The Hidden Work of Staying Connected with Tania Plakonouris

At The Second Voice, we explore the inner conversations leaders rarely say out loud. Today, Luisa's guest is Tania Plakonouris, a Relational Resilience Consultant. When relationships start to strain — at work, in teams, or in our personal lives — the easiest thing to do is walk away. But what if real resilience isn’t about holding it together, but learning how to reconnect when it feels impossible? Today we’re exploring the quiet, unseen work that keeps connection alive — even when it hurts. If this episode resonated, it is likely because the second voice is active in your leadership too.

Whisper & Thread creates intimate apparel embroidered with quiet, internal messages designed to interrupt negative self-talk. Each piece carries a reminder on the inside. Not performative. Not loud. Just for you. Because leadership self-talk does not start in the boardroom. And confidence is built in the moments no one sees.
