Join us as we reflect on four years of fall reflections. At Seasons Leadership we use the seasons as a powerful tool for understanding transitions and cycles in leadership, offering you actionable insights to navigate these changes. Fall is a time of integration and reflection. Get inspired to dig into your own journey this fall and reflect on what is serving you and what is no longer serving you. We share our own fall transitions and more exciting news about our Elemental Leadership course.   

Show Notes:

(3:25) Evolution: How is the fourth podcast on fall different for us? We reflect on how we have evolved.

(5:30) Transitions and integration: We recognize through all our senses what we experience in the transition from summer to fall and connect those inspirations into integrating all these different things from your life. 

(9:00) Loss and growth at the same time: We talk about this time of transition and notice that many leaders come to us for coaching when they are experiencing fall. 

(11:00) Updating business practices: We discuss how we always spend time in fall looking at our business strategy.

(13:25) Personal transitions: We share our personal transitions and talk about harvesting all the work we have done in the last four years.

(17:45) Take the time to reflect: We conclude the podcast asking questions and giving strategic advice to make the most of fall. How are things showing up in your leadership? Think about your strategic planning. Take responsibility for your life, nurture it and take care of yourself. Explore the possibilities!

Fall reflections are running through my mind

Fall means running Cross Country. This sport has shaped so many of my fall seasons of life. First as a student athlete and now as a coach. This sport, which is all about racing across varied terrain, takes on an almost mythical quality for me and I suspect many other runners that are drawn to this open-air competition.

Strong leaders assert agency

This summer, I've been reflecting on the concept of agency because my coaching clients have been talking about it. People say things like, “I could never do that!” or “I’m burning out, my boss doesn’t see all that I do!”
