What If Sunday Night Felt Good?
The Hidden Hats Leaders Inherit the Day They’re Promoted to Leading Many
When leaders step into their first director, VP, or C‑suite role, they’re handed responsibility, authority, and expectations — but no one warns them about the hidden hats they’ll end up wearing. The Mirror. The Fire Chief. The Coach. These roles shape every conversation, every decision, and every sleepless night.
What If Sunday Night Felt Good? is a playbook for leaders who’ve gone from managing a few to leading many and suddenly find themselves stretched thin, firefighting constantly, and quietly wondering if they’re the only ones who feel this way. They’re not.
Drawing on three decades of executive leadership and coaching, Katie Murphy reveals the eight hidden hats leaders inherit — and how to navigate them with clarity instead of exhaustion. Through real stories, myth‑busting insights, and reflection questions you can apply immediately, this book gives you language for what you’ve been carrying and a practical path toward leading with intention, steadiness, and relief.
If you’ve ever felt the weight of leadership in your bones, this book will help you understand why — and what to do next.
You deserve quality time focused on you with someone you can trust. Together, let’s invest in you.
