Holiday Season Reflections: Our Problems with Others are Problems within OurselvesI was sent the perennial question - how to cope with difficult relatives and house guests over the Holiday Season?The short answer - 'our problems with others are problems with ourselves' is one of my favourite - and most hated - sayings.Favourite - because it implies and encourages personal responsibility, self-mastery and freedom.Hated - because it removes the possibility of blaming the other person, and implies investing in difficult personal exploration at times when we might prefer to allocate responsibility elsewhere!Some of the themes in this Episode:~ The value of robust resolution of differences in a healthy and growing relationship.~ How our overwhelming and intolerable negative reactions may signpost our own inner problems.~ The difference between someone else crossing the line and an over-reaction on our part.~ Ways to explore stuck negative reactions and find acceptance, resolution and ways forward.~ The role of love as the ultimate power in our relationships.~~~~~~~ASK ME ANYTHING   yesyounow.today/podcastSend in requests for future episodes.~~~~~~~ WATCH THE VIDEO    yesyounow.today/selfmasteryHow and Why to Elevate your Life.~~~~~~~ GET TO KNOW   youtube.comTake in Catherine's first-hand responses to the challenges and opportunities leaders are facing today.~~~~~~~ CHECK OUT YESYOUNOW with Catherine Llewellyn   yesyounow.todayFind out more about Yes You Now Advanced Strategic Self-Mastery for Entrepreneurs and Business Owners.~~~~~~~ BOOK A CALL   go.oncehub.com/booka15minutecallIf you would like a chat with Catherine, you can schedule a 15-minute call.Support the show===🤝 Join our Being Space Community✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com✦ Website: https://beingspace.world✦ YouTube: / https://youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn✦ Insta: / https://instagram.com/beingspace.world/✦ Facebook: / https://facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld✦ TikTok: / https://tiktok.com/@beingspace.world______Donate: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donatePodcast network: https://joinpodmatch.com/catherinellewellynPodcast website: https://podpage.com/?via=truthandtranscendencePodcast coach: https://bestpodcastcoach.org/TruthandTranscendence/ref/2/Brain fitness: https://braingym.fitness/ref/3/VA: https://va.world/contact/ref/1/

How do leaders bring back pragmatism without losing compassion?The events of 2020/21 triggered a mass rising of compassionate leadership around the globe.  Not everywhere.  But enough to be remarkable. Our people were suffering.  We had to step up and support them.  They needed this, our businesses required it.Now ... many organisations are facing the requirement for a return to pragmatism.  Kindness on its own is not enough for ongoing organisational flourishing and profitability.How do we re-incorporate pragmatic leadership, yet without losing the crucial compassionate aspect we've emphasised so strongly over the last couple of years?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~GET THE EBOOK  yesyounow.today/chairmanAutonomy in Relationship - the Human Side of Being a Non-Exec Chairman.ASK ME ANYTHING  yesyounow.today/podcastSend in requests for future episodes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WATCH THE VIDEO yesyounow.today/selfmasteryHow and Why to Elevate your Life.GET TO KNOW youtube.comTake in Catherine's first-hand responses to the challenges and opportunities leaders are facing today.CHECK OUT YESYOUNOW with Catherine Llewellyn yesyounow.todayFind out more about Yes You Now Advanced Strategic Self-Mastery for Entrepreneurs and Business Owners.BOOK A CALL go.oncehub.com/booka15minutecallIf you would like a chat with Catherine, you can schedule a 15-minute call.Support the show===🤝 Join our Being Space Community✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com✦ Website: https://beingspace.world✦ YouTube: / https://youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn✦ Insta: / https://instagram.com/beingspace.world/✦ Facebook: / https://facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld✦ TikTok: / https://tiktok.com/@beingspace.world______Donate: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donatePodcast network: https://joinpodmatch.com/catherinellewellynPodcast website: https://podpage.com/?via=truthandtranscendencePodcast coach: https://bestpodcastcoach.org/TruthandTranscendence/ref/2/Brain fitness: https://braingym.fitness/ref/3/VA: https://va.world/contact/ref/1/

Non-Exec Chairmen have Desires, Fears and Values tooIt's all too easy to forget that people in senior roles are ... people.I had the rare opportunity to sit down with a number of Non-Exec Chairmen and hear about some of the desires, fears and values they took with them into the role. ~ What is a non-exec Chairman?~ What kind of people do we find in the role?~ How having 'arrived' allows for powerful autonomy.~ How autonomy makes room for benevolence and higher level motivations.~ How maturity generates realism in the face of valid fears.~ Values honed by years of experience and contribution.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ GET THE EBOOK  yesyounow.today/chairmanAutonomy in Relationship - the Human Side of Being a Non-Exec Chairman.ASK ME ANYTHING yesyounow.today/podcastSend in requests for future episodes.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~WATCH THE VIDEO yesyounow.today/selfmasteryHow and Why to Elevate your Life.GET TO KNOW  youtube.comTake in Catherine's first-hand responses to the challenges and opportunities leaders are facing today.YESYOUNOW with Catherine Llewellyn  yesyounow.todayYes You Now Advanced Strategic Self-Mastery for Entrepreneurs and Business Owners.BOOK A CALL  go.oncehub.com/booka15minutecallIf you would like a chat with Catherine, you can schedule a 15-minute call.Support the show===🤝 Join our Being Space Community✦ Podcast: https://truthandtranscendence.com✦ Website: https://beingspace.world✦ YouTube: / https://youtube.com/@BEINGSPACEcatherinellewellyn✦ Insta: / https://instagram.com/beingspace.world/✦ Facebook: / https://facebook.com/BeingSpaceWorld✦ TikTok: / https://tiktok.com/@beingspace.world______Donate: https://truthandtranscendence.com/donatePodcast network: https://joinpodmatch.com/catherinellewellynPodcast website: https://podpage.com/?via=truthandtranscendencePodcast coach: https://bestpodcastcoach.org/TruthandTranscendence/ref/2/Brain fitness: https://braingym.fitness/ref/3/VA: https://va.world/contact/ref/1/

How do leaders balance getting things done and making our people feel good?A client sent me this request for a Truth & Transcendence episode ..."Maya Angelou said something I think is very very powerful ...'I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel 'In this context how do we as leaders balance our need to get things done, and making people feel good.
