As emotional intelligence becomes the new currency of leadership, most organizations are still stuck treating people like static roles, not whole humans. Great Mondays Radio host Josh Levine sits down with Tracy Candido—executive leadership coach, podcast host, and founder of WaveMaker—to explore how a methodology called parts work can transform how we lead, collaborate, and build trust at work.

This is a conversation about wellbeing beyond wellness perks, the power of naming your inner parts, and what happens when teams stop pretending to be perfect and start showing up with emotional honesty. Tracy shares insights from years of coaching leaders and teams to identify what’s really driving behavior—whether it’s the procrastinator, the perfectionist, or your inner champion.

If you’ve ever asked, “Why do I keep doing that thing I don’t want to do?”—or if you want to lead smarter by building deeper trust with your team—this episode is for you.
