A Podcast & Community for Women Who Lead

Some moves
don't come with
a roadmap.

Every remarkable career has a chapter no résumé can tell.

Bold Moves is where ambitious women come to have the conversations that don't happen anywhere else. Hosted by Mary Mehr.

has been in the room
when careers change.

Mary Mehr has spent more than fifteen years sitting at the intersection of leadership, organizational change, and human behavior. After advising executives, building organizations, and navigating her own reinventions, she created Bold Moves to explore the conversations most leaders have behind closed doors — but rarely in public.

She believes the most important leadership lessons come not from the moments we planned, but from the ones we didn't.
