How you lead yourself impacts how you lead others. And how you lead yourself and others has a ripple effect in all the spaces you live and work. It really is that simple. And that important. Unaddressed pain from difficult life experiences and traumas rob us of our capacity for connection. Unaddressed burdens of trauma impact how you make decisions on everything from parenting to public policy. Both individual and collective traumas perpetuate disconnection in all the spaces we live and work in. The ripple effect of disconnection takes us out of our innate ability to genuinely care about the well being of others. We become hyper focused on our own safety - sometimes at extreme costs to others. When we make decisions based on fear and self-protection, we end up generating more fear and dehumanize the people we lead. This is weighing us down individually and collectively. Our unaddressed trauma generates very real consequences in our communities. As my guest today wisely states, we have forgotten how to be human with each other. But when we do remember how to be human with each other, we can create more peaceful, more equitable, and more just communities. Dr. Robyn Henderson-Espinoza is a Transqueer Activist, Latinx Scholar, and a Public Theologian.
