🎙 EPISODE DESCRIPTION

How much time do you intentionally invest in your own growth as a leader?

In this powerful returning episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling welcomes back Kurt Bush — Certified Internal Family Systems Practitioner, trauma-informed coach, and co-founder of Brimstone Coaching Group — for a deeply transformational conversation on how leaders must first invest in themselves before they can effectively lead others.

With a background in corporate leadership, pastoral ministry, and coaching, Kurt shares his personal journey through imposter syndrome and self-doubt, and how embracing internal healing and self-awareness became the turning point in his leadership. His work now focuses on helping leaders move from exhaustion and frustration to clarity, confidence, and wholeness.

Together, Vicki and Kurt explore Brimstone’s powerful framework:
E + R = T (Encounter + Reflection = Transformation) a practical and deeply human approach to sustainable leadership growth.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why self-investment is not selfish — it’s strategic
    • How unaddressed internal struggles show up in leadership
    • The connection between trauma-informed coaching and authentic leadership
    • How reflection creates clarity and emotional intelligence
    • Practical steps leaders can take today to move from burnout to breakthrough

If you’ve been leading from pressure instead of purpose…
If you’ve been pouring into others but neglecting yourself…
This conversation will challenge and inspire you to lead from a place of confidence, authenticity, and wholeness.

Because confident leadership doesn’t start with strategy.
It starts within.
