S01 E39 The Hardest Part of Leadership Is Unlearning | Themis Gomes

In this episode, host Meg sits down with Themis Gomes, an engineer-turned-executive and entrepreneur with one of the most globally diverse career journeys you’ll hear on the podcast. From aerospace engineering to startups, global leadership roles, and ultimately becoming CEO and board member of BeHaven Kids in Nebraska, Themis shares hard-earned lessons on leadership, culture, and the people side of business.

The conversation explores how to engineer the human side of business—designing strong structures, processes, and cultures that create momentum, accountability, and motivated teams. Themis speaks candidly about vulnerability, decision-making under uncertainty, navigating leadership as a woman, and the realities of scaling people-first organisations in complex industries like healthcare.
