In this episode of the Leadership Vision Podcast, host Nathan Freeburg is joined by Dr. Linda and Brian Schubring, co-authors of Unfolded: Lessons in Transformation from an Origami Crane. Together, they unpack the metaphor of maps—how our experiences, values, and memories create inner landscapes that shape who we are and how we lead.

Key themes explored:

• Why our lives can be seen as maps that reveal both familiar paths and hidden folds.
• How reflection helps us navigate uncertainty and find answers within our own stories.
• The role of origin stories and shaping influences in leadership.
• How life’s seasons and folds prepare us for growth and resilience.
• The importance of mentors and guides—experts, explorers, empaths, and entertainers—who help us interpret our maps.

Pull Quotes:

• “Maps represent our lives, our inner landscape, our lived experiences, and the people that have shaped us.” – Brian Schubring
• “In doing so, you learn to love your map. To not be ashamed of it, not just hide it away. But put dignity and compassion towards how you’ve been created and wired.” – Dr. Linda Schubring
