In this powerful episode host Kailei Carr and Myra Capri sit down with the incomparable four-time New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and founder of the Book Academy, Luvvie Ajayi Jones for an intimate conversation about leadership, burnout, joy, and bold transitions.
Luvvie shares why she recently hired a CEO and stepped fully into her role as Founder and Chief Visionary Officer—a move that allowed her to release the operational weight of entrepreneurship and reclaim her time, creativity, and purpose. She opens up about navigating burnout, the sacredness of sabbaticals, and what it really means to trust your team and divine timing.
The conversation also dives into the healing power of Luvvie’s latest children’s book, Little Troublemaker Defends Her Name, and the deeply personal mission behind her Keychain Initiative—empowering kids and adults alike to honor the beauty and dignity of their names.
From reclaiming joy and play to redefining success and going deeper than the surface, this episode is a love note to every visionary who is ready to lead with heart, rest with intention, and beyond with courage.
