In this inspiring episode of The EA Campus Podcast, Nicky Christmas sits down with the one and only Hallie Warner - Force Multiplier, coach, consultant, and co-author of The Founder and the Force Multiplier. If you’ve followed Hallie’s work, you’ll know how much she’s impacted the assistant community. And if this is your first introduction to her, you’re in for something really special.

Hallie shares her career journey from early assistant roles to becoming Chief of Staff and now launching her own business, including the brand-new Force Multiplier Academy. We dive into what it means to show up as a strategic partner, how Hallie defines the Force Multiplier mindset, and what makes a true, trusted partnership with your Executive.

We also talk about:

The transition from EA to Chief of Staff (and how to know if it’s right for you)
Building your personal brand intentionally (even if you're an introvert)
Taking a meaningful career break and learning to rest
The power of self-awareness and communication style in building influence
Her current coaching and consulting work, plus exciting new projects on the horizon

And yes, Hallie shares her latest book recommendations, her love for reality TV (hello, The Traitors), and what’s always on her desk, even on a deserted island.

Whether you're just starting out in your career or stepping into a senior EA or Chief of Staff role, Hallie’s honest, practical advice will leave you feeling empowered and ready to take the next step.
