Who are you when the title is gone? David Fish, known as Fishy, went from Chief Strategy Officer to a leukemia diagnosis to rebuilding his identity from the ground up. This episode of Inner Voice of Knowing is about authentic leadership, identity beyond achievement, and what psychological safety actually costs a team when it is missing.

David spent years burying the parts of himself that did not fit the corporate frame. The hot air balloon pilot. The skydiver. The man underneath the strategy deck. The pressure of that suppression eventually broke open in a single, unmistakable moment at work, and what followed was a rebuilding of self that had nothing to do with reinvention and everything to do with return.

In this conversation, David shares the idea of the library of stories: the lived experience each of us carries and can draw from, rather than constructing a persona to survive the room. He speaks to agency, the difference between choosing what you share and hiding what you are, and why psychological safety in a team is not a soft concept but a performance one.

Kaye and David move through the paradox of a world more connected than ever and more disconnected than ever, the trust that only presence can build, and what it takes to stay coherent when feedback, rejection and expectation are all pulling at you.

We are not only in a life of business, we are also in the business of life.
