Business Blasphemy
Business Blasphemy with Sarah Khan
The leadership podcast for ambitious women done playing by the rules.
Hosted by Sarah Khan — Business Strategist, Leadership Consultant, TEDx Speaker, and corporate escapee — Business Blasphemy challenges the hustle culture and toxic norms dominating entrepreneurship, executive leadership, and online business.
Each episode delivers bold truths, strategic insight, and no-fluff advice on what it really takes to grow a business or career without burning out, selling out, or losing yourself in the process.
If you're an entrepreneur, executive, or expert ready to build sustainable success rooted in identity, integrity, and real power — not performance — this podcast is your permission slip to lead differently. Expect sharp perspective shifts, practical strategy, and the occasional curse word.
