What if the biggest lever for team performance isn't strategy, but the energy you walk into a room with? 

In this episode of The Tarryn Reeves Show, keynote speaker, bestselling author, and leadership coach Lisa Even joins Tarryn to unpack the Good Ripple Effect—her framework for building trust, culture, and joy inside high-performing teams.

Lisa has spent her career leading teams in high-pressure healthcare environments and now partners with global brands like Disney, ESPN, and SHRM to help leaders show up with presence and build workplace cultures people actually want to be part of. 

In This Episode:

  • The origin story behind the "Good Ripple Effect" and what it really means to be a disturbance (in a good way) to the people around you
  • Why leading with a "live in the lab" mindset helps leaders ditch perfectionism
  • Her PB&J worksheet for running better one-on-ones
  • How to identify attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs that are quietly shaping your team culture
  • Simple techniques for building real psychological safety and trust, not just surface-level niceness
  • Why she believes leaders need to make joy an intentional, scheduled part of their work and life and how her "Joy Calendar" started it all
  • Practical, low-lift ways busy leaders and entrepreneurs can build more joy into their day in 15 minutes or less

Whether you're leading a corporate team, running your own business, or simply want to have more influence without a formal title, this episode is packed with practical tools for leading with impact and creating a ripple that lasts.
