After 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.
