Jen Hope: What to do when you don't feel like a leader

Permission to Kick Ass

Jen Hope is back for round two today, and I can't WAIT for you to hear this one. We're digging into that nebulous idea of "leadership" and why it's not a dealbreaker if you don't feel like a leader most days.
Can't-Miss Moments:

• Jen and I rap on the "unconscious competence" conundrum, and how to see yourself more objectively (and AWESOMELY)
  
• Bold claim: resistance is a GOOD thing, and something to lean into instead of avoid. Jen and I have some ideas on how you can use those hard lessons as leverage to get where you want to go...
  
• Car singing? Dance parties? We're getting good and ranty on what I do to get myself out of an anxiety spiral and get the energy back up...
  
• Among the things we made up as a society: money, rules, deadlines, the way things supposedly work. So why not let Jen and I help you make up a few things that work for YOU?
  
• Why Jen and I agree that a top priority of being in business is JOY.
