Episode Synopsis

My favorite takeaway from the episode was about why managing difficult emotions isn't a sign of weakness; it’s a strategic weapon. This is crucial for leaders who often feel the pressure and weight of expectations. Morra nailed it when she said that many leaders would rather admit to cheating on their taxes than confess to feeling anxious! It's time we shift that mindset and embrace anxiety as a part of leadership. We might just find that those struggles, the very things we've been trying to hide, are actually our hidden superpowers. I’m truly inspired by her work, and I hope you all found the episode as enlightening as I did.
