Episode Synopsis

What if the elephant in the room is actually a mirror of what’s going on inside of you? In this episode, Kelly talks with author, speaker, and coach Joyce Kyles about her book What Color Is Your Elephant and the deeper conversations it inspires. Joyce shares how elephants both external and internal, can hold us back when we don’t name them, and how self-awareness, empathy, and communication are the keys to transformation.

We dive into:
• How the idea of the elephant in the room evolved into a metaphor for internal growth
• The link between personal experiences, bias, and the conversations we avoid
• Why identifying your inner elephants is essential for healing and self-leadership
• The power of assessments, core values, and communication in team and personal development
• How Joyce uses the elephant metaphor in retreats, corporate workshops, and coaching
