What if the only thing keeping you from a bigger, bolder life was... your imagination? In this episode of Who Are You to Lead Anyway?, we’re flipping the script on what it means to dream. Forget the overthinking, the "what ifs," and the self-imposed ceilings. It’s time to let go of the small, safe boxes you've been living in and invite in something wild: possibility.

Today, we dive deep into the fog of doubt and show you how to cut through it — not with more hustle or endless planning, but by giving yourself permission to want more. We’ll talk about why fear keeps us in survival mode and how to turn that fear into fuel for your biggest dreams. Spoiler alert: it’s not about taking reckless leaps; it’s about responding to opportunities in a way that makes you feel alive.

So, what happens when you stop playing it safe and let your imagination lead the way? Tune in to find out, because the world needs the biggest version of you, not the one that fits neatly into the box you’ve been handed.

How often do you hesitate before making a decision, afraid of getting it wrong? How many times have you ignored your gut because someone with more “authority” seemed to know better?

For years, I believed the answers were outside of me—held by people with more experience, bigger titles, and louder voices. But the more I empowered myself, the more I realized their answers weren’t mine.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the hidden ways we outsource our decisions, self-worth, and leadership—without even realizing it. We’ll unpack:

✔ The sneaky thoughts that keep you stuck in self-doubt and hesitation
✔ The false assumptions that hold you back from trusting yourself
✔ The fears that keep you playing small—and how to break free

If you’ve been waiting for permission, validation, or the “right” answer—this episode is your wake-up call. The answer isn’t out there. It’s in you.

Listen now and take back your power because the answer isn't out there—it’s in YOU.

Imagine overcoming a paralyzing fear with a technique you initially dismissed as "weird." Join us as we explore the journey of Jess Johnson, a former army therapist who transformed her life through Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). Jess shares her personal evolution into a courage and compassion coach, using EFT to manage anxiety and conquer her fear of spiders. Throughout her inspiring story, Jess highlights the importance of emotional resilience and self-belief, offering valuable insights for anyone facing fears or navigating life changes.
Our conversation delves into the narratives we construct about ourselves and the limiting beliefs that stem from societal conditioning. We discuss how these stories can hinder personal growth and authenticity, especially when it comes to financial success, parenting, and self-worth. Through practical examples and mindset shifts, we reveal how embracing differing opinions and maintaining self-confidence can lead to transformative outcomes. Jess's insights on EFT demonstrate how this tool fosters self-compassion, allowing individuals to confront and integrate past experiences while overcoming challenges like imposter syndrome.
Additionally, we tackle the empowering journey of choosing one's path in the face of societal and familial expectations. Jess shares how EFT supports empowerment by encouraging self-responsibility and the development of new beliefs. Our discussion underscores the courage it takes to pursue a path aligned with personal happiness and authenticity, encouraging listeners to trust their inner compass. As we look ahead to 2025, Jess invites you to join her growing community, offering unique EFT resources and support for your journey toward emotional freedom and authentic leadership.

E146: From “Kill It” to Cultivate It: A New Leadership Lens

Uncharted & Unfiltered: The Journey Back to You

05/13/25 • 12 min

Send us a text

Have you ever felt the immense pressure to "nail it" when stepping into something new? That sensation of needing to be perfect from day one might be familiar—and as I discovered, it's exactly what was happening with my coaching client as she prepared to lead a team of seasoned professionals.
The timing couldn't have been more serendipitous. While helping my client transform her leadership anxiety, I unwittingly created a framework that would calm my own nerves before an important assessment just hours later. This beautiful moment of reciprocity reveals how the wisdom we offer others often becomes exactly what we need ourselves.
At the heart of this episode is a powerful reframe that changed everything: "What if this wasn't something to kill but something to grow?" From this simple question bloomed the PLANT framework—a leadership approach rooted in Presence rather than pressure. We explore each element: Pausing to get present, Listening generously, Asking questions, Naming what matters, and Tending with intention. For my gardener client, this metaphor resonated deeply, helping her see her team as diverse plants with unique needs rather than challenges to conquer.
The framework proved its worth the very next morning as I faced my own assessment anxiety. By applying these same principles—pausing to breathe, listening to my body's signals, asking what I needed, naming what truly mattered, and tending to myself with care—I transformed nervous energy into focused presence. This episode is for anyone standing at the threshold of something new and important, wondering if they have what it takes. The answer is yes—not because you'll be perfect, but because you'll be present.
