What if the way you’ve learned to lead is actually pulling you further from who you really are?

In this episode, I’m joined by Lise Lønsmann – a trauma-informed somatic practitioner and embodied leadership mentor – for a conversation about what it means to lead without abandoning yourself.

We explore how conventional leadership often rewards speed, control and performance, and why slowing down can feel countercultural but deeply necessary. Lise shares how embodiment helps us reconnect with our inner resource, why resourcing is about meaning not productivity, and how we can begin to meet discomfort without getting lost in it.

Whether you see yourself as a leader or not, this one is for anyone curious about a more human way to work and live.

What we talk about in this episode:

• What it really means to lead from the body (and why it matters)
• The power of slowing down, especially in fast-paced environments
• How nervous system awareness changes the way we lead and relate
• Why "bringing your whole self to work" is both radical and deeply human
• The importance of tending to your needs (not just overriding them)
