Скачать или смотреть Permission to Feel It All: Gratitude, Resilience, and Authentic Leadership with Lori Adams-Brown ...

Some conversations stay with us because they name what we’ve been living but haven’t had words for yet. This episode is one of those moments, a reminder that gratitude does not require us to deny our pain, and authenticity does not demand perfection.



As we revisit this Thanksgiving message, one of the most downloaded and shared episodes of the year, Lori reflects on what it means to hold multiple truths at the same time. In a year marked by layoffs, uncertainty, grief, and global upheaval, this episode offers permission to be honest and grateful, resilient and tender.



This is not a call to toxic positivity. It’s an invitation to courageous leadership by showing up fully human, holding space for ourselves and others, and leading with compassion even when life is messy.



In this episode, you’ll hear about:




•


Why gratitude and grief are not opposites, and why leaders need both




•


How holding “two truths” builds psychological safety and trust




•


The difference between compassion and dismissal during times of loss




•


What authentic leadership looks like in seasons of uncertainty




•


Practical ways to support others facing layoffs, trauma, or transition
