  Cautionary Tale: How Borrowed Credibility Built a $9 Billion Lie, Elizabeth Holmes' Story

  Sep 22, 202633 min

  Welcome to the next Cautionary Tale episode. We talk about Theranos and the fall of Elizabeth Holmes. Elizabeth Holmes is the perfect warning tale for anyone who works inside a company, follows a visionary leader, or has ever wanted a story to be true so badly they stopped asking hard questions. This episode breaks down how Theranos went from billion-dollar hype to criminal fraud—and why the real lesson is not just about one liar, but about the investors, board members, journalists, and followers who helped the myth survive. Dr. Sadaghiani frames Holmes as part of her Cautionary Tale of Bad Leaders series and uses Barbara Kellerman’s leadership research to show how bad leadership unfolds in phases: early optimism, borrowed credibility, silence, escalation, and finally catastrophe. You’ll hear how Theranos built its image, why the black turtleneck persona worked so well, and how the company’s famous board members became armor instead of oversight.

  Sep 15, 202616 min

  Leili sits down with Cass McKay, a Prescott, Arizona business owner in payment processing and merchant services, to talk about what it means to build a business on relationships instead of transactions. The conversation covers her move from corporate life into entrepreneurship, the role of self-accountability, and why authenticity matters in a low-trust industry. We discuss practical ways business owners can save money, avoid restrictive contracts, and work with someone who earns their business every month. Cass also shares lessons from seven years in corporate, what she would tell her younger self, and why support from community and family matters when making a big career shift.

  The Hidden Bias that Turns Hard Decisions into Career Tests Part II

  Sep 8, 202623 min

  This part II continues the conversation on hidden bias by showing how leaders can protect their self-trust when their decisions are being judged through unfair assumptions. It uses the Heidi/Howard study to illustrate how the same behavior can be praised in one person and criticized in another, then offers practical tools for staying grounded under scrutiny: naming the moment, pausing before reacting, asking what you’d decide if nobody were watching, and using your body to regulate stress. The episode ultimately reinforces that while systems can be biased, you still have agency over how you make decisions, interpret feedback, and lead with clarity.
