Rise Up with April Poynter
Rise Up with April Poynter
This is the unfiltered version of April.
Rise Up is a podcast about the real stuff — healing, leading, building, and figuring it out along the way.
No single lane. No neat category. Just honest conversations and solo thoughts from someone who has spent over 20 years in boardrooms, break rooms, and every space in between.
Some episodes are about chronic blushing and breaking the loop.
Some are about the alignment gap between leaders and the people doing the work.
Some are just audio messages — unscripted, unedited, straight from wherever April is in that moment.
Because some thoughts are too real to wait for a recording schedule.
All of it comes from the same place.
Just a human. Navigating being one.
All of it is Rise Up.
Come for one thing. Stay for all of it.

32: The Role of Suffering: Are you MAD, GLAD, SAD, or SCARED?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Suffering can be a compass to lead you to the next place on your journey. Clearly, we don't want to suffer - I know I don't want to ... but it's part of life. Let's make lemonade out of lemons.
Let's catch up. It's been a while.
