Ambitious & Human
If you’ve worked hard to build a life and career you’re proud of, but are beginning to question whether the version of success that got you here is the one you want to keep living, Ambitious & Human is for you.
This weekly solo show is built on a belief I take seriously: we can be deeply ambitious and fully human. We don’t have to choose, and we shouldn’t keep designing lives and workplaces as if we do.
I’m Latia Harris, founder of Latitude & Levity® and a former People & Culture executive. Each week, I look at the rules we’ve inherited about success. Those rules shape our choices and workplaces, and we carry them into our relationships and the lives we’re building beyond work.
At the center of the show is one question: “What’s this actually asking of the humans making it happen?” That question is at the heart of Designed Success: getting clear about what success is for, then building it without sacrificing what matters most.
Follow Ambitious & Human and listen each week.

I was proud of the life and career I had built. I was also beginning to understand what some of that success had required me to trade away, and how often the choices I made about work impacted the rest of my life.
That is the tension behind Ambitious & Human.
I’m Latia Harris, founder of Latitude & Levity and a former People & Culture executive. I have seen from inside organizations and in my own life how easily ambition becomes a reason to accept ways of working and living that we would question anywhere else.
In this two-minute trailer, I share why the conversations about burnout, retention, and culture are not the whole story. The question underneath the show is bigger: What’s this actually asking of the humans making it happen?
If you have built something you are proud of and are starting to wonder whether you still want to live by the terms that got you here, listen to the trailer. Then follow Ambitious & Human for new episodes each week.
