THE CORE IN ONE MINUTE
Why do you keep waiting when you feel ready?
Lisette approaches this question through identity: the image of yourself you have continued to act from. This episode centres on the move from adapting to embodying. Giving yourself permission means considering who you already are, where you still hold yourself back and the space you want to occupy in your leadership.
IN THIS EPISODE
No more noise. A clearer distinction.
Explore which old identity limits your leadership.
Distinguish adapting to others from taking your place as yourself.
Feeling ready, yet waiting
You sense that there is more in you than you currently show. That tension is the starting point. Lisette draws attention to the permission you give yourself to lead, particularly when your familiar role has become smaller than what you want to express.
The influence of an old identity
The original shownotes describe how an old image of yourself can keep you in the same place. Use that as a point of reflection: where are you still acting as the person you used to be? Which adaptations have become so familiar that you barely notice them?
From adapting to embodying
Embodiment takes meaning through the space you allow yourself. After listening, choose one situation where you want your own leadership to speak. The questions below help you explore it without turning a single insight into a complete change programme.
PERSONAL REFLECTION
What do you already know?
- Where am I waiting for permission I could give myself?
- Which old role no longer fits who I am?
- What would I express differently in my next conversation?
This editorial is based on the original Dutch shownotes. The reflection questions were added for your own practice. A verified transcript is not yet available; the complete recording can be heard above.
