Unmasked is the podcast where leaders strip away the persona and share the turning points that changed everything. Hosted by Angela Cox, Paseda360 Founder and award-winning coach, each conversation goes beneath the surface to uncover what happened when they retired the pretender and chose to lead as their true selves. These are the stories behind the success—the brave decisions, the uncomfortable truths, and the defining moments that shaped who they are today. This is leadership unfiltered. Real people. Real turning points. Unmasked.
