Marina Piscolish joins Eric on the podcast this week to talk about leveraging strengths and owning the challenges. Marina is the president and founder of Mapping Change LLC, a small consulting business born of her passion for harnessing the transformative power of conflict to create positive changes for individuals, teams, and organizations. Being born in rural Pennsylvania as a coal-miner’s daughter and a grandchild of immigrants provided helpful preparation for her work, especially in Hawaii and the broader pacific. As she continues developing ways of working with culture, identities, sense-of-place, history, and trauma, her early struggle with her own undiagnosed ADHD was a defining influence on her career and life. Now, Marina focuses on making creative accommodations for her ‘limitations’ and leverages her neurodivergence as an asset for her business, her clients, and the people close to her.
