The Badass Leader: Helping High-Achieving Women Lead with Calm, Clarity, and Deep Self-Trust
Hosted by executive coach and former Fortune 500 leader Coco Duan, this podcast explores what it truly takes to become a badass leader—someone who leads with calm, clarity, courage, and deep self-trust.
Many high-achieving women are already badass.
They just don’t feel like one.
Because the Good Girl conditioning that helped them succeed is still running the show—driving overwork, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and constant pressure to prove.
Through this podcast, Coco helps you unlearn those patterns so you can stop performing and start leading from your real power.
Each episode offers practical tools and insights on topics such as:
• Regulate your nervous system to create internal safety and expand your capacity to handle pressure
• Unlearn Good Girl conditioning (play safe, please, and prove)
• Reclaim your voice, boundaries, and sense of self
• Realign how you lead—so you can show up calm, clear, and deeply self-trusting
With 20+ years of corporate leadership experience and deep personal transformation, Coco has helped women around the world step into the leaders they already are.
A Badass Leader.

23: 9 Emotional Myths That Block Your Confidence, Leadership, and Fulfillment
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I dive into the critical role that emotions play in our personal and professional growth. Growing up in a family and cultural environment that dismissed emotions, and later navigating a corporate world that valued intellect over feelings, left me emotionally illiterate.
Now, as a coach, I see how many successful yet self-doubting women executives struggle with similar misconceptions about emotions. This episode kicks off a series where I debunk nine common misconceptions about emtions.
We’ll discuss how emotions are neither unimportant nor unprofessional, how logic and emotions complement each other, and why expressing emotions is a sign of strength, not weakness. I share personal stories, client insights, and practical tools to help you develop emotional awareness, process your emotions, and express them constructively.
Join me as we begin this journey to redefine our relationship with emotions—because understanding and leveraging them is key to building grounded confidence and become unstoppable in achieving your goals!
