Have A Seat...Conversations With Women In The Workplace
The Human Side of Leadership: A Conversation with Huong Bui & Angela Smith, Co-Founders, KaleidoWork
Angela:
"Those shifts [in work culture] allowed me to remain very career-driven and productive. If they hadn’t happened, I could’ve easily been part of the statistics of women who left the workforce because it was just too much."
Huong:
"If a plant doesn’t thrive in the garden, we don’t blame the plant—we look at the environment. It’s the same in the workplace. We need to ask: What needs to change to help this person thrive?"
In this insightful and heartfelt episode of Have a Seat, I sit down with Angela Smith and Huong Bui, co-founders of KaleidoWork, to explore what it truly means to create human-centric workplaces.
Drawing from their rich leadership experience and coaching work, Angela and Huong unpack the beliefs, behaviors, and systems that shape how we work—and how we can do it better. From redefining leadership and boundaries to dismantling outdated 9-to-5 norms, these two powerhouse women share powerful strategies for sustainable leadership and workplace well-being.
If you’ve ever felt burned out, unseen, or boxed in by traditional expectations, this conversation offers a refreshing, compassionate, and action-forward perspective.
