EP 220 - Heart-Led Leadership: How She Taught It at Harvard | Kim Sorrelle
Harvard invited Kim Sorrelle to teach Heart-Led Leadership — twice. Here’s what she taught them about leading with love.
In this episode of Finding Better, I sit down with Kim Sorrelle — author, entrepreneur, humanitarian, and one of the most heart-led leaders I know. Kim spent a year testing whether love could actually work as a life strategy, an experiment that became her book, Love Is, and took her all the way to the streets of Haiti — and eventually to a stage at Harvard, where she taught Heart-Led Leadership to a room that runs on IQ, not heart.
We get into:
✅ What Heart-Led Leadership actually means (and why Harvard wanted it)
✅ Why servant leadership outperforms old-school command-and-control leadership
✅ How to lead with love without being seen as ”soft” or weak
✅ Turning compassion into real, measurable business results
✅ The mindset shift from head-led to heart-led decision making
✅ How her humanitarian work in Haiti reshaped how she runs her companies
If you’re a founder, entrepreneur, manager, or leader tired of leadership advice that skips your heart entirely — this conversation will change how you show up tomorrow.
