Navigating Self-Care and Vulnerability in Professional Settings

Self-leadership is more than a buzzword—it’s a radical act of reclaiming your voice, values, and well-being in a system that often asks you to check them at the door. In this episode, Tony Martignetti sits down with Laurie Ruettimann—acclaimed author, speaker, and host of the Punk Rock HR podcast—to talk about her evolution from burned-out HR executive to bold advocate for personal agency and workplace change. Laurie unpacks the myths of fixing ourselves, explores why vulnerability is a strength (not a liability), and digs into the power of storytelling, therapy, and showing up fully human at work. Laurie reminds us that the path to fixing work begins with honoring who we already are.
