What if success could be redefined on your terms—without compromise, burnout, or constant over-qualification? Monique Shields, the powerhouse behind Seven Pines Leadership and host of Ambition Without Compromise Podcast, has spent her career guiding women of colour CEOs and founders toward a liberated version of leadership that honours who they are, not just what they achieve.
In this episode, we discuss the radical act of rest as a strength, challenging the notion that stillness equals unproductiveness. She unpacks the concept of “collecting mass burnout,” a message that’s resonated with millions after she shared it as a reel on Instagram, and opens up about her own journey in an industry where being a WOC brings its own layers of both challenge and resilience. You’ll hear her insights on learning to trust oneself without the endless “qualifications” and redefining ambition in a way that leaves space for life and joy.
This episode is an invitation to rethink what achievement could look like—especially if you’re ready to break free from what the world tells you to be.
