Even when you think you have no choice. And if you are unable to make a decision, you are choosing to stay in a state of indecision. The only question is - are your choices taking you where you want to go? I am Sumit Gupta, and this is \"Choosing Leadership\" - a podcast for high performers with big dreams - who know deep inside that there is more. This is a podcast for people who know they are more powerful than the level they are currently playing. I have spent a long time feeling powerless, and that is why I see where you are powerful even when you cannot. I dare to say what most people would not. I dare to speak to the \"tremendous power\" which you already have rather than what you believe are your strengths and limitations. This podcast is called \"choosing leadership\" - because that is what leadership is - a choice. The choice to step into the unknown. The choice to see fear as a friend. The choice to take courageous action rather than waiting for readiness. Join Sumit in exploring this question when it comes to your leadership.

I believe we all have a lot to learn from each other's stories - of where we started, where we are now, and our successes and struggles on the way. With this series of interviews, my attempt is to give leaders an opportunity to share their stories and for all of us to learn from their generous sharing. If you know a leader whom you would like to see celebrated on the show, please send me a message on LinkedIn with their name. Growth doesn’t feel like confidence—it feels like discomfort, doubt, and stepping into rooms where you’re not the smartest person yet. In this episode of Choosing Leadership, Sumit Gupta sits down with Lindsay Nahmiache to unpack what it really takes to grow when comfort is no longer an option. They dive into how embracing uncertainty, building systems, and telling better stories can unlock exponential growth in business and life. If you’re leading a team, building something ambitious, or feeling stuck at your current level, this conversation will challenge the way you think about progress. Expect real talk, practical insights, and a nudge to stop waiting until you feel ready—because leadership starts the moment you choose to move anyway. You can find Lindsay Nahmiache at the links below https://www.linkedin.com/in/lindsaynahmiache/ https://jiveprdigital.com/ In the interview, Lindsay shares “If growth feels comfortable, you’re probably not growing at all.” “Discomfort isn’t a sign you’re failing—it’s proof you’re evolving.” “Entrepreneurship is learning to feel at home in the unknown.” “Every breakthrough I’ve had came from stepping into situations I couldn’t control.” “Storytelling isn’t marketing—it’s how people decide whether to trust you.” “You don’t stumble into opport…","meta_description":"This is the Leadership Journey series on the Choosing Leadership Podcast.
