Noteworthy Quotes from This Episode
“A bumper sticker I loved that said, ‘Don’t believe everything you think’. As soon as you know that your brain is a story constructor, as opposed to a truth teller, then you have just such a lot more power over the goodness of your life, the comfort of your life.”
“I think a leader without self absorbing and self calming habits is very likely to just be leaving a whole wake of anxiety [and] fear all around them.”
“Leaders used to have roles that were complex and were trying to figure out how to balance values, money, resource, time; all these things. Now, they’re being asked to do impossible balancing acts, right? And there are more people watching them and judging them than ever before.”
“Who gets to decide whether you’re successful or not? What is that attached to? What is your commitment to your own future, your own development, your own values? What does that look like?”
“This is the conversation I’m trying to have with people: how do we foster love and connection and clarity instead of disconnection disorder and the dissolving of our social structures?”
