your teams on your leadership journeys.    

CliftonStrengths (aka Strengthsfinder) is an assessment that is based on positive psychology and measures core motivations. It’s an extremely powerful tool for personal and professional development as well as improving team dynamics. You will hear us reference Strengths frequently in our podcasts. If you are interested in learning more and taking the CliftonStrengths assessment for you or your team, please reach out to tara@aligntransform.com.
