E177: A Pause, A Choice, and a Christmas Message

Send us a textAfter a couple of quieter weeks, I’m returning to the microphone with clarity rather than urgency and with truth rather than explanation.This episode is an orientation.I share why I chose to pause, what was reorganizing beneath the surface, and how this moment reflects what I call post-institutional leadership:  the phase that arrives after years of leading inside systems where authority was external, and you’re asked to lead without that scaffolding.I talk about why this kind of leadership often shows up later, not right away; why I’m choosing depth over volume with the podcast going forward; and what it means to be locatable rather than everywhere.I also share how I’m simplifying my work in a way that feels more honest and sustainable — and offer a Christmas and year-end message for anyone who feels tired of bracing, performing, or holding it all together.This episode isn’t about doing less.It’s about choosing more honestly.No rush.No pressure.Just a place to pause and listen.Support the showPlease rate and review with your honest opinion.

E176: Self-Trust Begins When The Story Ends

Send us a textIn this powerful behind-the-scenes episode, I take you into a six-month coaching journey that reveals something universal about leadership, self-trust, and the stories we tell ourselves.My client — an accomplished, caring, highly capable leader — came into coaching believing that every tense meeting, every system glitch, and every emotional reaction from her team meant something about her. Like so many high-achieving leaders I coach, she wasn’t overwhelmed by the work. She was overwhelmed by her interpretation of the work.What unfolded next was nothing short of transformational.In this episode, you’ll hear how she learned to:Stop taking responsibility for everyone else’s feelingsReplace “I don’t know” with the far more powerful “I can figure this out”Shift from pressure → presence, chaos → clarityRegulate her emotional landscape instead of absorbing everyone else’sLead with compassion, integrity, boundaries, and inner steadinessRecognize that self-trust isn’t about having the answer — it’s believing she can find oneYou’ll also hear truths I shared with her — the kind that disrupt old patterns and open the door to identity-level transformation:You’re not responsible for everything.Uncertainty is not failure.Chaos doesn’t mean you’re ineffective.And your story is not the truth.By the end of our work together, she wasn’t trying to “perform” leadership anymore.She was inhabiting it — fully, authentically, intentionally.If you are a leader who finds yourself overthinking, over-owning, or overwhelmed by the emotional climate around you… this episode is for you.You’ll walk away with three powerful invitations:Where are you confusing chaos with inadequacy?Where are you picking up emotional weight that isn’t yours?Where can you shift from “I don’t know” → “I can figure this out”?Because coaching isn’t about becoming someone better.It’s about becoming someone truer.If this episode resonates and you’re ready to lead from clarity, steadiness, and self-trust instead of pressure and perfection, I invite you to book a clarity call through the link in the show notes.Breathe deeply.Lead gently.And trust yourself more than you think you can.Support the showPlease rate and review with your honest opinion.

E175: Leading With Intuition: Self-Trust As A Strategy

Send us a textIn this special crossover episode, I’m sharing a conversation from The School for Psychics podcast with my former mentor, psychic medium and founder of the School for Psychics, Crystal Moreland. If you’re a corporate leader wondering what psychic development or spiritual language has to do with leadership, this one is exactly for you.Together, we explore what really happens when you strip away your titles, roles, and expectations and meet yourself beneath it all. We talk about the moments that change everything — leaving a long-term corporate career, saying yes to the unknown, and learning to trust the quiet inner signals that have been speaking to you all along.In this episode, we dive into:How heightened self-awareness directly improves strategic clarity and decision-makingWhy presence is a business advantage (and what pulls you out of it)The beliefs, habits, and protective patterns that quietly limit your impact, influence, and well-beingWhat it truly means to become your own oracle and trust your inner authorityHow to walk through transitions — new roles, career shifts, or identity changes — without abandoning yourselfThis isn’t about being “psychic” in a mystical, out-of-reach way. It’s about removing interference so you can clearly hear your Higher Self, your deepest knowing — and lead from that place.If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lived many lives in one lifetime, or you can sense a change coming but can’t quite name it yet, this episode will meet you right where you are.Support the showPlease rate and review with your honest opinion.

E174: From Autopilot To Authenticity: Listening To Your Nervous System

Send us a textYour body has been telling the truth longer than your mind has been willing to hear it. In this episode, I share a candid story about ignoring subtle signals, defaulting to composure, and the exact moment my nervous system took the wheel—and how that became a turning point toward deeper self trust and more honest leadership.We unpack how high performers often mistake self sufficiency for strength, why “I’m fine” teaches people to leave us alone, and how fear narrows our options until we deliberately widen them with presence. I walk through six grounded lessons: treating the body as messenger, seeing the shadow of over-functioning, reactivating receptive capacities like rest and asking for help, catching automatic control patterns, using pivot points to install new practices, and meeting fear daily as information rather than an enemy. Along the way we explore practical regulation tools—breath-work OR movement to complete stress cycles, and how earlier, clearer requests for support—can move insight out of your head and into your life.If you’ve ever overridden discomfort to keep commitments, if you delegate only when underwater, or if your best ideas arrive after your shoulders drop, this conversation will feel like a mirror. Coaching shows up here as a catalyst, not a fix: a steady space to slow the autopilot moment, name what’s underneath, and choose again with clarity. You’ll leave with language for your needs, simple rituals to steady your nervous system, and prompts that help you trade pressure for presence so your leadership feels like you.Ready to build self trust and lead without abandoning yourself?
