"Midweek Moxie w/ Michael Lounsbury"

On this week's Midweek Moxie episode, I’m joined by Michael Lounsbury, a U.S. Army veteran, entrepreneur, published author, and the founder of PeopleOps Advisors. After overcoming a challenging upbringing and years of service to his country, Michael built a career in leadership and HR across industries like construction, staffing, healthcare, and nonprofit operations. In our conversation, Michael shares how his journey shaped his unique approach to human resources, one that blends structure and compliance with empathy and compassion. We talk about resilience, purpose, and what it takes to create people-centered workplaces that don’t just follow the rules, but also truly support and uplift the people who make businesses thrive. If you’re a leader, entrepreneur, or anyone curious about building workplaces with more heart, this episode is for you.
