THE CEO SAGE

WITH KRIS PLACHY

In Pursuit of Greatness

Jul 13, 2026

What if admitting you want more isn't selfish? What if it's actually the point?

Kris has been thinking about greatness. Not achievement. Not goals. Greatness. And she's noticing that most women don't think of themselves as being in pursuit of it. They think of themselves as trying to achieve goals or make something happen. But not as women pursuing greatness.

She's wondering what would shift if you actually claimed that.

The women she works with know there's more to pursue, more to experience, more to become. And that hunger doesn't turn off. It doesn't take a break. It doesn't have an off button. Which means if it's not well-directed, it has consequences.

In this episode, Kris is asking you to get honest about where you're still pursuing something. Not in a frantic way. In an expansive, invigorating, curious way.

What you'll learn:

  • What happens when your pursuit of greatness isn't directed
  • How your superpower can become your poison if it's not directed
  • What happens when you acknowledge that you want to be great
  • Where greatness might be calling to you that you haven't named yet
  • How to know if you're pursuing something real or something that isn't aligned
  • About two opportunities opening up if you're ready to pursue your next level

The question she leaves you with is simple. Where else is greatness calling to me?
