Ep 101: Keeping Calm When Everyone Else is Losing Their Mind

Today we do a deep dive – but for only a few brief moments – on the concept of family systems theory. It might sound boring on the surface, but it’s fascinating and significant in understanding how teams of people work.

On this episode we’ll explore how to be a non-anxious presence and a self-differentiated leader, all the while avoiding emotional regression in the systems we lead.

Because it’s a deep dive, I want to encourage you to look into it further. Here are some importance resources to explore further:
