In Episode 151 of the Mindset Architect Podcast, Tony Caliendo welcomes special guest Janis Milham, former Senior Vice President and Global Brand Leader at Marriott International turned Executive Leadership Performance Coach at Questage. Janis opens up about her 32-year corporate journey, sharing how an unexpected question from an HR executive forced her to pause, evaluate her trajectory, and choose family over a high-pressure career path. She explains how high achievers can use the Enneagram as a holistic tool to discover core motivations, regulate blind spots, and avoid using their strengths to their own detriment. Whether you are leading a team through major industry shifts or navigating your own career transition, this episode offers invaluable wisdom on alignment, self-mastery, and strategic subtraction. In this episode, you’ll discover: ✅ The Corporate Double-Standard: How well-meaning leaders accidentally model burnout to their teams by working late hours. ✅ Leading Through Crisis: Communicating with authenticity and clarity during major industry disruptions like 9/11 and COVID-19. ✅ The "I Choose Us" Moment: Janis’s story of taking an intentional step back in her career to align with her family values. ✅ Enneagram Misconceptions: Why the Enneagram is a tool for core motivation and self-mastery rather than a simple personality test. ✅ The Five-Day Solo Retreat: How taking container-free time away allows leaders to reset their identity and refuel their purpose. ✅ Inner Critic vs. Inner Champion: Deciding which internal microphone gets to direct your choices and growth.
