About This Podcast

Welcome to A Category of One: deep, honest conversations with entrepreneurs about how we show up as the truest version of ourselves, both personally and professionally.

I’m Leslie Silverman, brand strategist and curious human, and this podcast was born from one belief: when we let our light shine, we give others permission to do the same.

Each week, I sit down with founders, creatives, and business leaders to explore identity, ambition, doubt, reinvention, and the uncomfortable growth no one talks about.

We go beyond tactics and into:
-Authentic leadership
-Building a brand aligned with who you are
-The inner work behind outer success
-Navigating ambition without losing yourself
-Becoming a category of one, not by trying to stand out, but by telling the truth


If you care about meaningful work and living in alignment with who you actually are, you’re in the right place.

New episodes every Wednesday.
