Finding Yourself After Leadership: The Missing Chapter in Succession

Episode notes

In this episode, we’re joined by Russel Baskin, a consultant and certified executive coach with Trella Advisory Group. Drawing from her background in human development and two decades of experience with business families, Russel helps name what often goes unspoken in transition, how control, identity, and legacy quietly shape relationships and decision-making. From habitual patterns to intergenerational tension, she invites us to consider how emotional insight and structural clarity work together in succession. Her approach emphasises empathy, shared understanding, and space for each generation to grow into their role with intention. If you're supporting a family in transition or navigating your own, this conversation offers language, perspective, and encouragement for moving forward with both steadiness and care.
